The tradition of a promise ring evokes an ever-enduring sense of romance, and through the years the promise ring has evolved both in custom and in concept. Today’s couples eschew the notion that only one person in the relationship wears the ring. Promise rings are a symbol both individuals wear to represent a promised commitment, and many couples are adding a new element to elevate the romance and update the tradition of the promise: Matching Promise Rings.

When a relationship is solidified with a ring, the couple is openly displaying that they are committed to another. A promise ring on the left hand is meant to scream “TAKEN” for anyone who might notice.

The options of matching promise rings to evoke a couple’s own unique love story are infinite. For some couples, romance conjures up floral designs, roses, or wispy vine infinity rings.

Romance can be found within the heart and with the help of the imagination to create a ring design for the couple that evokes their own love story. Ready to get inspired? Here are 7 unique and romantic ideas for matching promise rings:

Matching or Complementary Engraved Rings

Simple gold, white-gold or platinum bands can be inscribed with a phrase, word or symbol that speaks to the couple. Messages can be funny (Taken!), sweet (I’m His/Hers), Biblical (a Hebrew inscription for “The Song of Solomon 6:3”), or the inscription can be simply the names of the couple. Wearing each other’s initials on a ring is a classic romantic tradition. Initials can be set with diamonds or any gemstone. You can also engrave a fingerprint!

Birthstone Promise Rings

A ring can be designed to include the birthstones of the couple. A simple and sweet representation of two becoming one. Whether a ruby or an emerald, a splash of color can make the ring even more unique. Maybe you’re an April baby while your significant other was born in September? Show off your promise ring with a mix of diamonds and sapphire!

Tie it All Together

Rings can be designed to feature bows or knots. A bow or knot around a finger has long since been a sign to “remember.” A promise ring featuring a knot or sweet bow design is the perfect romantic reminder of a forever promise. A trinity knot is also popular to reference Christian theology and the importance of tradition to the couple.

A Shared Passion

Using a symbol representing a shared interest as a ring’s focal point is a beautiful way to create a unique matching promised set. A music note could be used for a couple who are both musical, an anchor could represent sailing, etc. Or a ring with something unexpected, such as a screw or a striking design, can show the couple’s daring nature.

The Classic Ring Choice

For the couple who is refined, simple and just wants a no-nonsense ring, a classic delicate band is a traditional way to signal a commitment. Whether a band is crafted in yellow gold, white gold, tungsten, platinum or silver, the ring will signify a relationship that is as timeless as the ring itself.
