Yes, no …maybe? Decades ago, it was quite standard that a mans and ladies wedding band matched. Generally, the lady’s band was essentially the same style as the man’s wedding band but a lot thinner.

Lots of matching plain gold bands and carved bands were sold to show marital unity between a man and a woman. Fast forward to today and with all the metal options from cobalt, tantalum, titanium and ceramic and classic options such as gold and platinum, to an array of colorful gemstones and laser engraving options; people are customizing their rings to fit their unique personality and style.

No more do couples match just to match!
