BETTER TOGETHER

Y PERFECT PAIRINGS You found the love of your life, and they proposed with the ring of your dreams, but you need one more thing before you can start your happily ever: the perfect wedding band to slip onto your finger when you say, “I do.” The most straightforward approach to finding the right wedding band is to choose a simple band made of the same metal as your engagement ring. It’s a classic, low-key look that’s always appropriate, and you can always add sparkling diamond or gemstone bands to your wedding stack later if you want more drama. FINDING THE WEDDING BAND THAT’S RIGHT FOR YOUR ENGAGEMENT RING
THE MOST STRAIGHTFORWARD APPROACH IS A SIMPLE BAND MADE OF THE SAME METAL AS YOUR ENGAGEMENT RING The best thing that you can do when trying to find the perfect wedding band for your engagement ring is to come in and try on different options with one of our experts. Pay attention to how each band fits with your engagement ring: it’s okay if there is space between the two rings, as long as they still feel like a cohesive whole. Finding a ring you’ll be excited to wear every single day can be overwhelming but remember this: you already found the one person out of everyone on earth to spend your life with. You can absolutely find the right wedding band for your engagement ring.
If you’re sure you want diamonds right from the start, consider an eternity or half- eternity wedding band. An eternity band has gems that go all the way around, while a half-eternity band gives the same look with a smooth, unadorned surface below. Both styles are glamorous and give great sparkle, but some people find a half-eternity band more comfortable for everyday wear. If you’re a diva for details, you might want a wedding band with engraved motifs or decorative metalwork. For a cohesive look, choose a design that complements the lines and aesthetic of your engagement ring. For example, an Art Deco engagement ring might look best with a wedding band that has a crisp, geometric design, while a romantic floral engagement ring might look best with a wedding band that has a more organic design.
