Your wedding ring is a piece you'll wear every day for the rest of your life, so it's worth taking the time to get it right. Here's what to consider.
Matching Your Engagement Ring
The most important consideration is how your wedding band sits alongside your engagement ring. Some settings (like solitaires) pair with almost any band, while others (like halos or clusters) may need a contoured or curved band to sit flush.
We recommend bringing your engagement ring to your consultation so we can ensure a perfect fit. If your ring has a unique profile, a custom curved band is often the best solution.
Choosing Your Metal
Most couples match the metal of their wedding band to their engagement ring, but mixing metals is increasingly popular. The main options are platinum, yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold. Each has different properties in terms of durability, colour, and maintenance.
Width and Profile
Wedding bands come in various widths, typically ranging from 1.5mm to 6mm. Narrower bands (1.5-2mm) create a delicate look and pair well with most engagement rings. Wider bands (3mm+) make more of a statement and are popular for men's wedding rings.
Band Styles
Options include plain polished bands, pavé (small diamonds set into the band), channel-set, and textured finishes like hammered or brushed. Your choice should complement both your engagement ring and your personal style.
