28 of the Best Wedding Bands for You and Your Partner

You’ve got the ring! You’ve found the dress! You’ve selected the cake! Now it’s time to pick one of the best wedding bands—for you and your partner. “Wedding bands are a very personal choice,” says jeweler Stephanie Wynne Lalin, half of the sister duo behind Jemma Wynne jewelry. Just like the engagement ring, there are various schools of thought for the wedding band: traditional—meaning hugging right up next to the band like a puzzle piece; mix-and-match—a band that’s fairly opposite from the engagement ring such as plain gold next to all pavé diamonds, etc; and avant-garde—modern, unusual, and often bespoke.

Marin Instruments Skin Diver

I love being able to review new brands like this, especially when they have hit a home run their first time at bat, which is not easy to do. Marin Instruments has two versions of this model, the Standard shown here and the Polar, a white dial, and both are limited in production, 300 and 200 units respectively. The Skin Diver evokes many different models from the 60s when this style of watch became very popular, and many brands these days are
