Made For Each Other: His and Hers Wedding Bands
As a general rule, I don’t like things to be too matchy-matchy. I don’t like my earrings to match my necklace. I’d rather mix my patterns and textures. I even mix polka dots and stripes; what can I say? I’m a rebel. But there is one place I’ll make an exception: wedding rings. While my husband’s and my wedding bands are not a matched set, they speak to each other. We both have milgrained white gold rings. And although mine has a whole lot more diamonds, they sure do look pretty next to each other
We’ve talked before about how a wedding ring, whether for a man or a woman, is an avenue of personal expression. But I feel compelled to tell you that sometimes, a little matching can go a long way. After all, you two are perfectly matched; why shouldn’t your bling be the same way? If you’re into the idea of coordinating rings, remember that you have a whole spectrum of possibilities. You can take the matching idea really literally and buy the same ring for both partners or you can take some liberties with the idea of matching (same metal color, stones, style, etc). It’s up to you two as a couple. There is no right or wrong way to approach creating a his-and-hers wedding band set.
For the couple who likes the incredibly popular industrial look, the Double Beam and Triple Beam Wedding Rings are an impeccable choice. The rings both feature squared shanks and small bars running through the corners of the rings, keeping either two or three thin bands spaced and correctly lined up. These contemporary treasures can be ordered in several gold tones. You can choose all one color gold, or have a combination of yellow, white, or rose golds. These rings too are exceedingly versatile. While both rings can be worn by men or women, a woman’s more delicate hands are perhaps more suited to the Double Beam, while a man’s strong hand is better equipped to support the scale of the Triple Beam.
For the religious couple, Timeless Wedding Bands also offers a robust selection of wedding rings with religious motifs. For the couple whose faith is central to their marriage, the Contemporary Ichthys and Cross wedding ring pairs beautifully with the Francis Wedding Band. The Ichthys and Cross ring features the recognizable fish and cross symbols associated with the Christian faith, while the Francis showcases a cross pattern. Both of these rings are available in 7mm and 8mm widths, making them an ideal option for the couple who wants to show their faith on their finger.
Diamonds are said to be a girl’s best friend, but they can also be a mighty fine pal to men. The Slate Diamond Wedding Band holds princess (square) cut diamonds in an engraved cube setting. A beautiful ladies’ pairing would be the Princess Wedding Ring, which, not surprisingly, hold princess cut diamonds. Although the Princess ring doesn’t have a cube pattern, it has vertical bars between each of the diamonds. The striking geometric designs complement each other perfectly. The diamonds, being the same shape, give further credence to the union of the couple who wears these rings.
If you two can’t find a pair of rings that rings true to your individual personalities and the identity of your relationship, a great option is the plain gold wedding ring. Our rings are available in a variety of metals and widths. Every band Timeless Wedding Bands sells is comfort fit for the most comfortable wear possible (for more on comfort fit, check out this blog and this one, too). Sometimes the most powerful statement about your marriage is in the beautiful simplicity of a classic ring design.
There are so many ways you can approach the selection of a his-and-hers wedding ring set. Whether you’re coordinating the style, the diamonds/gold colors, or going for exactly matching rings, Timeless Wedding Bands has the perfect match for you and your perfect match.
