How to Choose the Right Wedding Band for Him


It used to be that the bride had her finger decorated with very elaborate wedding bands that consisted of gold and diamonds and was something she would forever show off to the rest of the world as her own personal treasure.

Of course you cannot assume the degree of love just based on the wedding bands however, that was the standard that was used.

On the other hand, the groom's wedding band was akin to a small gold leash that was a simple gold ring that sometimes had an inscription on the inside and over time the ring stopped fitting so great thus over time making it very difficult to remove. 

If the groom wanted elaborate wedding bands he had to have them specially made or pick from a set of some of the most horrendous looking wedding bands anyone has ever seen.  So, the wife got the glamour and the husband got the mini handcuffs.

Over the years a lot about wedding bands has changed and that is a good thing for the husband.
Now wedding band sets are complete sets which include a wide assortment of  ring designs and elements for the groom. 
So now the groom gets to use his imagination when it comes to choosing wedding bands.  With some grooms this is a wonderful thing, with others it could be the biggest mistake they could ever make. 

Make It Coordinate Well

Well coordinated wedding bands don't just match each other but they match the bride and groom as well.  You can get wedding bands made of gold, silver, or platinum and the stones you can have put in the rings are also a wide variety.  Take your time and talk to your jeweler because chances are that the one set you see cast in gold is also available in platinum.

If you are more of a platinum couple, then you will want to explore that option.  Make sure that the statements your rings make are statements you can live with for awhile.  It would be terrible to spend a lot of money on an elaborate groom's ring only to find you can never wear it.  So be smart.


Your wedding is all your personality and your rings should reflect that.  But just remember that the glowing groom's ring you buy now will be the same thing wore throughout everyday life AFTER the honeymoon is over.

Congratulation and ...Cheers!
