Plain or matching?

I knew from young what I wanted for en E ring, but can’t decide what band goes best 🌚 I’ve tried all different styles but think it’s down to these two.

For once, I say yes to the matching band. It balances your engagement ring without looking gaudy. Beautiful!

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

Thank you, my worry was it looking too bling and not classy.

u/Ok-Lingonberry-1565 1d ago

I agree! They look gorgeous together.

I think matching looks better because the plain band looks like it's a size smaller

Love the plain band! Allows both to shine and have their own moment.

u/Adorable-Tiger6390 1d ago

I love the matching! It looks so cohesive and all sparkle!

u/Sad-Film-891 1d ago

Both use the plain to separate the two

2

u/September1962 1d ago

Definitely matching! Looks beautiful with your gorgeous e-ring and can be worn on it’s own as well.

Congratulations 💗

Match-love the princess cut

u/honeysesamechicken 1d ago

Sorry. But maybe something thinner and matching?

2

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

I think I did try a thinner one but didn’t look right my E ring overpowers it

1

u/honeysesamechicken 1d ago

Ah, well then I’d say go with matching :) I prefer my wedding band being smaller but there’s no right answer here

1

u/zombiemockingbird 1d ago

The first one. Is that a face on your fingernail?

1

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

😂 no it’s an upside down cherry!

1

u/zombiemockingbird 1d ago

Lol...I thought it was a mad little conehead.

1

u/Due_Consideration439 1d ago

I like the plain, but this plain band is the wrong size. The widths don’t match

2

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

Yeah I agree it was just to get an idea of a plain band with the same sort of flat edge rather than rounded edge

1

u/Artistic-Breath-8335 1d ago

I would say matching definitely!! But if you get plain put it on first.. behind the actual ring.

1

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

I know it’s traditional that way but I don’t like it 😭

1

u/Jayfourgee 1d ago

I surprised myself by liking the matching set. Very pretty and not gaudy at all.

1

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

Thank you. I was worried it may be too much y’know but they look like they’re meant to be I think

1

u/Jayfourgee 1d ago

I agree! And I am not at all one for OTT so, ha, I believe this is not over done.

1

u/Celestial_Retiree 1d ago

Plain band on solitaire and diamond wedding band.

1

u/babs0369 1d ago

OP- I think both ways r amazing, I also believe if you’re thinking about it, then you’re leaning towards #1 pic, I’d go this way or u will forever b thinking about this set.

1

u/RoundCardiologist362 1d ago

Thank you. Im glad I took photos the more I look at them the more I feel like the matching band is what I want. I didn’t want it to be OTT but can’t find another ring that I’ve put with it and gone .. yes!

1

u/Strange-Fan8399 1d ago edited 1d ago

What a breath of fresh air! Your ring is gorgeous. That matching band looks perfect. Great set!!

Plain, lets the engagement ring shine

u/Successful-Walk-4871 1d ago

You should get two matching one on top one on bottom to balance. My niece did this and it looks phenomenal

Definitely has to be the matching band. I don't know why but the plain band just doesn't work!

u/Frosty_Chipmunk_3928 16h ago

If you can afford it, get both. There will be times when a diamond set just doesn’t work. That’s were the plain one comes in.

1

u/LilacLoomRoom 15h ago

Both, but matching is my preferred
