What Are Wedding Bands?

Wedding bands are rings that pair with your engagement ring, given during your wedding ceremony. It is worn above your engagement ring, or “closest to your heart.” Your wedding band symbolizes your union, your commitment, and your enduring affection for each other.

Wedding bands can be simple, like a plain gold or platinum band. However, most wedding bands are more elaborate, and are made to match a woman’s engagement ring. Typically they have diamonds, designs, engraving, or other details.

"I have made several stops into Fox Fine to browse, purchase my wedding band and have my engagement ring appraised, resized and cleaned. Each time was an incredible experience, and regardless of who was helping me they were always friendly and knowledgeable and never made me feel rushed or pushed into making a sale. Incredible selection and great customer service!"

Should I Get a Straight or a Curved Wedding Band?

The decision to get a straight wedding band or a curved one depends upon taste, functionality, and especially your engagement ring design.

Does a wedding band fit snugly or “rock” when paired with your engagement ring?

A wedding band should fit snugly against your engagement ring. If your wedding band “rocks” from side to side when up against your engagement ring, that means there’s a point where the two rings are hitting each other. They will wear each other out in this area, and it can happen pretty quickly! If this occurs with your ring, you may want to consider a different style of wedding band.

Does a straight wedding band sit flush with your engagement ring?

If you pair a wedding band, like a straight wedding band, with your engagement ring and it sits flush, your options are wide open! You can pair your engagement ring with a straight, curved, or chevron style wedding band. Some styles will create gaps between the two rings, which some people prefer; others don’t. So try on a variety of styles before you finalize your choice!

Wedding Band FAQs

Wedding band prices vary depending upon the metal type, the weight of the ring, and the type and number of diamonds or gemstones. Although some wedding bands are less, most wedding bands begin at $999 and go up from there.

You may find a ready made wedding band that is perfect. But many times ready made wedding bands do not match your unique engagement ring. Instead, your set will look best if your wedding band is custom made to be a perfect match. Custom wedding bands are a Fox Fine Jewelry speciality.

Absolutely! Most often Fox Fine Jewelry will custom make your wedding band with colored gemstones or colored diamonds. See examples we've made here.

For durability, we recommend gold - whether white, yellow, or rose gold - or platinum. Sterling silver costs less, but is a softer metal and not the best option for everyday wear. Your choice of either white, yellow, or rose gold is a matter of personal taste, or you may want to match the metal of your partner’s.

Apart from being a personal preference, yellow gold looks better on olive or darker skin while rose gold looks better on skin with rosy undertones and lighter skin.

Many women want the option to wear their wedding band without their engagement ring, and this can affect their choice of wedding bands. But in practice we rarely see this happen. When would you wear your wedding band alone? On a vacation to a remote location? If you have any concern about security, we recommend an inexpensive travel ring instead of your wedding band.

An important exception is if you are in the medical field with frequent gloving and degloving. In those instances, select a low profile wedding band that is not very wide.

Two wedding bands “frame” your engagement ring and look great, especially when the wedding bands are thinner and less dramatic than your engagement ring. Some people get married with one wedding band, and get a second one on their anniversary. It’s a great gift idea!

All of our wedding bands come with a free sizing. We work closely with you to help you determine your perfect fit. Here’s how to determine your best ring size.

Fox Fine Jewelry believes that your investment and treasured ring should come with the assurance of protection, so we offer a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty. This doesn’t include theft, loss, or damage, including normal wear and tear. For this we recommend insurance.

While sterling silver wedding bands are available, we don’t recommend it. Even though it is less expensive, the metal is softer and not as durable.
