     Your wedding bands don't have to be gold.

     You might prefer a more ornate engraved ring.

     Select the band style. A simple band may be polished or brushed, domed or flat. More ornate wedding ring designs incorporate milgrain or engraving. Choose an appropriate width for your wedding band that will be flattering and comfortable on your hand. The inside of your wedding rings can even be specially formed for comfort and wearability&ndash-an important option to consider.

     Sparkling stones make some wedding rings more eyecatching than others.

     Decide if you&rsquo-d like to incorporate stones. If you&rsquo-re a couple that appreciates some "bling," you can incorporate stones into your design. Diamonds are, of course, the most common choice for wedding bands, but unconventional couples shouldn&rsquo-t shy away from an alternative stone choice. Remember: You are creating your own rings. Also determine the shape, size and cut of the stones you&rsquo-ll use.

     Your wedding rings made perfect for you.

     Have your ring hand crafted. Consider commissioning a less traditional precious metal artist or jewelry designer to create a ring that works for your aesthetic and even your personality.
