Mens wedding rings are just as important!

Don't fall into the trap of assuming the mens wedding rings will be cheaper.

Traditionally the groom’s ring will be wider than the bride’s and that means more metal (gold, platinum, titanium, palladium etc.) which means more cost.

A lot of men will also worry that the ring will not be comfortable (especially if they have not worn a ring before).

As with choosing your ring, when choosing mens wedding rings it is important to:

1. Pick one that suits your lifestyle. If you other half has a manual job you may wish to choose a titanium or platinum ring as these are harder than gold and less likely to scratch.
2. Pick a ring that is comfortable. You should consider the size of the groom’s hands and length of his fingers. Men with large hands often choose a width of 5-7mm and men with smaller hands usually choose 5mm or narrower.

   But there are no hard and fast rules, the best thing is to try on lots of different sizes and pick the width that feels and looks the best (again, bear in mind the wider the ring the more expensive). Profile should also be considered; soft rounded edges will be more comfortable than square edges and choose a rounded internal profile as this will also make the ring more comfortable.

3. Pick a ring within your budget. This goes without saying but the same rules apply when buying anything for the wedding. Get three quotes and always compare like with like.

4. Choose the metal carefully. This is entirely down to personal choice, however the type of metal will affect the price.

Another option to save money is to buy a wedding ring set, however always be careful to investigate the quality of the rings as wedding ring sets can often contain lower quality rings as they rely on the convenience factor to sell the product for them.

Finally, it is not essential that your groom gets a ring to match yours. You may want diamonds or other gem stones to match your engagement ring and your other half may prefer not to have a diamond wedding ring.

Don't get too hung up on what other people think, it's your day and you are the people who have to wear the rings. So when it comes to wedding rings, go with your own choices.
