How to match your wedding ring and engagement ring
The engagement ring and wedding ring are usually worn together, every day. That makes it worth thinking about how they look and feel side by side. Here is what we usually advise.
Choose the same gold colour
The simplest way to make the rings belong together is to choose the same gold colour: yellow, white or rose gold. For a more personal look you can also mix them, such as a yellow gold wedding ring with a white gold engagement ring. What matters is that it feels intentional.
Think about width
Rings with roughly the same band width look calm together. Many choose a wedding ring that is as slim as or slightly slimmer than the engagement ring, so the stone in the engagement ring stays in focus.
How the rings sit together
If the engagement ring has side stones or a low set stone, a straight wedding band may leave a small gap. Try the rings on together or ask us which designs sit close to each other. A delicate pavé eternity ring, for example, looks lovely next to a solitaire.
Full or half eternity
An eternity ring with diamonds all the way around is called a full eternity ring, and one with diamonds across the top is called a half eternity ring. A full eternity ring sparkles from every angle but is harder to resize later, so the size needs to be right from the start. A half eternity ring is easier to adjust and often more comfortable for everyday wear.
Rings for both of you
Your wedding rings do not need to look the same. A plain gold band for him can match the engagement ring through the gold colour and carry a personal engraving inside. Engraving is included with several of our wedding rings.
