Do you have big hands? I think a 15mm ring would look odd on me.

I will give a vote of confidence for white-gold (I see no reason to go platinum....WAY to pricey for a similar look to WG). I have a comfort-fit band, though not sure what the thinkness is, and once the novelty of wearing it wore off, I don't even notice its there anymore. I got married Oct 20 2001 and its still in excellent shape. You should try to buy your bands in the same place you bought your engagement ring, they typically offer a discount for a return buyer...especially if you buy both bands together. Hers ended up being free when we bought the set (after discount of course).
One thing I do suggest is once you have them, get the jeweler to do a "Rodium(sp?) treatment" on the rings, its brings back luster etc..makes the rings look new after you get some wear on them, also takes the inherent yellow undertone to gold and gets rid of it.
Congrats and good luck with the wedding.
The reason people go for platinum ( why I did) is because it is virtually indestructable. I NEVER take my ring off and white gold just could put up the abuse I give my ring.
