Who Buys the Mens Wedding Band?

September 26, 2025

When it comes to the actual purchase of a mens wedding band, while there may be traditions associated with this practice, most couples opt to treat this purchase as part of their wedding budget. At Melanie Casey, we believe the most important thing is using this exciting moment before your wedding day to mark the entry into your next chapter!

There are a few ways that choosing a mens wedding band can become a shared experience, whether it means choosing your wedding bands together or planning to match your wedding bands to one another. Here are a few tips to ensure that choosing a mens wedding band is a memorable occasion.

Make it a Moment

Choosing mens wedding bands is what you make it! Whether you’re visiting our studio in Andover, MA, or are perusing our collection of wedding bands for men in our virtual storefront, make this a special occasion.

First, set aside some time to talk about wedding bands with your partner. Perhaps you decide to pick them together or give your partner an idea of what you like and let them surprise you on your wedding day. Either way, as your partner is the person you’ll spend the rest of your life with, they are the perfect person to go to for insight and suggestions when choosing mens wedding bands.

Once you’ve thought through what you’d like in a mens wedding band, make the process of picking your band an event! If you’re choosing a mens gold wedding band virtually, start with ordering your favorite takeout or cooking a fun meal together and really make an evening out of it! Then, when it's decision time, think about the kind of mens wedding bands that fit your personal style and lifestyle. Is it a timeless classic, a unique mens wedding band, or something in between? Make a list of your favorites, and unless there’s a true standout in first place, take some time to think about it. Is there one mens wedding band you can’t stop thinking about? If you want the moment to be solidified in gold, consider matching your mens gold wedding band to your partner’s wedding band!

Made to Match

So you want to match your mens wedding band to your partner's wedding band? Whether you’re looking for two wedding bands for men or a mens wedding band and a womens wedding band, we offer many opportunities to match, from subtle to bold, throughout our collection from designer Melanie Casey.

Firstly, and perhaps most obviously, you and your partner can choose the same wedding band! While our wedding bands for men look great on their own, they also look beautiful in a ring stack. By far one of the most popular matching mens wedding bands we offer is the Hammered Band, with many brides opting to add a 2mm Hammered Band to their wedding ring stack, sometimes even alongside another diamond band. Many of our other wedding bands for men allow you to choose the mm width you prefer, meaning others, like the Half Round Band, or the Borderline Band, can also be either wider or thinner depending on your preference.

If matching designs isn’t your speed, try choosing bands with complementary elements. One simple and subtle way to do this is to match the metal of your partner’s wedding band. A mens gold wedding band easily complements a womens gold wedding band. You can also choose wedding bands with diamonds to complement a womens diamond wedding band. Both the Channel Band and Procession Band are unique mens wedding bands that feature diamond details.

Other unique mens wedding bands feature geometry or texture. If you’re looking for two mens wedding bands, consider matching the Cutout Band with the Octagon Band, which both use negative space to draw attention to geometry in different ways. If you want to pair textures between a womens and mens wedding band, consider matching the Swoop Band with the Dewdrop Band, a womens wedding band with texture, or even calling back to their engagement ring if it's a Sapling Ring, which features a nature-inspired scallop edge not unlike the Terrain Band. There’s really no limit to the possibilities when matching a wedding band (or wedding ring stack) to a mens gold wedding band!

So, you’re already married, but you want to celebrate each chapter that has unfolded since your big day with a piece of jewelry? Good thing mens wedding bands aren’t only for weddings!
