How to Select the Right Men's Wedding Band and Women's Wedding Band

If you have surprised your fiancé with an engagement ring, now it is time to shop together for a men's wedding ring and a woman's wedding ring. The first thing you will want to do is to match up the engagement ring with the wedding band for the woman.

When looking at men's bands you will also want to think about both of the styles you as a couple like; this way both of your bands will match. Do you both prefer gold, silver, or an alternative metal such as titanium? Or perhaps you both prefer a damascus steel, carbon fiber, or stainless steel.

Make sure both of you agree as you will be wearing your symbols of love and commitment for the rest of your lives.

If the two of you cannot agree on the men's ring and the woman's ring it is not imperative that both of your rings match. You both may have different styles and that is fine. Choose a wedding ring that you each like individually. The meaning of the ring is the same whether it matches or not.

You will want to try on both the woman's ring and the men's ring. Feel the weight of them and make sure it is comfortable for each of you to wear. Many people have jobs on a computer and if your ring is too heavy it will be very uncomfortable and you may end up taking it off.

Also, if you have a job that you work roughly with your hands you will want to make sure your ring fits your day to day lifestyle. You may not want a ring with a diamond that sticks way out. Diamonds set inside of the band may work better for you and your job. If you do not want diamonds in your band, you may want to have a plain wedding band or one with etchings on the outside of it.

When selecting through men's rings and women's rings choose if you want a diamond or other stone inside of the wedding rings. You can make your wedding rings much more personal by adding your own etchings on the outside of the men's wedding band and the woman's wedding band. To make your wedding rings even more personal you and your future spouse may want to have an inscription inside of the men's wedding band and woman's wedding band.

Enjoy one of the first things you as a serious couple do together when making big decisions. Remember to have fun when choosing your wedding bands together and cherish the many years ahead you both have to look forward to together.
