Titanium Wedding Bands: The Future of Wedding Rings
Titanium wedding bands are becoming more and more popular every year. Although only a small portion of jewelry stores offered titanium as an option in the past, now almost all jewelry stores, online and offline, offer a fabulous range of different styles of titanium wedding bands.
Men are the biggest wearers of titanium as they do not want the “gold” look. This allows them to maintain a certain personal style and edge, even after they are married. What is more titanium is a much cheaper less precious metal so people that are afraid of losing their wedding band have less to worry about. This is also great for builders or other tradesman who are constantly using their hands and do not want to damage their wedding ring.

Titanium Wedding Bands: The Finish
Titanium wedding bands are often mixed with other metals to create a duo-tone look and feel. The two-tone look helps to create a unique and fashionable product that is sure to stay “cool” for years to come. For example, titanium can be mixed with white gold (as seen in the image below) or with carbon fiber (as seen above) for a dramatic and beautiful effect.

Titanium and Carbon Fiber Wedding Bands
Titanium wedding bands are chic. Many people like to mix titanium with a carbon fiber, adding a splash of black to the ring. This makes for a fabulous look. This kind of design is particular popular with "indie" men, who think mainstream jewelry is for the girls and who like the industrial look and feel of titanium-carbon fiber metal. Titanium and carbon fiber bands also have a very futuristic and technological feel to them, which makes them popular with unique types of people.

Titanium Wedding Bands: Prices
Titanium jewelry prices are much, much cheaper than gold. You can expect to pay between $65-$180 for a titanium wedding band. If it is mixed with yellow or white gold, the price could rise to above $300.00 dollars, however. And at that price, you might as well buy a 14k yellow gold wedding band, instead of a titanium one.
Most people who purchase titanium bands do so because they can't afford gold and they end up paying under $200. Titanium wedding bands are predominantly worn by men and most titanium jewelry is for men. The rationale behind this is that precious metals and diamonds are more important to women and women's jewelry than to men's jewelry.
If a couple is on a tight budget and cannot afford precious metal wedding jewelry for both the man and woman, it usually makes more sense to purchase a precious metal engagement ring or wedding ring for the woman, and a titanium wedding band for the man.
