Every great love story deserves a perfect pairing. At Faire & Fine, we believe your wedding band should feel like it was destined to sit beside your engagement ring, because, in our hands, it is.
1. Begin with the ring that started it all
Your engagement ring holds the first chapter of your story. Now it’s time to choose the piece that will complete it.
Metal matters – Matching metals and finishes creates effortless harmony, yellow gold with yellow gold, platinum with platinum. But sometimes, love isn’t about following the rules. Rose gold embracing platinum can be as striking as a perfectly timed glance across a crowded room.
Setting style and stone shape – Is your ring a sleek solitaire, a halo bursting with light, or a trilogy of brilliance? The wedding band you choose should echo its rhythm, enhancing its beauty without ever stealing the spotlight.
2. Band styles that speak your language
Plain & perfect
Choose a timeless option, like our Court Shaped Wedding Band in Platinum, Rose or Yellow Gold, for pure, wearable elegance that highlights your engagement ring’s main attraction.
Diamond-set delight
For refined brilliance, go with a straight, diamond-set band such as the Cut Down Round Diamond Eternity Ring, a classically elegant choice that scatters light beautifully without curving, ideal for both solitaire and halo settings.
Curated curves
To achieve a flush, bespoke look, consider the Curved Wedding Band with Round Lab Grown Diamonds, crafted to contour gracefully alongside your engagement ring’s structure.
3. Harmonies for every ring style
| Engagement ring style | Wedding band match inspiration |
|---|---|
| Solitaire | A slim, high-polish band for timeless elegance, or a fine pavé to scatter light with every movement. |
| Trilogy / Three-stone | Mirror the stone shapes for a look that feels composed, deliberate, and exquisitely balanced. |
| Halo | A curved band with matching diamond accents, catching the light in chorus with your halo. |
| Art Deco | Minimalist and architectural—a simple straight band lets the design’s geometry speak for itself. |

Frequently asked questions
Are lab grown diamonds real?
Yes. Lab grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds. The only difference is their origin, created in a state-of-the-art laboratory rather than formed underground over millions of years. Every lab grown diamond we offer is certified and ethically sourced.
How much is a man’s wedding ring?
At Faire & Fine, men’s wedding bands start from a few hundred pounds for classic plain styles, with prices varying depending on metal, width, and design details such as brushed finishes or diamond accents.
Who pays for wedding rings?
Traditionally, each partner buys the other’s ring. Today, couples often decide together, sometimes splitting the cost or choosing based on individual preference.
How much should you spend on a wedding ring?
There’s no fixed rule. Many couples spend between £500–£3,000 depending on materials and craftsmanship. We recommend choosing a ring you love, that fits your lifestyle, and that will last a lifetime, rather than following an arbitrary budget formula.
What is the most common wedding ring for a man?
The classic plain band court shaped, often in platinum, yellow gold, or white gold—remains the most popular choice for men, we often refer to it as the 'Dad Ring' as its what everyone seems to have! Its timeless design ensures it never goes out of style.
What is the difference between an eternity ring and a wedding ring?
A wedding ring is traditionally exchanged during the marriage ceremony, symbolising commitment from that day forward. An eternity ring, often given on anniversaries or milestones, features a continuous circle of diamonds or gemstones to represent everlasting love.
Can you wear your wedding ring on its own?
Absolutely. Many people enjoy the simplicity of wearing just their wedding band, whether for comfort, travel, or style. A well-crafted band, plain or diamond-set, is beautiful in its own right.
Do men wear diamond wedding rings?
Yes. While plain bands are most common, more men are embracing diamond accents—subtle pavé, single-set stones, or channel-set designs for a touch of individuality.
What is the best metal for a wedding ring?
Platinum is a favourite for its durability and naturally white lustre, but yellow and rose gold offer warmth and timeless elegance. The best metal is the one that suits your style, skin tone, and lifestyle.
Can a wedding ring be resized?
In most cases, yes. Plain bands and many diamond-set styles can be resized, though full eternity rings may require a remake to maintain the continuous design.
Should a wedding ring match your engagement ring?
Not always. Matching metals and styles create a cohesive look, but mixing metals or contrasting styles can be equally striking. It’s a personal choice that should feel authentic to you.
When should you buy your wedding rings?
Ideally, at least three to four months before the wedding. This allows time for bespoke designs, resizing, and any engraving or hidden birthstones you may wish to add.
