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
Hello WeddingBands.com, I just wanted to thank you so much for your most excellent customer service in getting my husbands ring to me in a quick and timely manner. Your follow up with me was excellent and I really appreciated it. I was a nervous wreck until you called me with the tracking number. We love the ring!!
Its very beautiful.
Tell me this though? If he thinks he wants it a size 13 versus a 12.75 is that possible to get it enlarged?
Thanks again

I dont usually give testimonials but in this case one is due.. I looked at a lot of stores for the ring I wanted.. no one seemed to carry mens wedding bands especially white gold.. I found the size I wanted and the comfort fit but was unable to purchase a ring locally. We planned an October wedding so time wasnt a factor.. well plans seem to change un expectedly and we had to move the date to September... so I had to find my ring quickly in steps wedding bands I placed my order on a Thursday for a following Saturday ceremony figuring the ring would come in a couple weeks it would be okay.. to my surprise they got right on it even with the free engraving the free shipping the guarantee that I would be satisfied my ring arrived in less than a week in plenty of time for the most important day in my life.. perfect fit beautiful engraving couldnt have ask for any better service or quality... thank you so much I will recommend your company any time ...- mark o.,

I cant commend this company enough for the great product and even better service through the entire purchase and delivery process. Being overseas I was worried about delivery times and service quality but not anymore! It was great to learn that a REAL PERSON answers customer service emails. They even went out of their way to expedite my order due to the extra shipping time. Thanks very much!! It was just as easy to handle the return and replacement process. I know that Ill be buying my anniversary bands through this site/company as well.- Mike C.,

I have been buying items from the Internet for 20 years - some good some not so good. You know the saying Buyer beware...I found Wedding Band.com and it took two weeks to decide on a design. The rings I ordered arrived in a timely manner. When I opened them I was truely impressed with the color weight finish fit and the inscription was perfect. An absolute 10. I am thrilled to be getting married and I know that my ring will stand-out from the ordinary bands so many other people wear. With so many rings to choose from...go...peruse...settle on a design...order...you will delighted.- Thomas A.,

Two-Tone Gold Comfort Fit Wedding Band - Item 110361. My wife bought this wedding band to replaced the one that I had lost while on a camping trip. This is the exact Byzantine Rope- Coil design that I had for over 25 years. I thought I would never be able to find the exact design ring but WeddingBands.com had it. The quality is nothing less than excellent. The support representatives were great.- Paul,
