Flash you wedding rings!

samjh87, 26 September, 2012 at 10:55 Posted on Planning 0 22

Hi!

Need a bit of inspiration.

Was initially thiking a plain band but now I have started looking I am really unsure! I have quite long but skinny fingers so definitely not looking too wide

Engagement ring is a single solitaire with no need for a shaped band.

Would love to see what everyone else has chosen to give me some ideas.

    My engagement ring is a crisscut diamond (like an oblong one ?) and I wanted bling, so I've gone for a palladium band with 14 princess cut diamonds in a channel. Will flash photo of mine & OHs but it's rubbish quality...


    Try one of those companies that come to your house with hundreds of samples, it's what I did, I spent over an hour umming and ahhing over 2 different ones and they let you take as long as you need! xx

    Thank you! I used Bliss Rings. I have only ever read good reviews of them but I have actually had a problem with them - they only put in 13 diamonds instead of 14! But their customer service has been excellent, the owner came right out to collect the ring in person and it has been sent away to be fixed ASAP, with some free cufflinks thrown in ? so I would still recommend them.

    Lisaruby, I don't have it back yet ☹️ that's the pic I took to send to OH as soon as they came in. They are ringing me today to let me know the progress with the ring so fingers crossed we're getting there! xx

    Thank you ?

    Mine could have done with a shaped ring but tbh I wasn't that fussed, there is a small gap but it doesn't really bother me. I tried one of those rings that have a pinch in the middle and although it sat really nice against my engagement ring, you couldn't get many diamonds in it! ha ha I'm a right girly girl, love my bling ? x

    Aww do you ? how lovely! I thought of getting the inside of mine engraved but I chose a 3mm band so it wasn't wide enough. They look so lovely though don't they ? x

    Ta da!!


    It was a bit more expensive and blingy than I was originally going for but it's got to last forever so it's worth the extra money!!

    I've got really small hands so I decided to go for something thin. I think you just need to try a few styles and see what looks right. Before we started looking I had it in mind that I wanted a ring with squared edges (not sure of the technical term) but they looked silly on.

    Yay! I was hoping for a wedding ring flash like this!! I just came back from USA and we bought our wedding rings out there because the exchange rate was so good! Wasn't that easy to find a wedding band with baguette cut diamonds to match my ER but we had success! And think it looks like a matching set too so that's great! OH's doesn't match mine at all but he wanted yellow gold so I'm happy with that!! Smiley smile

    Lovely wedding and engagement rings everyone!

    This is mine (sorry it's massive, first flash ever!)


    and goes perfectly with my engagement ring, as a plain band made it look like I was only wearing one ring, the diamonds at the bottom made it stand out. I'm not really a blingy person, but we loved the ring! OH's is a mix of rose gold and platinum, he's really pleased with his too.....can't wait to start wearing them very soon!
