Matching the Wedding Band to the Engagement Ring

Matching wedding bands are a sign of unity. Oftentimes the happy couple on their big day take a picture holding hands which will really showcase the rings. These are pieces that you wear for hopefully the rest of your life so you want to make sure that they work together and have a lot of design durability. Here are a few tips for finding matching wedding bands.

It can be difficult to find a wedding band that will match the engagement ring. Some couples choose to just go with one bring. This saves more than just a little bit of money. At the same time they can spend a lot more money on the engagement ring to get one quality piece instead of two cheaper pieces. This is a more contemporary version of wedding jewelry. You'll really need to discuss this with your bride beforehand to make sure that she is okay with only getting one ring.

Another option to match a wedding band to an engagement ring is to just go with the same style and color. This allows you to mix and match different pieces and both items are something that you really love. A jeweler can help you find pieces that will fit snugly together. You'll want to stick with the same diamond shape and metal color in each piece. This allows you to really get a lot of continuity and at the same time it will still be different from everyone else's. This can still be very classic and speak to your own personal design style at the same time.

His and Hers Sets

Not only will you have to match the wedding band to the engagement ring you also have to match the wedding band to your spouses ring. This is important to lend an air of continuity. You might not have the same budget for each piece. This doesn't mean that you both can’t get a piece that really has a lot of wow factor. This means you should really work together to find matching wedding bands that speak to your style as a couple.

An easy way to match wedding bands is to go with the same metal color. This can be difficult in a modern design style because of all the different metal options that are around. Sure, it's easy to just match yellow gold with yellow gold. It's also easy to match white gold with white gold or platinum. However, it has become a little more tricky when you consider the more modern metals. For instance, she might have a rose gold wedding band and it can be very difficult to track down one of these items for him. You also might have trouble if your husband wants a titanium band and you want something more high end for your own set.

A remedy for this is just to consider a tri colored metal theme. This will add a lot of interest to your piece. You'll still have a wow factor even if you can't afford a large diamond piece. This is also perfect for a groom because he can get the same color of metal as his brides’ set and at the same time he can express his own personal style. These pieces have a lot of design durability because you'll be able to mix and match all different colors of metal with them into the future.

Affordable Sets

Balancing your budget for finding matching wedding bands can be especially difficult. It's not easy to find pieces that you both love in your price range. This might be the only jewelry that you buy in your entire lifetime so you really want to make sure that it counts. At the same time you don't want to be paying off the jewelry for the rest of your life. There are a few easy ways to save money. Your jeweler might give you a discount or even a free ring if you buy all three pieces from him. This also makes it a lot easier to find a set.

You can also save money by going with more simple versions. This can be perfect for a men's wedding bands simply because it can be more durable for someone who works with their hands. It also gives you the option to save a little bit of money. Your wedding band could be studded with diamonds and can be in the same color of gold. You can also just have a few small diamond accents. You really get the same feeling of your ring without spending all of the money.
