Most channel-set anniversary bands will fit flush up against your wedding set and will look awesome.<\/p>\n<p>That is, as long as you have a flat side for the band to fit flush against. <\/p>\n<p>\nIf you have a <strong>solitaire engagement ring<\/strong> and a channel set diamond wedding band (like the photo), you&#8217;ll have no problems. <strong>These are the best types of rings to add onto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Make it match:<\/h2>\n<p>\nMost people that have rings like these will buy an anniversary ring that <strong>matches their current wedding ring<\/strong> and wear it on the other side of their engagement ring. <\/p>\n<p>\nThis is, in my opinion, <strong>the perfect look. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But, if your wedding set has uneven sides or pieces that stick out, or if it <strong>makes your rings too wide to wear all together on one finger<\/strong>, then you have to do something different. <\/p>\n<p>\nWearing a band against your wedding set that leaves <strong>gaps between them is not a pretty sight. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>Prongs or channels?<\/h2>\n<p>\nLikewise, if the anniversary band you bought is <strong>not<\/strong> a channel-set diamond ring, then you&#8217;ll have more problems as well. <\/p>\n<p>\nA lot of anniversary rings have raised prongs, sit up higher, have uneven sides and even really wide mountings (<strong>marquise shaped anniversary rings<\/strong> are known for this). Those don&#8217;t work so well. <\/p>\n<p><h2>So what do you do then?<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Simple!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>You wear the anniversary ring on your other hand<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>\n(That&#8217;s the right hand.)<\/p>\n<p>\nIf it doesn&#8217;t fit flush or look good against your wedding rings, then move it to the opposite hand. <\/p>\n<p>\nUsually the best finger for an anniversary ring is <strong>the ring finger<\/strong> (finger next to your pinky). That way, it will stand out, look nice, be protected, and won&#8217;t take away from the beauty of your wedding set.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Order is important!<\/h2>\n<p>Do keep in mind, that if you wear all 3 rings together on one finger, <strong>order is important.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The proper order of rings is this:<\/strong> wedding band goes on first (<strong>sits closest to the heart<\/strong>). Then comes the engagement ring in the middle. Then the anniversary ring goes on <strong>last<\/strong> (closest to your fingertips).<\/p>\n<p>And once again&#8230; <\/p>\n<p><h2>Happy anniversary&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>Cheers! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nHere&#8217;s to <strong>plenty more years.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Happy Anniversary!
