How to Pick the Perfect Wedding Band
Picking out your wedding bands is one of the most exciting parts of the wedding planning process! You get to spend the day together, try on as many rings as you want to, enjoy a glass of wine or beer, and daydream about your future together.
The process of choosing your wedding bands should be enjoyable but it can sometimes be overwhelming. How do you choose a ring that you’re going to wear for the rest of your life? And how do you choose the perfect band for you out of the hundreds and hundreds of choices?
Fortunately, we’re here to help! Here are some tips to help you find the perfect wedding bands.
Consider Your Style
One of the first things you should consider when starting your wedding band search is your personal style. Do you like classic, timeless jewelry or are you more modern and trendy? Do you have a preference between white gold, yellow gold, or rose gold? A favorite diamond shape?
Think about your personal style and share it with your personal jewelry. They can then help you find bands to start trying on. If you are planning to wear your wedding band with your engagement ring (as most women do), you will want to try on both at the same time so you will know what they look like together.
Consider Your Lifestyle
You should also consider your lifestyles when shopping for wedding bands. If you are extremely active and concerned about damaging your bands, you may want to consider a stronger metal like platinum. Platinum is a great option for many people because it’s durable (like many of the alternative metals) but it can still be sized and maintained (unlike most alternative metals such as titanium and tungsten).
Shop For Your Bands Early
Once you’re engaged, it’s never too early to shop for your wedding bands. You know you’ll need them, so you might as well get this checked off your list right away. Plus, some wedding bands need to be special ordered or custom made, so it’s best not to wait until the last minute for this particular task!
Also, prices don’t go down, so there’s no downside to purchasing your wedding bands in advance – even if you aren’t sure when you’re tying the knot. In fact, you’ll probably save yourself some money by buying them earlier rather than waiting until closer to your wedding date.
Shop As a Couple
This one might go without saying, but we highly recommend shopping for your wedding bands together! This is one of those planning activities you can both participate in and remember for years to come. You can also help each other find the perfect rings by providing feedback and making suggestions.
