How do you choose the width of your wedding ring? What is the typical size for a men’s wedding ring? What is the typical width of a woman’s wedding ring? These are common questions we receive.

Based on our experience:

• Men – Approximately 80% of men choose wedding bands that are 4mm or 5mm wide. About 15% prefer 3mm or 6mm, with a few opting for rings wider than 6mm. Generally, wider rings tend to look more proportionate on larger hands or longer fingers. However, it’s important to choose what feels right for you; there is no definitive right or wrong choice.
• Women – Around 80% of women opt for narrow wedding rings of either 2.0mm or 2.5mm, with an equal split between these sizes. Approximately 2% choose 1.5mm, while the remainder select 3mm or wider. A 2mm wedding ring typically complements most engagement rings, which usually have a band width of around 1.8 – 2mm.

We are often asked whether the wedding band should be wider, similar, or narrower than the engagement ring. This decision is generally based on personal taste and what you find aesthetically pleasing. Most women tend to choose a wedding ring that matches or is 0.5mm wider than their engagement ring band.
