For some couples, matching bands are the perfect way to symbolize a life together. For others, it may not be desirable or even practical. If the bride wears an ornate wedding band and the groom has simpler tastes, that’s completely okay, or the groom may work in a profession where a simple band is required. Your wedding ring is something you will be wearing for the rest of your life. It should be a reflection of you and your own personal tastes. You and your spouse are individuals, so it’s fine for your rings to reflect that individuality. Don’t be afraid to be original!
