When it comes to weddings, the classics are always here to stay: white dresses, crisp suits, beautiful bouquets, scenic church views, dreamy music, etc. 

Wedding trends come and go, and if you’re an adventurous soon-to-wed, you may be inclined to try some of them out in the cut or length of your dress, the type of shoes you wear and maybe even your reception venue setup. With wedding rings, however, it pays to stick to the classics: straight cut, not too big nor bright, yet still made of fine, precious metals and stones. 

Here are 3 good reasons to go for a classic wedding band. 

They Complement Your Engagement Ring

When your engagement ring already sits pretty on your finger, ready to dazzle anyone who lays their eyes on it, getting another statement-making ring is out of the question. You don’t want your wedding band to clash or upstage your engagement ring; you’d want them to match. Simple bands are designed to complement statement jewelry. 

Whether you have a studded or plain one, classic wedding bands won’t clash with your engagement ring. And, whatever the cut and shape of your engagement ring, a simple band will sit perfectly on top of below it, creating a stacked look and adding  a contemporary twist to your style. 

You Can Effortlessly Match With Your Spouse

Wedding rings come in pairs, so matching is a no-brainer. The more contemporary and unconventional styles, however, may not work for both spouses. Classic is always the foolproof choice for any and all design preferences. 

You Can Update and Upgrade Them 

Classic means versatile, not plain. A trademark of a classic wedding band is symmetry, and though some feature precious stones as central pieces, unlike in engagement rings, they don’t outshine the rest of the ring. Eternity bands are studded with several stones, and you may choose to update them by adding a new one to commemorate anniversaries and other milestones. 

With symmetry being a key factor in the design, it’s also easier to personalize the piece with engravings of you and your spouse’s name and wedding date. 

As with many other things in life, when it comes to wedding bands, the classics are a worthy investment. Timeless in style and designed to be for keeps, indeed, you just can’t go wrong with them.
