You can always wear your engagement ring on your right hand once you get married. Lots of women don’t even wear their engagement ring after their wedding except for special occasions (as rings can be bulky).

May I suggest Ritani? This is where my engagement ring is from and where we got our wedding bands. They set their diamonds high enough so you can easily wear any style band you want, and not have that odd shape to the band. Plus, they have incredible craftsmanship. http://www.ritani.com/home

I have two wedding bands:
1. A plain 2 mm palladium band.
2. A band that matches the engagement ring, but one has a single row of stones on the top (the shoulders) Like this: http://www.moissaniteco.com/18mm-moissanite-round-channel-eternity-ring-p-5516.html

I don’t wear either though as I’m not married yet. When I am, I can use the 2mm band as a spacer between the two rings.

I understand with pave vs. channel set the stones would likely stick out more and you would then not achieve a flush fit with a wedding band and you would have problems with the stones scratching the band. As I see it your options are:

1. Get a band with only stones on the top and allow it to get scratched up a little.
2. Get a band with stones on three sides, but 1/3 of those stones will be hidden.
3. Get a spacer ring between the band and e-ring which will sustain all of the damage. You can get something really tiny.
4. You may be able to have the ring soldered, only if there is some metal on the sides to be soldered.

You will note some rings with pave on the side are actually on an angle so a band will fit flush with it, here’s an example: http://www.moissaniteco.com/round-moissanite-pave-wedding-set-p-8395.html It looks like this might be the case with that particular leon mege ring too. Here’s a more similar example: http://www.moissaniteco.com/round-moissanite-pave-style-wedding-set-p-9707.html

And, you’ve noted that this style of ring means a lot of stones will be hidden once you add a wedding band. Sure makes those stones kind of pointless, but you like what you like. While 1/3 of the stones from my engagement ring will be hidden when I wear a wedding band, I don’t plan on always wearing a wedding band so it won’t always be a problem. But, my ring was very affordable, if you’re spending a pretty penny on those stones it might be hard to then just hide them.

This 6mm Tungsten Magnum™ band has a satin finish and weighs approximately 11 grams. This ring may be engraved on the inside with up to 50 characters. Tungsten carbide is a true innovation in jewelry. Tungsten is virtually impossible to scratch and is much heavier and denser than gold. Metal gram weight varies based on the ring size selected. This item is not available in Zales stores.
