Guide to men's wedding bands

All the glory goes to a diamond cut engagement ring for the wife-to-be, but purchasing a man's wedding band is a momentous occasion that shouldn't be taken lightly. Like an engagement ring and woman's wedding band, the husband's wedding band is an investment that will last forever. Follow these tips to purchase the best band:

Lifestyle

The groom should pick a ring that will suit his lifestyle and be protected against erosion and damage. Men who work with their hands should consider a durable band, like platinum, titanium, palladium, tungsten or ceramic. If you are choosing a gold band, keep in mind that lower-karat gold is more durable than higher-karat gold. Silver is not a very durable option and tends to need to be replaced after a few years. The Men's Flat Brushed Band in platinum is a simple, stylish and durable option.

Will bands match?

Some couples choose to have matching bands, while others are OK with non-matching sets. If you both are opting for the latter, be mindful to choose bands that have a similar style. Color, finish and stone selection are all options for you to have a theme going between both wedding bands. For example, you can get the Connect the Dots Men's Band and Princess Z Matching Band.

A man's personality

While the bride-to-be may want a lavish and stunning diamond engagement ring, the groom-to-be may prefer a simple band without a lot of flash. In this case, a flat wedding band, satin-edged band or half-round band are good options. These styles have simple designs that won't make a man's man feel uncomfortable, but they will still have a bit of character and can match a variety of styles of engagement and wedding bands.
