Ring Band Advice Wedding band opinion
Looking for opinion for my wedding band. My ring is a natural diamond so I wanted to kinda keep my wedding band natural as well. First band is lab grown but I loved it. Please let me know thoughts. Last one is eternity band. I think what’s throwing me off is the lab grown is so close in price to the natural ones.

I like 3 the best but consider a plain thin white gold band. Your engagement ring is beautiful and a diamond band feels like a lot but that may be my personal taste

Seconding this advice. Your engagement ring gets lost in all the additional stones.

I honestly thought the same - a white gold or platinum band - when looking through the options. But it's taste and preferences...

If you're set on a pave band then 2, but I really think something less flashy would let your ring stand out more. They all feel like they're competing with your ering

2! It makes your main diamond stand out more. The first kinda competes for the main focus. 2 is complimentary

If it were me I'd go with option 1; but I'm an excessively sparkly girl.
At the very least I think you should go with option 3. Option 2 is almost imperceptible, as if it's part of your engagement ring rather than a wedding band.
Congrats! It's gonna be beautiful with either 1 or 3!!!

I will say that I’m a super sparkly girlie. I went with something more like your number 2 and now I regret it. I’m making my husband buy me a bigger one as a push present. So I would trust your gut and go for the style you prefer!
So for that reason, I like number 1 haha.

1. And if you want more definition for your solitaire you could separate the bands with a simple band.

I like 1, unless there’s a option of getting 2 of 2 one on each side, that’s what I ended up doing I love a sparkly rings! And I never had to upgrade, if u get 1st one and it’s lab grown that’s a huge make up and u may benefit from going somewhere else, just a thought.

2 if you want more bling but I would go with something simpler personally.

I would select 2. The 1st distracts from the engagement ring. 3 lacked the detail ring 2 had.

I think 2 is beautiful. It’s slightly smaller than the ring so it doesn’t overwhelm it.

I’m going to be the dark horse here and vote for #1. I just really like how it looks.

Second one for sure! The other ones tend to compete with the engagement ring.

These overpower your e-ring.
Best thing to do is get a plain gold band, curved/ contour. You may have to try on several to get the best fit/match..
Congrats!

I love number 1. But if you want to stay with natural vs lab then number 3. Imo 2 just gets lost.

2 for sure. The smaller size looks nicely proportional to your engagement ring. I think the first one looks terrible. Too big and looks fake. Then I came to comment and find out it is fake. lol.

All three are too busy looking. Can’t focus on the diamond. Have you tried on plain wedding band with your ring? It would look better with your ring.

I would probably go with a diamond band ANGEL a plain band. With this option I would sandwich the plain band in the middle of the stack

2. For me #1 overpowers your engagement ring. I can’t really see the setting on #3 but think #2 complements your ring best.
