HOW TO PAIR AN ENGAGEMENT RING AND WEDDING BAND

Your engagement ring is the center of attraction that leads to your big day, but for wedding jewelry, it's just as important to know how to tie your engagement ring to the wedding band. After all, a wedding band marks your transition from engagement to marriage and, like your engagement ring, is something you will wear all your life. You have the dream engagement ring - now is the time to find the perfect ladies wedding band! 

Types Of Engagement Ring Settings

The first step in choosing a wedding band is to know the different types of engagement ring settings. The shape, size, and whether the ring has a halo or not will affect all types of men's wedding bands that look good with your engagement ring. 

You also need to ask yourself if you want a wedding band next to the engagement ring on a flat surface without a gap or little space between the two. Again, part of this depends on the setting. For example, engagement rings with high-end settings, such as the cathedral and Tiffany, often have room for the wedding band to "sit" under the diamond wedding bands, leaving a gap. But, again, your wedding jeweler can suggest the best styles based on your engagement ring and personal preferences.

Choose An Appropriate Setting

A collection of cougar-shaped flaming blue sapphires can be fun, but be sure to choose a wedding ring that is trendy but has been for many years. Your engagement rings and wedding rings should be both sporty settings that will be memorable - jewelry that you can proudly wear at any age.

Choose A Matching Metal

A metal collision can feel obscene, even if worn with different hands. Keep it with suitable metals. If you have a two-tone engagement ring then go with men's gold wedding bands, you have several options that can work great.

One is a wedding band of one and a half with the same mixture of metals to maintain a similar look. Another is to add an eye-catching wedding ring with one or the other metal to add eye-catching contrast.

Opt For A Coordinating Shape

If you are going to wear rings with one hand, the shape is a huge factor to consider. You want a wedding ring that sits comfortably next to your engagement ring, sitting snugly but not looking fused. A straight engagement ring does not cause mating problems, although engagement rings with large branch settings, curves, or flanges may require a little extra effort to find a nicely nesting wedding band.

The shape of the engagement ring stone is another aspect to keep in mind when choosing the general shape of the wedding ring gems. For example, engagement ring stones cut into ovals, pillows and other rounded shapes go well with round stones in men's wedding bands. Similarly, square shapes, such as princess cuts and radians, tend to mate well with square stones on a ribbon.

Go For Well-suited Gemstones

Matching the type and setting of gemstones will help you find an attractive match. For example, a classic solitaire engagement ring may look like a simple wedding bands. But if your idea of ​​perfection means a wedding band with stones, you have several choices that can work well together.

Conclusion

In general, the same type of settings tends to match on both engagement and wedding bands, such as a channel set engagement ring that matches the channel set wedding band. Going with the option of diamond wedding bands is also a good idea.

However, keep in mind that tendencies and rules are two different things. So feel free to choose which pairing will captivate your mood if it makes you happy - now and for years to come.
