They normally match in color but it's not a must. Mine is platinum and we are getting his in titanium. It's cheaper and stronger then white gold... and we both decided it would be crazy to spend the money on a platinum ring for him when he can't wear his ring at work.

I am married and my husbands band and mine do not match exactly but they have several things in common. Our rings are the same design, same karat but different metals.Mine is yellow gold and his is white gold.As you can read, i like the idea of having some featrures in common but that is just me.It is perfectly okay to have rings that do not matrch at all.Its about the commitment and the meaning that the rings have andf not about the metal.
Hope this helps and good luck.

I strongly suggest that the two of you get matching bands. By matching, I mean matching metals. You may get away with gold/platnum, buy why would you do that? If your rings don't match, it will give the impression that the man you are with, is not your husband. Look forward to dirty looks and lots of explanation.

My ring is yellow gold and my husband's is white gold. We each picked out what we wanted. It's more important for you to each be happy with a ring that you'll be wearing for the rest of your life than for your rings to match each other.

Nothing is mandatory in a wedding.
My wife has a black hills gold wedding band with a diamond in it (she picked out the ring). I have a gold band with five sapphires in it. The rings look nothing alike, aside from having holes to put a finger through.

I don't see ANY reason why they should or shouldn't match ... I say get him a ring that suits him the best ... or one he really likes ... everyone has their own personal style ... ask him what he likes ... some guys don't like flashy things and some guys do ... get a few ideas and go from there ... !
We have the same cut diamond but totally different types & style of rings ... we love them because we both had our rings custom made ... one of a kind ... !

No, the rings don't have to match. There are no rules when it comes to personal adornments. My husband and I have identical rings (plain gold bands), because this is what we both wanted.

No, they don't have to match. Just because you'll be married doesn't mean your tastes in things change. You might want a plain band while he wants something studded with diamonds!
And because of work, my hubby couldn't wear a ring so he did, only when we went out. Didn't make us any less married.

I think this is a matter of personal preference, if you want them to match then by all means let them, if not, don't. My first marriage, our bands matched. This go round I'm using my Mama's wedding set(for sentimental reasons) and his band is titanium from Overstock.com. The band is just for show anyway, it's whats in your hearts thats important!
Best wishes for a successful marriage!

No, they don't have to match. Most guys like 10K yellow gold because it is extremely durable, requires no care, and is really classic.
My husband and I didn't have matching bands, other than they were both yellow gold. However, once he lost two - I refused to replace it again!
