Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

No it doesn't matter to me if it matches or not. They won't be matching since I will be matching my e-ring. I don't expect him to wear diamonds and bagquets

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

OUr wedding bands do not match, mine matches my setting to my e-ring.....the only thing is that both our rings have diamonds.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

They don't have to match... I want something to match my engagement ring with diamonds and he is very simple. So they will definitely be different.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

It doesn't matter to me. FH also wants a titanium band and I'm getting a band that matches my e-ring with pretty diamonds and antique detail.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

It really is all a matter of preference. One word of advice though - be careful with the titanium bands. If you are ever in an accident, your hands can swell and they have an extremely hard time cutting that band which if they dont can cut the circulation off to your finger. I don't mean to sound harsh or anything...just letting you know what I have heard (from a fireman)

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

Me and Fh are going back and forth abt this one. He wants matching bands - and doesnt believe in non-matching bands. I want an all-diamond band that matches my e-ring.

He wants a band with diamonds on it - but very small and little ... and I LOVE the ring he picked out - but I designed my wedding band - and I dont think ours should match. Soo ... i dont know what to do.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

We're not doing matching bands. Darren is not into the diamond thing, as my band is an all diamond eternity band. He just wants a platinum 6mm band. Easy enough, so long as he has it on!

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

It doesn't matter to me I want him to have something he is comfortable and he is not comfortable with diamonds in his ring, and that's what I want. So our bands won't match.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

Nope it doesn't matter if they match...as long as each person likes their own

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

Doesn't have to, but I loved the matching bands that we saw when we went to get my e-ring sized. So ours will be matching.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

It doesn't matter to me. Ours will be different. I want white gold with diamonds in it. FH's will be a simple yellow gold band. He tried on white gold and it just doesnt look right with his skin tone. Yellow gold looks soo much better on him.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

at first it was . i always saw my mom and dad wearing their bands (and hardly EVER take them off) but then when we started looking he had a completely different taste than me. I fell in love with one wedding band and he wanted a two toned platinum ring so we ended up getting two different ones. We decided though we would buy two plain white gold bands to wear on vacation though

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

Ours will not match. He wants something plain, I don't. We both have to wear our own rings, so we should like them

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

Fh's band will not match mine. He said he wanted them (matching bands) before but I'm getting an eternity band that matches my e-ring and it will not look right on his finger so he will get a band with diamonds but not matching mine.

Re: Matching Wedding Bands?

I think it would be nice, but I'm not really stuck on the idea.

However, I found some VERY cool bands online that he loves too, so we might end up getting similar ones anyway. (they can't match completely anyway because mine needs to be bent to fit around my e-ring)
