You should have something that makes you both happy. But, I’ve never
heard of the idea that your wedding bands must match. Men’s and women’s
jewellery tends to come in different styles, and you’ll probably want
different widths if your hands are not close in size.
My husband has a plain band that is nothing like my wedding ring. I had
a sort of a jacket made to fit around my engagement ring that would look
funny on its own. Many engagement rings come in a matched set with a
wedding band; the one that matched my engagement ring wouldn’t have
suited a man. So, I would guess it’s more common for the man’s and
woman’s wedding rings *not* to match — or to match accidentally,
because both happened to choose the simplest and most classic option.
Would it be enough for you if you had your rings identically engraved?
