The Downside Risk of Tungsten Rings That No One is Talking About
(image: https://customtungstenrings.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Black-Pipe-Cut-Tungsten-Carbide-Wedding-Rings-with-Rose-Gold-Offset-Groove-and-Inner-Surface-from-Custom-Tungsten-Rings-800x800.jpg)Tungsten Rings as Wedding wedding bands: Pros, Cons, and Real Couples’ Stories
Jake, a firefighter, proposed with a $150 tungsten band. Three years later—zero scratches, despite dragging hoses and prying doors. "Gold would’ve been toast," he says. Emily, his bride, stacks a rose-gold tungsten eternity band. "We wanted rings as tough as our marriage."
Pros: scratch-proof, affordable ($100–$400 vs. $1,000+ platinum), hypoallergenic, permanent polish. Cons: non-resizable (weight fluctuations = new ring), heavy (some love, some hate), emergency removal requires cracking.
Sarah lost 60 lbs post-baby; her original tungsten carbide wedding rings spun like a hula hoop. Solution? Sold it on eBay for 70 % value, upgraded to a slimmer fit. "Still cheaper than resizing gold twice."
Military couples swear by tungsten—deployment-proof. One Marine’s ring survived an IED blast; only the silicone inlay melted. Replaced free under warranty.
Real talk: if you swell during pregnancy, size up or switch to silicone temporarily. Engrave post-ceremony if hands fluctuate.
Tungsten says "forever" without the fuss. Jake and Emily? Still shining.
