We took a little poll on how people chose or are choosing their wedding bands via Facebook and at our brides' fittings. For some, there is more than choosing just because you like the way the band looks with your engagement ring. We love all the answers we have gotten from our brides. For some brides it is solely a financial decision—the bride and groom chose what they can afford. Many brides chose a wedding band that compliments their engagement ring. We are finding that most brides are choosing a band with some sparkle.
Our bride Carrie (who is now a married lady) said,"Mine matches the band of my engagement ring...who knew I was such a sparkle hawk?? ;)"
Melissa, another one of our brides said,"I'm with Carrie... We picked my band based on matching my engagement ring and his based and what we could afford after!!! LOL."
We have another bride who told us she and her future husband paid respects to their parents by picking bands similar to theirs. Kelsey said,"We picked ours based on similar shapes that our parents had. Then inside we engraved a special phrase that means a lot to us and makes no sense to anyone else."
Regardless of whether your engagement ring is a vintage family heirloom or a brand new modern setting, picking a wedding band that you love is very important. After all it is the band that symbolizes your commitment for life.
Thanks to Casey Templeton for providing these photos. A couple of the photos are actually our brides' rings!
