Five Golden Rings!

So I have decided I want to get a wedding band - or two - to go with my engagement ring. I initially just decided to wear my engagement ring alone since I am not all that into jewelry. However, lately I have been feeling that something is missing (plus I am sick of people asking me when I am getting married because they assume since I don't have a band I am still just engaged!). Anyway, my debate now is whether or not to get one band or two. I like it both ways so I thought I would get some opinions of others. Here are some pictures I took with some make-shift bands (old rings from my jewelry box). I know they are not very clear, but my camera was not wanting to focus for me. I hope that you can still see them well enough to form an opinion. The first picture is what my ring looks like now, the second one is with a single band, and the third is with a double band. If you have a favorite let me know by making a comment or voting on the pole to the right.

I think two look good. Call one a wedding band & the other an anniversary band. It'll even it out & look cute!

I like 2 bands also. In fact, I'm trying to convince Phil that's what he wants to get me for our 5 year anniversary - a second band! =)

I have noticed your rock you slide shows, but I can't take the credit. I emailed shelby in desperation one day because I had lots of pictures I wanted to put up but didn't want people ot have to scroll for eternity to get to the end of the blog...so shelby is the wise woman of blogging! =)

How is that thesis coming by the way? You spent a whole Friday there? Yuck!!!

I only wear my engagement ring and I've NEVER been asked when I'm getting married. I'm not really into the jewelry either and that's why I chose not to have a band. I do sometimes dream up what one I might like would look like though. Good luck on your decision. I wasn't any help because I voted none.

I would do two bands. I too only have my engagement ring and have been thinking of adding to it myself. It is hard to decide but I like the idea of the balance of two rings.

Ooh, I like two--I've been asked when I'm getting married too, and it bugs.

it looks like I'm the odd man out, but I like it with only one wedding band.

Mom here. I like the addition of one band, if you decide to do it. The assymetry is interesting and very pretty. That's funny because mine has one on each side. I know better than to ask Dad for anything beyond the original, as once was quite enough trauma for him. Have fun dreaming it up!
