Did you get them custom made? Or buy one already set?
If you got it custom made how did they work it - did they send it out - or did they make the mold in front of you - I don't want it to leave my sight but every place I talk to wants to send it somewhere - and thinks I'm strange for not wanting to part with it.
Anyway...Also do you have pictures of your rings?

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
I would like to have one custom made to match my e-ring. I don't know if we will be able to afford it. I'm not sure if we can really go over the $500 mark right now. Maybe just a regular band now, and the custom one as an anniv gift later on.

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
This is not an area we're slurging in. In Jewish tradition, the wedding ring is supposed to be plain anyway. So I'm just getting a 2mm yello gold wedding band, which I'll wear with my ering, and FI is getting a plain white and yellow gold band.

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
I am ordering mine becasue they only had it in the yellow gold and not platinum, but this is what it looks like in yellow gold. I have a princess cut solitaire that goes with it.
these are ours-- ETS: that our rings together were about $1000 Mine matches my ering exactly-i'll post a pic of them together but it's a little blurry-you can get the point--i didn't part with my ering for them to make it and i don't blame you for not wanting to! mine was already designed--specifically for my ring setting, but not custom made--does that make sense?
We havent even started to look and havent decided where to go!

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
I am getting my ring custom made to match my e-ring. I am going to Elsa. She is a vendor on the boards and a very nice woman. Last saturday, the actual wax mold was made of my wedding band. She brought me in the back and I sat with the woman while she mad e the mold of the ring. In a few weeks we will be picking out the diamonds for my ring. It is platinum with 6 diamonds, 1/2 carat. FH's ring is one that he saw in the place, but with some modifications. It is going to be white gold. Polished & Brushed, and his will have 5 diamonds .15 carat. I can't wait to see the rings actually finished! I will definately post pics!i o

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
I did not have my rings custom made. The first ring (the one I got married with) was my Grandmothers- a platimum and .25 carat ring in a fishtail setting from 1951- I now wear this on my right hand. Frankly- we couldn't jusitfy 1-2k on a wedding band when we are trying to save for a house. Recently, my DH gave me a .25 carat white gold wedding band that more exactly matches my e-ring. It was like $250 (he knows the guy that owns the shop). I love the fact that now I have 2 and that we didn't go into debt.

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
I wouldn't know!! My FH bought my wedding band and I'm not allowed to see it until the wedding. His theory 'well, if I can't see you in your dress then you can't see the ring - that'll be your surprise'. It pissed me off at first but now I'm excited!! And I trust his taste he picked out the most perfect engagement ring!!

Re: A question about your wedding bands (rings)
I didn't have mine custom made...but it matches my e-ring perfectly. We got them both for $1000 at a Jewelry Exchange here in NJ where we live. I love it...I am always trying it on when FH isn't around...heheh :)
