Alternative Wedding Bands for the Modern Bride

If you and your fellow have recently gotten engaged, you’re probably on the hunt for the perfect wedding band to accent your new ring-finger bling (if you didn’t already do so pre-proposal!). And with an abundance of interesting shapes, cuts, colours, and settings, there’s no need to settle for a traditional wedding band. The trick is to pick a band that will highlight your engagement ring without overpowering it. For example, if you received a diamond that runs on the smaller size, consider a blinged-out wedding band surrounded by diamonds to accent your solitaire. If your engagement ring already has a significant amount of sparkle, opt for a wedding band with simple yet chic embellishments. Think about mixing metals and textures as well -- who says you can't pair a traditional yellow gold engagement ring with a hammered rose gold band? Regardless of the style of wedding band you end up with, the memories you and your partner make once you slip it on will last a lifetime. We’ve searched high and low for the most interesting bands out there to help you select a flawless match for your engagement ring. Flip through our top 15 favourite alternative wedding bands that range from super minimalist to in-your-face glam for the ideal updated take on tradition.
