Not too long ago, most men who got married wore a simple gold wedding band to mark the occasion. Today, the options for men's wedding rings have become increasingly diverse. Platinum, titanium and tungsten have entered the scene. The traditional look is still available, but the choices are now a lot broader.

Consider the typical men's wedding rings over the past few generations. They're generally fashioned from yellow or white gold. They might feature a discreet pattern or texture. They are attractive and timeless.

Then there's the opposite extreme. For example, a contemporary tungsten band is ultra-hard and lightweight. It's ideal if you want a good looking, well priced ring that won't fall apart with regular wear. They're highly scratch resistant and can polish to a high sheen that looks a lot like silver.

Titanium is another new favorite among men. There are two kinds of titanium: black and light. Both are lightweight, durable and make for a stylish choice in a wedding ring.

Light titanium is gray in color and can be polished to a fine sheen. It can be inlaid with a stripe of yellow gold or crowned with a diamond that matches the woman's ring.

The manufacturing process that produces genuine black titanium allows for consistent color all through the ring. You'll never have to have it re-plated and it won't show scratches.

However, the type of metal isn't the only thing men have a choice with these days when it comes to wedding rings. Many men today prefer a smaller width band than those of generations past. The lighter weight and thinner style appeal to those who seek an unobtrusive ring that is still attractive.

These days, you're more likely to see a variety of gems in men's wedding rings, from diamonds to sapphires. The criteria for the stone's quality are the same as in a woman's wedding ring. Great cut, flawless clarity, fine color all apply.

To sum it up, a good example of a modern men's wedding ring is a narrow platinum band with a small oval diamond. Most men these days won't have any problem wearing a ring like this. Part of the reason is that they're more comfortable with being fashionable than has been the case traditionally.

All the attributes of the best wedding rings continue to be incorporated into modern designs. Qualities such as durability and the ability to resist scratches are still important. However, now there is a completely new range of stylish choices in men's wedding rings.
