How to Choose a Man Wedding Band: If You can persuade Him

Man Wedding Band - popular

Unless you are acquainted with a popular British band of the 1960s the term ‘Man Wedding Band’ makes no sense, although to have Manfred Man play at your wedding in the 1960s would have been a very large feather in your cap.

That would have been fantastic, but not as fantastic as having your girl answering ‘I do’ to the most important question you could ask of a girl, although that might be debatable by some. The answer I mean, not the question: some might prefer a straight ‘yes’ but that is another question! Having received the answer you were hoping for, you have both got a lot to think about and organize. She more than he when it comes to the Man Wedding Band.

Man Wedding Band - rings

One that you will both share, however, will be the question of rings. She will be looking for a beautiful engagement ring, with as large diamonds as you can afford, set in as high a carat gold or platinum as your credit card will run to. Your engagement ring need not be so fine, and many men choose not to have one. A Man Wedding Band, on the other hand (no pun intended), is becoming more popular with bridegrooms, and a man’s wedding band can be more difficult to choose than that of his fiancée.

The first problem with a Man Wedding Band is that they are generally not compatible. Yes, you get some men that wear lots of rings and chains, but they are few in comparison with those that don’t. Just walk down any street and have a look at the men and what they are wearing. Because of this, the average man will not be keen on spending much money on a wedding band. If you are buying a ring for a man, tell him that you got a great deal and beat the vendor right down to the wire and he will be delighted. The quality of the ring is immaterial to a man compared to the perceived ‘bargain’.

Man Wedding Band - size

The width counts. Whereas some men feel that if they must have a Man Wedding Band it should be as thin and inconspicuous as possible, others feel that it might as well be large and wide. If they must have it, make it big and they can boast about the great deal they got on it. If your man is not keen on rings at all, perhaps a tough tungsten ring will change his mind. Tell him it will protect his finger from getting crushed, or get him a black titanium ring that looks really masculine.

One thing a woman must do if buying their future husband a Man Wedding Band is to get him involved in the decision. If you give him a box, ask him to open it and expect him to be delighted you will be in for a dreadful disappointment. Most men hate getting jewelry as gifts, and if they must wear it they have to choose it themselves. That includes wedding rings, and if he must wear a ring then he will want to be involved in the selection process.

Man Wedding Band - jewelry

Don’t get me wrong. Not all men dislike a Man Wedding Band, and it can be an ethnic thing. Some races prefer jewelry more than others, and most men secretly like to wear a wedding ring when they are married when they wouldn’t wear any other type of ring. The woman might be surprised if she invites her intended along to the shop to help her pick her own wedding ring. He will likely get involved in the process and both of you will end up with rings in what you will find to be a painless process: apart from him when he gets his wallet out.

It is actually good psychology to take him along since not only will he get involved in choosing yours, but will be more likely to get something decent for himself with you there. Without you he would likely purchase the cheapest Man Wedding Band he could find from the local street market. Or perhaps that is unfair.

Man Wedding Band - choices

There is a lot more choice for a Man Wedding Band than just gold these days, and many of the alternatives will suit men who want something a bit different to gold. Tungsten is a lovely metal when highly polished and also very hard and resistance to scratches and blemishes, as opposed to gold that is a soft metal and wears quickly. Platinum is another, and although it is more expensive than gold, it also scrubs up well and looks good when highly polished.

It is titanium, however, that can convert most anti-Man Wedding Band with its beautiful dark silver color. It is distinctive and ideal for the man that does not like plain gold. There is a very wide range of wedding bands for men on the internet, and it is probably best for them to choose what they like best there, and then check out their choice in real life. It will also be apparent to men when they check up on the available choice, that they are not restricted to simple plain bands.

Man Wedding Band - alternative

Celtic designs are popular as are those with Arabic and other non-European style lettering. There is a wide range of possibilities that can persuade men to wear a Man Wedding Band, but in spite of all that the most popularly worn man wedding band is the plain gold band, followed closely by titanium.
