Pave Band

Stand-Out Design

Because there are some engagement rings that catches more attention when worn alone. If your ring falls into this category, the best thing to do is to give up the traditional band entirely. But instead interchanging or using the ring as your wedding ring during the ceremony, why not just choose an equally eye-catching wedding band to wear on your right hand.

Contemporary Style Ring

An excessively decorated band will look out of place next to a modern engagement ring. So you must avoid flowery designs and just go for a stylish band with minimal decoration.

Vintage Ring

Vintage-inspired rings often feature ornamental work, engraving, and other intricate decorations. So if you have a vintage ring, pair it with a cohesive feel by choosing a band that accents your favorite element from your engagement ring.
