Budget & Cost Breakdown

How much are wedding rings?

We're shopping for bands now. How much are wedding rings, realistically?

How much are wedding rings? A plain wedding band usually costs $200–$1,500, depending mostly on the metal and width. Diamond bands cost more.

  • Tungsten, titanium, stainless: $50–$300
  • 10k–14k gold bands: $300–$1,000
  • Platinum bands: $700–$2,000+
  • Diamond eternity bands: $1,000–$5,000+

Engagement rings are a separate (and bigger) purchase. Many couples buy both bands together — some jewelers offer a matching-set discount, so it's worth asking.
