Dumb Question re: Wedding Bands

Does FH's and my wedding bands have to match?? Can we have different ones? What is normally done? Does it matter? What is everyone doing?

You can do whatever you want. I know it's really important to some people to have their bands match. FH thought we 'had' to... but I set him straight since I wanted DIAMONDS

He's getting a fairly plain white gold band (brushed gold with polished gold ridges) and I'm getting a platinum eternity band.

No, the rings don't have to be the same. We are having the same rings, but that was a personal choice.

we are not i have a very antique enggement ring so my band is antique looking -he wants a more modern band - i think it is best to pick what you both like because then you will wear it more

Thanks. Once again you were all very helpful. I have a feeling we will be getting different bands.

I have a diamond one, which was my mom's, but I got a plain one that matches DH. I agree, it is a personal choice. One of my friends couldn't imagine not having matching bands, but her wedding and E-ring are the only jewelry she wears and she didn't want diamonds in her band. I think most people I know got the same color - so both B&G got white gold or platinum or both got yellow gold.

Our's don't match either. It really is a matter of personal preference.

Nope, don't have to match. I want one that has a row of diamonds and FH wants one that is brushed. He's tried on more rings then I have, but he wants to be sure he will be comfy wearing it - which is very important to both of us.
