How to Stack Wedding Bands with Your Engagement Ring

March 10th, 2021

Stacking wedding bands with engagement rings is becoming an increasingly popular fashion choice for brides. Creating the perfect stack of engagement rings, wedding bands, and other rings is an exciting pursuit with a fashionable payoff. Celebrate your love and find new ways to express yourself through unique combinations of ring/band styles, metals, and gemstones.

Build a new tradition full of exciting possibilities when stacking a wedding band with an engagement ring. When layering bridal rings, pretty much anything goes. Our bridal ring stacking guide breaks down the mechanics of building an eye-catching and personalized look that can make your bridal rings stand out.

Creating a Bridal Centerpiece

Wedding sets offer brides a luxurious pairing of two of the most important and romantic keepsakes of their lives. An engagement ring is the first addition followed by the wedding band. For some brides, buying a wedding ring set is a convenient way of finding a matching pair of rings. A bridal set of matching rings and bands are the perfect hosts for the rest of your finger party.

Stacking the Ring Finger and Beyond

Starting from an elegant base of an engagement ring and a wedding band, you can build out and add new rings above the set. There's no recommended order of stacking because every ring is so different. Just ensure that the stack doesn't interfere with your finger movements and dexterity. Feel free to branch off onto adjacent fingers to create a bolder look.

Get the Skinny

Thin bands lend themselves to stacking comfortably on your ring finger. Pair two, three, or more rings so long as you can comfortably move your finger. Some brides choose to match the width of their band and ring such as a thin ring with a thin wedding band. Of course, you can do the opposite to create a captivating contrast.

Polished to Perfection

Keeping a monochromatic look throughout your stack is perfectly acceptable, and so is diving headfirst into mixing metals. Add a sparkling flair by mixing different tints of gold (yellow, rose, white), industrial alternative metals, platinum, sterling silver, and so many more. Go beyond mixing metals by matching/contrasting textures, detailing, and styles.

Keep It Sparkling

On top of a diverse spectrum of vibrant and lustrous metal colors, you can add a natural sparkle with your choice of gemstone size, color, shape, and cut. Mix halo, three stone, and solitaire designs for maximum radiance. White diamonds on white metal can provide a cooler look. Or, you can mix it up with white diamonds and warmer yellow gold. Pink stones make an excellent pair for white diamonds.

Keep Calm

There's no rush in building an attractive stack of rings. Over the years, anniversary bands can be thoughtful additions to your bridal collection. In the meantime, you can play around with everything from basic to elaborate fashion rings centered around your engagement ring and wedding band designs.
