Thanks everyone! I love to hear what everyone thinks
I would love to sell DH on the idea of getting a narrow band to pair, but he seems very insistant right now that I still wear my current rings every day and this will just be an addition to the set. I don't blame him though cause we have only been married two years and I AM getting this a bit early, mainly because diamond prices are going up.
my bf sounds the same way, but you may have to sit him down and tell him that you love both pieces but it still is your finger, and they don't compliment each other but rather detract and you want to honor both pieces in their separate entities because they're both statement pieces. But another option if you are happy with it is the picture you just posted. but remember make yourself happy! of course honor your husband since he is the one who gave it but i personally think you'd be happier if you were able to wear the pieces separately.
This is a nice suggestion too, but I can understand if you don't want to take of the sapphire just yet!Am I too late to chime in an opinion?
First of all I love the set, both wedding band and e ring, and I'm a big fan of halos. Sometimes I get the occasional lust for simpler settings especially on days I 'm casual in jeans etc but that's not too often.
My opinion is this: keep your set as it is. It is gorgeous, and not "too much bling". Of course there is a time and place for everything, and sometimes both your rings on the same finger will be too much so you can do what I do and wear them on separate hands. I never take off my wedding band, and I usually pair it with 2 eternity rings. I wear the e ring on the other hand because I can't wear them all together on one finger, use it more like a cocktail ring. Depending on the situation I will add or remove something depending on my mood and where I'm going. Hope my opinion is useful.
Again I love the set and the halo, no need to change anything.
Hmmm... Better pic here.
I think that your ring is amazing just the way it is. However, do what makes you happy and not worry about the " haters " !
Love the ring, may I ask how many carats is the diamond? I am looking for a solitaire diamond. The last one I look at was 1.5 carats, e, vvsi, excellent for grades, Gia and it was going for $35k. Do you think this is a good price?Upon checking back in I realized the I forgot to mention there will be no gap because when the jeweler makes my ring, he will style the under gallery different- the ring I was modeling was not really made to fit flush with a band like mine. Also, because my actual diamond is larger than the stone in the e-ring it will stand out a little more against the wedding band. Thanks for everyone's opinions, I am going to wait a few more days to decide....Although if I had to make up my mind right now I would still do it
Honestly, I was considering a solitaire, but that was only if I had gotten the size I originally wanted. With the recent price increases, I got priced out and had to cut back on size a bit
Thank you to everyone for all of the lovely complimentsand cheers to all of my fellow halo lovers!
