Two Tone Or Carved Wedding Rings? Which Type Of Wedding Ring Is Best For You?

Planning and organising your wedding can be a stressful time for everyone involved. From getting a venue booked to sorting out food and drink, as well as inviting guests, there’s one thing that confirms that you are officially married and that is a pair of wedding rings.

Choosing between a pair of wedding rings can be a difficult, but exciting process for a couple. However, you should not rush the ring buying process as you want to make sure the rings individually fit on both the bride’s and groom’s respective fingers.

If you are struggling between choosing a two tone or carved wedding ring, we’ve put together this guide to help you decide on a pair of wedding bands for you and your partner.

What is a Two Tone Wedding Ring? 

A two-tone wedding ring is a ring that combines two different precious metals, such as white gold and yellow gold to create an eye-catching band. The contrasting colours create a stunning visual effect, adding depth and dimension to the ring. 

Two-tone wedding rings are also very versatile pieces of jewellery to wear, as they compliment any outfit the bride or groom wears. Utilising different metals can enhance the ring’s durability as certain metals may be more resistant to scratches or wear. Combining these metals ensures that you get the best of both worlds - durability and aesthetic appeal.

What is a Carved Wedding Ring?

A carved-style wedding ring features a design with a handmade carving on them, which gives the band its old antique look.

Carved-style wedding bands are crafted with exceptional attention to detail, featuring ornate patterns, designs or motifs that are delicately engraved onto the surface of the band. Why not show your love and appreciation for your partner by adding some personalised engravings on the band, thus adding another layer of sentimental value to your piece of jewellery.

Things to Consider When Choosing a Wedding Ring 

Before you choose a wedding ring, there are some things you need to consider. After all, you and your partner will be wearing your respective rings for the rest of your lives. 

Considering both your personal styles is a crucial part of the wedding ring buying process. Do you prefer more traditional styles or more modern designs? Do you want a yellow gold or rose gold wedding ring? Taking these things into account will help ensure that you have the perfect pair of wedding rings ahead of your special day.

Setting a budget is another important thing to consider when buying your wedding rings. You should have the initial conversation with your partner first so that you don’t end up purchasing a pair of bands that cost more than what you can afford.

It's a good idea to also consider your lifestyles as a couple as you want to make sure your pieces of jewellery are not only comfortable, but durable. By taking these things into consideration, you and your partner can easily find a pair of wedding rings that complement each other.

Two Tone or Carved Wedding Rings? Which Wedding Ring Should You Buy for the Bride and Groom?

Ultimately, this comes down to personal preference and what you want as a couple for your pair of wedding rings. 

If you and your partner want a simple, but durable wedding ring that shows your love for another, then consider getting a pair of two-tone wedding bands. The design brings together two precious metals together into one beautiful ring, which symbolises two people in love with one another.

Carved-style wedding rings on the other hand are an excellent choice for the groom, particularly if they want a unique and distinctive band. Not only do carved rings feature various designs, which range from simple and elegant to bold and intricate, they can also be made in a variety of different metals, such as platinum and gold.
