Wedding Band Help!

[care73]

I never thought choosing a wedding band would be so difficult. I have been creeping this site for weeks now trying to decide and I just CANT! I have a 1.20ct round Solitaire on a 2mm white gold band. I have narrowed it down to a .60 ct triple row pave band OR the 11 stone 1.05ct 1/2 eternity band. Both are from Gabriel&CO. Which one should I go with & WHY??? I will attach pictures of my ring and both of the options. I should add that I will be changing my setting to a 6 prong setting before the wedding. Thanks in advance!!

I would need to see photos of the second one but right now I'd say definitely the second. The first seems to swollow your diamond right up!

Thanks! after seeing these pictures I agree. It didn't look as bad in person

I'm kind of a less is more person, so I'd go with the single row ring. I also think there's a bit too much of a clash of styles going on with the pave ring... I think it's the gentle curved dome of the band versus the more acute curve (or is it a knife edge?) of the e-ring that's bothering me.

That can happen, photos looking different.

Where a very discerning bunch, here, too. So if your heart is set on the knife edge one, no one will say it looks bad

If it's between the two, the second. The first looks a little costume and I don't know how the pave will hold up/look when not scrupulously clean.

I also think plain metal would look very nice, 1.5 or 2mm, with an eternity style maybe added later.

Agreed - not a fan of the first band.

Thanks all! Definitely going to get the half eternity 1 ctw. Any recommendations on where to purchase? Im not necessarily set on any particular brand. My budget is $2200

Do you need platinum or gold?

White gold

I have been trying to decide the same thing. My e-ring is a 1.5 ct solitaire. After long discussions with a fellow pricescoper, I have decided that I want my band to be about the same width as my e-ring - so fairly narrow. The picture below is the one I've tried on so far that I liked (band with 3 pointers in it)

That looks beautiful!
