Anyone else torn between a wedding band with some bling and a plain one? Our Rabbi told us we need plain rings for the ceremony. FH is totally fine with a plain gold band, but I feel torn. I want to wear the ring I get married in, but I feel like it's too plain and I'm not in love with the way it looks with my e-ring. I was toying with the idea of 2 very thin bands, one plain and one with diamond chips, but rings are super expensive.
I think I definitely want something with diamonds. My engagement ring has tiny diamonds on each side of the center one, but I want band to add more sparkle.
I originally just wanted a plain band because I love my engagement ring so much that I didn't want anything to steal it thunder...until I tried on a diamond band and I was sold. Lol
Typically in the Jewish tradition, isn't your wedding band worn on the right hand? I feel like I've heard this but that most people switch it, because of modern day expectations of wearing on the left. If so, you could wear the plain band on your right hand and the fancy sparkly one with your engagement right on your left.

You could always use this for your ceremony
and have this on your other hand?
I'm going with a plain band because I am not a typically blingy person, and my e-ring already has enough for me.
So I went with a diamond one. Small chips nothing too blingy and I got a really good deal so I may be able to get a plain band too! Thanks for all the help!
My mother wants me to get married with a ring that is completely smooth. In Judaism the rings are supposed to be solid, smooth, no grooves or bumps (i.e.: diamonds/blingy) because it is supposed to symbolize a solid marriage. It is another one of our traditions. I am getting married in my blingy ring. I am not having a Jewish wedding. I say do what you want to do. Do it for you (unless you're religious)
