Planning Milestone - Choosing wedding bands

We started looking at Boxing Day - hunting for those sales. But my FH had completed some googling in the past and found a Meteorite Ring from Jewelry by Johan. We are still waiting on the ring to be made but they have great designs for people looking for something different.

We bought our rings a few months ago- my FH is not a jewellery person.... so he settled on a black titanium
Band (he needs something durable as he is a window and door tech)....my engagement band is very simple- but it has a knife-edge cut which is really hard to match nowadays (just not the style anymore). So I actually got my band in the clearance area at Michael Hill- it wasn’t a wedding band per se, but it was a white gold band with pave diamonds all around- thick, and more square cut. It’s really gorgeous. I’m so excited to wear it ❤️❤️

A little non traditional but my fiancé is wearing his wedding band now! He’s suuuuuuper picky and he kept going back and forth on rings trying to find something he loved, eventually landing on one that cost 3x the price of my engagement ring, I sighed and said fine if it makes you happy.... flash forward to going to pick up my engagement ring (yes I knew about it 😂), he sees one at the jewellers he loves and it was under 500$ so we jumped on that and I didn’t have the heart to tell him he can’t wear it until after the wedding 😁😁 I will have to go shopping for my band soon - I’m hoping to find a thin hammered yellow gold band to match my fiancé’s ring 😊

I'm shocked to see this set because the wedding band is so similar to what I have been looking at for my ring, which is also a trilogy setting in rose gold! I've never seen a pic of the two styles together and I have to say I think it looks marvelous together. Thanks for sharing!

View quoted message The whole meaning behind this is lovely 😭Adorable!

We havent bought ours yet im now going to start looking!! but both of your rings are GORGEOUS!!

Since I proposed to my DH we got both my engagement ring and both of our wedding bands custom made

Both togetherBoth side by sideMy Husband's birthstone first (Aquamarine)My birthstone second (Peridot)

His reasoning for the birthstones is because I put him first and myself second and then on his wedding band (no pic sadly) he has my birthstone on the inside and his facing out because mine is closer to his heart.

My FH and I started looking at wedding bands on boxing day, we went to four jewelry stores in one day and both found something that we liked, but we aren't totally in love with them yet.

For him we're looking for both a wooden band and a silicone band to wear at work so he doesn't ruin his nice one.

I was thinking of doing mis-matched metals and doing a rose gold band, but after trying on some bands in multiple colours I've decided to go the matchy route with a white gold band. I'm finding that I'm very picky with my wedding band. My engagement ring is very unique and its been pretty difficult to find a band that doesn't overshadow my ring. I'm looking at one online right now that I like and I might just order it so I can see it in person

We had chosen our wedding bands to be the same and simple. White gold 6mm was the choice finalized by my husband when looking at the two chosen as i had an idea what would be the preference.

I love our bands.
My fw has a bridal set so Shopping was easy for me! For her, not so much. I wanted something a little different that would still compliment my simple three stone ring, and I gots say she did strike out of the park on this one.
Pictures not the best because the ring is so small the camera had a hard time focusing

Beautiful! That's a really cool texture in your FH's.

We ordered ours a little while ago (took advantage of a holiday sale) but both were a little big and had to be returned for smaller sizes. It'll be a long wait before we can wear them!

Love your bands!!


We haven’t gone for ours yet - maybe in May, once we buy our house. My wedding ring will match my engagement ring. Not too sure what FH wants yet.

Those are beautiful! And we are totally feeling the same excitement!


My band and engagement ring are a set as well so he did them at the same time. I just put the deposit for his on new years eve! We're so excited to wear them!

Beautiful rings, Madisyn!!


I have the one engagement/wedding band because I don't think anything would really go with it*. My husband had it custom made for me with a little collection of gems I had. I love it! *Lately I've been thinking I might try it on with a chevron ring, plain or with diamonds, just to see if it works.
I bought my husband a mini collection of rings (4 in total) all from an Etsy seller. He needed different sizes depending on what work he was most recently doing (welding makes a finger swell, apparently). Since I bought 3 the seller through an extra in for us for free! They are all titanium with a wood inner layer. This is his favourite:

I haven't gone yet to the jewelers to find a wedding band. I think we are leaning towards making our own. I'm in health care and can't wear my engagement ring as it is (afraid of skin tears on my residents) so I really have specific things I want in my wedding ring. I have a simple solitaire engagement ring so I want them to look good together but I want more sparkle to my wedding band because it is the only jewelry I can wear while at work. I'm thinking it is something we need to do in the next month maybe two since I'm not sure how long it takes to have something designed. I'll talk to the person at the wedding show again on Saturday to find when the best time to come in would be.

I was so excited to shop for future hubby's ring. He's not a jewelry guy so I figured I'd keep it simple and spend my energy on figuring out an engraving.


He stole a little of my thunder when he decided he wanted a silicone ring. He has a great reason, he works with machines and doesn't want to risk losing a finger or a hand. I've come around to the silicone ring, I just wish I could have gotten the inside engraved!
