While your fiancé may be handling the big picture planning, guys still have their own wedding to-do lists, one of the most important things being selecting his wedding ring. For many guys, this is their first serious jewelry purchase and they want it done right. There are so many options for men from the classic plain yellow gold to actual meteorite. To start you off in the right direction, we’ve narrowed the search down to the top 5 most popular ring styles of 2018. You’ve spent a lot of time thinking about her ring, now it’s time to find the perfect ring for you!

1. Plain & Classic

It’s hard to argue with a classic! While unique bands are fun, plain bands will continue to be a top seller in 2018. The simple bands, set in gold or platinum, are timeless. You’ll be as happy with your ring on your 50th anniversary as you were on your wedding day. If classic and understated is your style, this is the band for you!

2. Brushed

Brushed finish rings are also a popular choice for 2018. Brushed wedding rings, also referred to as satin, matte or wire finish, are finished with a wire brushed texture created by taking a spinning brush to the outer surface of the ring. This gives the band a subtle, understated look without the shine and flash of a traditional mirrored finish. Both mirrored and brushed finishes can be applied to a wedding band. We also love the combination of these finishes on a ring, best of both worlds!

3. Black

Black wedding bands, often made of palladium, tungsten or carbon fiber, are a huge hit right now and will continue to be on trend in 2018. The perfect match for the non-traditional guy, these edgy rings are also hypoallergenic and more affordable than traditional platinum or gold bands. You’ll be certain to stand out in the crowd with this unique band!

We love the combination of white gold and rose gold shown in this ring; an instant win!
