Groom's wedding band

Have you chosen your groom's wedding band yet? I've been looking but haven't chosen it yet. He's a laid-back kinda guy who does't want anything fancy. All he wants is a gold band, no diamonds, so designs, just a plain band of good quality. What have you chosen? I do plan to get it engraved though,...

Have you chosen your groom's wedding band yet? I've been looking but haven't chosen it yet. He's a laid-back kinda guy who does't want anything fancy. All he wants is a gold band, no diamonds, so designs, just a plain band of good quality. What have you chosen? I do plan to get it engraved though, just deciding what I want to have on there. i'm thinking "1985" that's the year we met and we first dated. I wish he wanted something with a design, but it's his ring and he deserves to have want he wants.

    The one we got was vintage, because my rings are vintage. But yeah, you need to know width, karat and if he has a preference for style of band. The one we got is comfort fit, which I personally prefer. But you can get a half dome or flat band, too. I wanted FH to have interest in a more detailed band, but he's happy with what we got, and that's what matters most.

    FH wanted something that would match my set, so I found (top right) along with a few others and that’s the one he picked out of them, and he’s secretly as obsessed as I am with my engagement ring lol. He occasionally just mentions how he’s excited to have it on our wedding day

    My FH is a big hunter so I got him an antler ring! I gave him the idea about antler when I saw it online, and he picked out which one he wanted. It’s black hammered tungsten with white antler inlay. We got it from antlerrings.com, and they also give you a free stainless steel activity ring to go with it!

    My fiance picked his out, he wanted something simple. Plus it's made in the USA.

    Yes. We went to our Jeweler together. I picked out a plain, white gold band to go with my engagement ring and he likes to match me, so he picked out one too. He's so cute like that!

    My engagement ring is a white gold setting with diamonds down the sides with a center diamond that belonged to his maternal grandmother. It does come with a matching wedding band, however as we are Jewish, we can't use wedding bands with adornments or engravings on them. We can add them after the wedding, if we want to. My cousin-in-law law is a Rabbi and our officiant. He said that ours will be an egalitarian ceremony, so he requires us to buy each other's rings.

    So don't think it's strange if he wants a plain band. This is actually a thing and some of us don't have a choice in how it looks except for the choice in gold or silver. Lol!

    He is helping. He wants a plain gold band. If that's what he wants, that's what he wants. My FH wants a plain 5mm white gold band with a milgrain design on the outer edges, so that's what he's getting.

    My FH said he just wants a tungsten band. He apparently bought himself one on a Black Friday deal before he proposed last year, but returned it because it was wider than he wanted. I never saw it, but knowing him it was just a plain band. I’ve shown him a few things, but we still have plenty of time so I’ll just wait until he’s ready.

    He's really not. He hasn't said what carrot of gold he wants, does he want it to be a wide or thicker band etc...he just shrugs. He'll be wearing this for the rest of his life so I just want him to be happy

    My guy is a laid back, “I want a matte plain or Koa wood ring.”
    He has a koa wood and titanium band that was less than 20 on Amazon- he’s been wearing that to travel for work for ages now. I plan to get a cheap matching one to wear when we’re working outside etc. I figured his “real” band would be similar but better quality.

    We went to look for rings for him and he absolutely fell in love with this band. It’s very obvious, shiny, heavy and has a freakin diamond! 😂 It compliments mine so well and we love it.

    This is one that my FH really seems to like. Every time I look and this one pops up he says oh yeah that one! So I have a feeling he will do this one but I also know him better than he knows himself and just like yours he will probably want a super simple gold band. Maybe he’ll get two 🤷🏼‍♀️😂one for now and one for the wedding 💍 it’s only fair haha

    No my in white gold. I don’t know why but I have never thought gold looked good on me so I think he knew to get me silver or white gold. Our rings definitely won’t match but thats totally okay with us! I want his to be personalized with something but haven’t figured out what yet. I like the idea of a date or I have seen a finger print on some.

    I'm going to let him pick it out. I prefer tungsten or even one I found with the Millineum Falcon on it.
    So far he doesnt seem to care. Probably going to wait til November to hit up pre holiday sales.

    Mine wants a tungsten band with a suglite inlay from Staghead Designs, I'll be getting an opal and antler one.
    My fiance wants a simple one but wanted a little bit of flare. Realistically with his job being very hands on he'll probably need a different daily band.
    If your fiance wants a plain gold one just get him a plain gold one, a lot of men don't even wear their wedding band 🙄
    Also if he doesn't like it you can always use it as an excuse to upgrade both of your rings later 😉
