Wedding bands are the most symbolic piece of bridal jewelry most people wear. It represents the union of two people, joined by the ring finger. Romantics claim that the ring finger has an artery that leads straight to the heart. This is how the ring finger became endowed with the important duty of wearing wedding rings. Once married, most people seldom take off their wedding rings, which also symbolize their faithfulness for each other. And the plain traditional half dome band continues to be the most popular style in the midst of bridal jewelry because it captures the essence of love in its purest form.

Traditional half round wedding bands are plain and classic in design, and are a great choice for wedding jewelery. They are available in 14k and 18k yellow or white gold and platinum. A new process called comfort fit makes the inside of the rings slightly round, which makes the rings more comfortable for wear. Two tone wedding rings combine yellow and white gold, or yellow and rose gold for a unique, artistic look. Since gold comes in a number of assorted hues, there are many combinations of multiple colored designs available for those who fancy colorful jewelry.
