Are matching engagement rings an homage to tradition or a timeless classic? Modern trends in the jewelry world cast aside all prejudices and give the wedding image a new sound. The standard picture is the bride wants a ring with a diamond and a beautiful pattern, and the groom, on the contrary, is inclined to the laconic classics. How, in such a case, to come to a compromise? Or maybe there is no point in wasting time looking for it? Let’s try to figure it out.

When you put gold rims on each other’s ring fingers, symbolizing the eternity of love, you are taking part in a ritual that has been linking the lives of men and women for thousands of years. However, time does not stand still and modern jewelry trends make adjustments – wedding rings are getting new shapes and designs. How can newlyweds find the best combination of vancouver engagement rings? 

Do matching wedding rings have to be the same or not?

Modern wedding fashion does not give a simple answer. Those who honor traditions put the question straight: only the same wedding rings, without carved details and patterns.

Especially when jewelers deliberately offer different variations of rings in contrast to give the bride/groom character and personality.

There are other benefits to this as well:
