I really love these wedding band options, but what would you recommend for the men so that it would look like a matching set?

I don't think they have to be "matchy-matchy," so I think a plain band (or with some detail) would be just fine.

If he's into the scroll-work look...
Tacori or something similar.

Hi Sera! I Really LOVE this Tacori band that you have attached! In fact I even showed it to him a couple of days ago but he said it didn't really match... He's more of a sporty kind of person... Total clash cos I hate to exercise...

Well, you could pick up the two-tone look in 3 sections like the first two-tone ring you posted. Or pick up the 3-section look by having a groove in the top an bottom edges or the edges with a different finish than the centee. It might be a more manly look

Hi there,

Scott Kay has some "sporty styles" like he mentioned. They won't totally match but Scott Kay's styling still should go nicely with your ring.  I hope this helps.

Good luck

Don't know if this is sporty enough, but could go nicely with yours. Check out sevenfingers.com. He did my husband'd wedding ring. It is gorgeous(well, we think so :)!). When done tone on tone, they are subtle.

The Christian Bauer sera posted is high up on our list as well! We love that ring. I have been thinking of a wide wedding band with the rows of diamonds on each side as well. I think the CHristian Bauer goes will with that look. Has the two rows of diamonds minus the scrollwork. My soon to be hubbie decided he did not like the scroll work in rings due to it catching alot of dirt in it. I think it would go really well with the wedding band as well though :)

So, he's sporty...but he said it didn't match? So, does he care if you get matching rings or is it basically something you want? Many men don't bother getting matching rings unless the woman goes for a plain wedding band, because the more ornate the woman's ring the harder it is to find a ring that isn't too fussy for many men.

I'm sorry but I wouldn't be caught dead wearing a man's wedding band that matches those.  They may look quite nice on a woman, but no guy would pick that out for himself.  Sorry for being blunt.  I don't think wedding bands need to match.  I'd onlt get matching bands if they were simple traditional bands.  Otherwise each should have bands they like.

My wife and I shopped for my ring together and we ended up buying a tungsten carbide ring with a platinum inset from Tungsten World.  Like this but with Platinum.  Their service was great and their price was the best.

Yeah, I'm with speedracer, I wouldn't wear anything that would match those.  I prefer the more traditional look on a mens band and I don't feel that you have to match it with your spouses.  Just my opinion.

Thanks everyone! After showing some of these pics to him he decided to go with what you guys recommended... Something plain and simple although he's still about it... Cos yes, he prefers a matching set...
And yes SpeedracerII he wouldn't be caught dead wearing those feminine rings too! We'll most probably search for something similar to the lady's ring in terms of shape/size/width but plain.
