When thinking of your wedding band, you picture one, singular piece of jewelry that you will wear for the rest of your life. But, have you considered the ongoing traditions and practicality of putting a huge chunk of money into one irreplaceable piece of jewelry? Today, it is increasingly more common for men to opt for several wedding bands, even before the big day! Multiple wedding bands allows longevity of your marital band, the opportunity for new looks, and offers you and your partner a new tradition of gift giving. Your marital wedding band can be defined as the ring your partner puts on your finger during the ceremony. This ring is likely something unique or incredibly special to you. Perhaps the ring was a family heirloom or you chose to invest in a higher-priced, luxury ring such as 18k gold with diamonds. Although this ring holds special meaning, you may not want to wear it every day. Instead, while shopping for a ring, leave room in your budget for a second
ring meant for everyday wear. A 14k gold ring or a Tungsten piece would be a great option for the natural wear of your everyday life, ensuring your marital band stays safe for special occasions. Additionally, multiple bands are exceptional opportunities to define your look day-to-day. Men’s bands are more than just white or yellow metal. With an artful array of textures, patterns, and even designs meant to stack, your wedding band will be the singular part of your daily uniform that you wear without hesitation. Black, bronze, and even pavéd with diamonds, your band should be an exciting expression of your style. The option of having multiple bands also opens the door for holiday gifts, anniversary celebrations, and more. Create meaningful moments out of your jewelry by tying new looks to your relationship’s milestones. New bands are gifts that keep on giving, for both you and your partner.
Your wedding band is something special that is meant to be reflective of your personality and relationship with your partner. Just like your love, your personality and style is ever-growing, why shouldn’t your band collection grow with it?
