This weekend Aaron and I were walking around Soho, shopping for some fancy clothes for the Webby Awards, when we decided to drop into the Stuart Moore store to take a look at wedding rings. Aaron bought my engagement ring (a Niessing tension setting) at Stuart Moore last year, so we were hoping to find the matching wedding band.
The bad news was that Stuart Moore doesn’t carry the plain Niessing wedding bands, but that didn’t turn out to be a problem. Aaron and I both picked out Stuart Moore original pieces that look great together.
- On the left – My engagement ring (newly shined, yay!) gets blinged out with a diamond eternity band.
- On the right – Aaron wanted plain and simple, and he found it in this platinum ring.
Even though none of these three rings was meant to go together, I think they make a really nice set.
We’re having the rings shipped to my parents in Phoenix, who will bring them out for the wedding in October. There are two good reasons for this: first, we saved $700 by avoiding New York State sales tax, and second, this way I won’t be tempted to wear my pretty new ring before the wedding!


OOOoo pretty!
