I am wondering how many of you have wedding ring and engagement ring soldered together. I can't decide if I should do it or not.

I don't and I think it is personal, BUT, when I used to work at a Jewelry store I can not tell you how many women came in wanting to un-solder after a while wink

I have not. I don't like how it looks, and I like 2 rings. BUT, my rings are showing wear after just 5 years, and I don't even wear them everyday.

I personally wouldn't. I like. Look of to rings, also I like the flexibility of being able to wear different stacking bands with my solitaire.

I have my three soldered.

I have not regretted it. But maybe this is because I have alternatives to wear too- like a plain band and my moissanite rings if I want to do so...

I would not. For my rings now I would not want to be "stuck" with the bands always facing up the same way, as I like the variety in how they face up day to day, or without flexibility to wear the bands on their own, or less of them, or in a different order. It would also make for a very wide ring!

I had mine soldered together, but it was a solitaire and a ring wrap and the wrap was destroying my prongs on my E-Ring...but it drove me nuts because I like to change it up once in awhile so I had mine undone and then I did away with the wrap, I really disliked the wrap....

I personally would not do it, but that is because I don't always wear both rings together and switch up what I wear quite often. I also wouldn't want to damage them.

Mine are. My wedding band is not a perfect circle ... it's shaped to match my engagement ring so I had them soldered together rather than have them constantly spinning and not line up properly.

I have no regrets and I like that my engagement ring and wedding band "are one" just like my our marriage. wink

I do have another wedding band that I wear separate from my engagement/wedding set as they don't match. I sometimes wear my Asha with it and sometimes wear the band plain when I'm not wearing my set.
