The Ultimate Guide to Finding Your Perfect Wedding Band
When it comes to selecting the perfect wedding band to complement your engagement ring, there are several factors to consider. From metal choices to design styles and deciding between a plain or diamond band, the options can seem overwhelming. However, with a little guidance, you can find the ideal match for your beloved ring.
What design style should you choose for your wedding band?
When it comes to design styles, you can opt for a classic plain band, a sparkling diamond band, a more unique design. You could even custom design your dream wedding ring if you have something specific in mind. Consider the style of your engagement ring and your personal preferences to help choose a wedding band that complements your ring beautifully.
One classic option is to go for a band that matches your engagement ring exactly, wether that is a diamond-set band or a plain metal band usually of the same width. You could however, choose to go for something a bit different or unique to wear alongside the ring you were proposed to with.

What metal should you choose for your wedding band?
When choosing between platinum, yellow gold, and rose gold, you will usually consider the metal used for your engagement ring. While matching the metal of your wedding band to your engagement ring is a traditional choice, mixing metals has also become increasingly popular.
Mixing metals can add a unique and personalised touch to your ring stack, creating a stylish and eye-catching look. If your engagement ring has platinum claws but a different colour metal band, you may also consider having a platinum wedding band to match the setting rather than matching the band's metal.
Platinum is a naturally white metal known to be very durable, yellow gold provides a classic and timeless appeal with its gorgeous gold colour, while rose gold adds a romantic and modern touch.
What should you do if a regular wedding band won't sit flush against your ring?
Our range of engagement rings are wed fit, meaning they are designed to sit snug next to our range of wedding rings. However, if your engagement ring has a unique shape or setting then a contoured wedding band or a spacer ring may be the perfect choice. A contoured band is designed to fit around the curves of your engagement ring, creating a seamless and elegant look when worn together. A "spacer" ring is usually a simple classic band that sits between your engagement ring and your wedding ring, allowing you to still wear a larger, more unique, or diamond set, wedding ring. This extra ring also gives a more stacked style to your wedding set. Wether you need one to allow your rings to sit perfectly together or you just love the look of multiple bands beside each other, a beautiful stack is created.
