Alternative Metals
There are a few different types of alternative metals used for wedding bands such as titanium, tungsten carbide, cobalt, and ceramic wedding rings. These metals are not precious. It is an alternative choice to gold, platinum, and palladium wedding rings. WeddingBands.com only carries titanium and cobalt for alternative metals. Below can find more information about each alternative metal WeddingBands.com carries:
TITANIUM, Named for the Titans, sons of the Greek gods, Titanium, when pure, is a lustrous, grayish white metal. It has a low density, good strength, is easily fabricated, and has excellent corrosion resistance. It is mainly used in jewelry as an accent metal in Men's jewelry. Its inertness and ability to be attractively colored also make it a popular metal for use in body piercing. View More
COBALT, is an alternative metal, white color, harder than platinum, and similar to platinum appearance. Cobalt is not a precious metal. It is more scratch resistant than titanium and other precious metals. It can be sized slightly without cutting into the ring. The weights of cobalt rings are very similar to the weight of gold rings. Cobalt does not contain harmful alloys and as of today does not cause any allergic reactions. Read more...
Testimonials
I was amazed at how quickly the wedding band arrived. I thought it would take longer for the ring to arrive as it was an uncommon size 7.5
I am extremely happy with the quality of the wedding band! I would definitely recommend Weddingbands.com- Carolina,

Look around for the ring I wanted at all the name brand jewelry stores. I just wanted a simple clean wedding band and most were $500-$800. I took the plunge and found one on weddingbands.com and the quality of the ring was just as great but at 1/2 to 1/3 the price.- Arthur,

Recently I was looking for a new Wedding Band. Being somewhat apprehensive about companies that sell jewelry especially here in South Florida I went on the internet and came across WeddingBands.com. I contacted the company and spoke to Steve who was both informative and professional. I choose the ring I wanted and figured that if I wasnt satisfied with it I would just return it. Needless to say I have just received my ring and I could not be more pleased with it. Tremendous quality solid 18kt gold appraised at more than I paid for it.
THANKS AGAIN STEVE AND KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK. THE QUALITY OF AMERICA!- William K.,

We were skeptical about buying jewellery online - what if we get ripped off what if its not real gold is this too good to be true? We placed an order with Wedding Bands.com and hoped for the best and what we got was AMAZING. We ordered my band first - a thin white gold band engraved on the inside and in a size 4.5 tiny! and it is gorgeous..the engraving is so beautiful and perfect regardless of how small the ring is and the ring is flawless. We ordered my fiances ring and were again so happy with the product - heavy yellow gold in such a beautiful tone and flawlessly made and presented. Thankyou so much Weddingbands! If youre not sure about buying your bands on here - believe me - it will be your best and pocket-friendly! wedding decision. Oh and shipping took a total of 3 weeks from order to delivery!- Sian J.,
