The primary difference between an engagement ring and a wedding band lies in their design and symbolism. An engagement ring, often more elaborate, typically features one or more diamonds or gemstones and is given at the proposal to signify a commitment to marry.

In contrast, a wedding band is usually simpler, often a plain metal band or one with modest embellishments, exchanged during the wedding ceremony to symbolize the actual marriage.

n the realm of fine jewelry, eternity bands, also known as full eternity rings, distinguish themselves from wedding bands in their purpose and design. These exquisite rings feature diamonds or gemstones that wrap around the entire band, rather than just the front half. They are also not traditionally exchanged on the wedding day; instead, they serve as a cherished gift marking significant milestones in a couple's journey, such as the birth of a child or a special wedding anniversary.

If you want that extra sparkle, an eternity band can always be worn as a wedding band! At GOODSTONE we encourage you to choose what resonates with you on your special day.
