MATCING WEDDING RING
PERFECT MATCH FOR PERFECT COUPLE
Classic Matching Wedding Rings
Many couples love the classic elegance of matching wedding bands in plain precious
metal, whether platinum, 18K gold -- in yellow, white, or pink. Even if you want simple
bands, there are still details to agree upon—whether you like a ring that has rounded
edges or if you prefer a more contemporary band with straight edges, and if you like
the shine of a high-polish finish or prefer a smooth and matte finish.
When you pick matching precious metal bands, the groom’s ring will generally be a bit
wider than the bride’s ring to accommodate the difference in hand size.

Detailed Macthing Wedding Rings
Just because you want your rings to match does not mean you need to skimp
on detailing and style! The details in your matching wedding rings can be as minimal
or as elaborate as you want.
Examples of simple details include a milgrain border or an inlay, a subtle ridge in
the precious metal band. A hammered finish can also add texture for a more
interesting and unique look.
More elaborate details might be an antique scroll design, a braid, or Celtic knots.
To really add some brilliance to your matched wedding rings, consider adding diamonds
or other gemstones. A very thin vertical row of diamonds or sapphires is a popular option
for men who want a band with gemstones.

Coordinating Your Wedding Rings
If you like the idea of having a wedding band that is similar to your fiancé’s, but don’t
necessarily want them to completely match, there are many ways to coordinate your
wedding bands without matching. You and your fiancé can select one or two design
elements to match, such as precious metal choice and finish, but choose some
elements that differ to illustrate your individual styles and identities.
Here are some unique ways to create coordinating his and hers rings
• If you love the look of milgrain, his ring could have a subtle milgrain border, while
hers features milgrain and exquisite diamond accents.
• If you love diamonds or sapphires, his ring might feature a single gemstone or a small
vertical row of diamonds, while hers features diamonds all across the band.
• You could choose the same metal in different textures (say, hammered white gold
for him, smooth white gold for her) or different metals with the same texture (matte
platinum for him, matte rose gold for her).
• Another sweet option is to choose a favorite romantic phrase or saying and have
the first half of it engraved on one ring, and the second half engraved on the other.
For example, the groom’sring could read “I will love you . . .” while the bride’s reads “
. . for a thousand years.”

The Most Romantic Matching Wedding Rings
For wedding bands that match in the most personal way, consider engraving either
the outside or the inside of the bands with the wedding date, a song lyric, your
monogram, or other words of significance to you as a couple. You can have the rings
engraved on the inside, to be your little secret, or on the outside for all of the world
to see. Another matching element that many couples love is having their fingerprints
imprinted on the inside of one another’s bands as a special way to personalize their rings.
