As more and more men are wearing wedding bands, so there are more and more different styles available.
The men's wedding band shot up in popularity during the second world war when couples were apart for long periods of time, and often very soon after their wedding. The wedding ring worn then was usually a simple plain band.
Over the decades men's gold wedding bands have changed with the demands of society, and the choice now is vast.
Many men will have never worn a ring before their wedding ring, so it can be a difficult choice to make.
Below are the three most popular choices of men's gold wedding bands available today.
1. The plain flat band. This is the original style of men's gold wedding rings and is still very popular today. It is unobtrusive and will never go out of fashion.
2. The comfort band. This is a reliably new style, probably created with the man who has never previously worn a ring before in mind. This ring is has rounded edges and is easy to slid on and off. If you need to take off the ring for sport or work then this may be the best choice for you.
3. The celtic wedding bands. These are the most intricate of the three top choices. The celtic men's gold wedding bands can have almost any symbols on them, however, the most popular are the warrior (a symbol of strength and endurance), the weave (a sign of togheerness) or the Claddagh (friendship, love and loyalty) .
Obviously any of these rings can be personalized with messages on the inside, for example the date of your wedding is often chosen, otherwise 'love always' and you partners name.
Apart from the style of the ring there are two other important factors to consider. Firstly the choice of metal, although yellow gold is the original metals for wedding rings white gold is now very fashionable. The second decision to make is the width of the ring. The best way to choose the width of a ring is probably to go and try a few on. Usually if you have broad hands a wider ring will look better and if you have narrow hands the narrow band will work better.
Some couples will want to have matching wedding rings, but at the end of the day it is important to have a ring which you are comfortable wearing and which is practical for your lifestyle.
