I've been having the worst time deciding on a wedding band... I want something unique, but I can't find anything I like that goes well with my engagement ring. My ring is a simple princess cut solitaire. I've tried on a few different styles, I feel like plain bands are too boring. Pavé bands are really pretty, and my original choice, but I feel like they're so common. And nothing else seems to geometrically complement my stone😩Does anyone else have a princess cut solitaire? What kind of band do you have/are you thinking about?
Oops I hit send too fast! I got my engagement ring at La Boutique del Gioello , in Vaughan! Amazing selection! I know they can do custom work as well, and it's a a little closer to a you if you are in Toronto. If you are willing to travel a bit, I got my wedding band made by Laura Tedesco, in Hamilton. She's worth the drive! Here is a pic to give you an idea. You can check out her custom pieces on her Instagram page. I always love seeing what she comes up with.
They are all pretty! I can see why it's hard to choose. I like the 3rd and 4th pictures only because you said you want something more unique. I wanted the same thing for my ring and band so both my pieces are unique to me which I love! So I feel your pain! It was a long process lol Have you ever considered going to a custom jeweller? My wedding band was only $1100 . May seem like alot but what I was finding in jewellery stores were more and generic and not really what I wanted. I would have settled. Have you gone back to the jeweller where you bought your engagement ring? Sometimes they can recommend someone.

I really like the second band, it adds a bit of bling which looks beautiful with your ring!
I like the 2nd picture with the plain band. It looks as if it was made to complement your engagement ring. They look like a set. The others are nice but don't seem to belong the same as the plain one.

The 3rd pictures is my favourite! Its so classic... I also am struggling with which band to pick.. I feel like some are in-style now and lovely but in 10 years I may want something more classic. Let me know what you pick! They are honestly all beautiful.

Mine are similar to the 2nd picture, but both bands are thicker. If ever you were to just wear the wedding band alone, which band would you prefer on its own? That's what I asked myself when I couldn't decide.
There's so many to choose from and everyone has their own opinions, its easy to get caught up in it all and change your mind a million times.
I've i come across anything with princess cut diamonds, i'll post it here.

Thank you, Carol! I think I may have to look into that as well, I'm not so sure I like any of the generic styles I've been seeing☹️
We are getting our bands made from a family of jewellers that do it from their home. All the guys at work use them, and many of my friends. I would suggest finding something like this. Our jeweller asked us to take pics of everything we liked, we only like certain things on the band's that we have been Looking at and he is able to put our favorites together. He did a great job on my engagement ring and will be able to make the band to match.

I think I know what you mean!! Can't wait to see 😊
The band I'm getting has a weird shape that kinda fits right behind the stone but goes up so there will be a small gap between them but will look like one ring. When I get it I'll share a photo!

Also please ignore the rough state of my hands, especially in the first picture lol. I burned my ring finger baking cookies and got engaged a week later, ruining any chance at taking nice pics the day I got my ring hahahah
