A wedding band is a ring you wear every day, so how it fits and what it is made of matter more than anything else. At Gavco Jewelers we carry and make wedding bands for men and women in 14K and 18K gold and in platinum. Plain bands, diamond bands, and engraved designs. We size each band at our own bench so it fits your hand before you leave, and the price is set before we start.
We are a family owned store, in business since 1993, with a 4.9 star rating from 1,139 reviews. You will find us at 16169 Biscayne Blvd, Aventura, FL 33160, a few minutes south of Aventura Mall with parking in front of the door. Picking your engagement ring at the same time? Start with our engagement rings in Aventura page and we will match a band to it.
Pick the Metal First
The metal sets the color, the feel, and a lot of the price. Most wedding bands are gold or platinum, and each one wears a little differently over the years.
- 14K gold is about 58 percent gold. It is harder and stands up to daily wear well, which makes it a common pick for a first band.
- 18K gold is 75 percent gold. It has a richer color and costs more, and it is a little softer than 14K.
- White, yellow, and rose gold are all real gold with different mixes for color. White gold pairs well with a white diamond ring. Rose gold has a warm pink tone.
- Platinum is a heavier white metal that does not fade and holds a diamond securely. It costs more than gold but many people like its weight and its plain white color.
Width and Comfort Fit
Width is measured in millimeters. Men often choose a band 5 to 7 mm wide, and women often choose 2 to 4 mm, though the right width is the one that looks and feels right on your hand. A wider band feels more solid and a narrow band feels lighter.
A comfort fit band is rounded on the inside, so it slides on easier and feels softer against the finger. A standard fit band is flat inside. Comfort fit is a good choice for wider bands and for anyone who has not worn a ring every day before. Try both in the store and pick the one your hand likes.
Bands for Men and Women
Womens Wedding Bands
Plain bands, diamond bands, and contoured bands shaped to sit flush against an engagement ring. In white, yellow, and rose gold or platinum. Bring your ring and we match the metal and finish.
Mens Wedding Bands
Gold and platinum bands in plain, brushed, and hammered finishes, usually 5 to 7 mm wide. Comfort fit is a common pick. We size each band so it clears the knuckle and still sits snug.
Diamond Bands
Bands set with a row of small diamonds, part way around or all the way around. We show natural and lab grown stones side by side so you can pick the look and the budget you want.
Match the Band to the Engagement Ring
A wedding band should look like it belongs with the engagement ring. Bring the ring in and we match the metal, the color, and the finish so the two read as a set. When the setting sits low or has a wide base, a straight band cannot lie flat against it. In that case we shape a contoured band that curves around the setting and sits flush.
Many couples have the engagement ring and the band soldered into one bridal set so the rings stay lined up and do not spin on the finger. We do that at our bench, and we can separate them again later if you ever need to. If you want a band designed from scratch, our custom jewelry in Aventura page shows how that works.
Sizing, Engraving, and Care
A band that fits right sits snug but slides over the knuckle. We size each band at our own bench, usually within a few days, so there is no waiting on an outside shop. Fingers change size with heat, cold, and the years, so a band can be sized again down the road.
Engraving inside the band, a date or a few words, is done before pickup. Years later, when a band needs a polish, a light retip, or a resize, the same counter takes care of it through our jewelry repair in Aventura bench. The ring you buy here is one we keep looking after.
A Wedding Band Store Near Aventura Mall
The jewelry stores at Aventura Mall carry name brand bands with the rent built into the price. Our shop sits a few minutes south on the Biscayne Blvd corridor. Same gold, same platinum, same diamonds, but the person quoting the price is the person sizing and finishing your band.
For more than thirty years, couples from Aventura, Sunny Isles Beach, North Miami Beach, and Hallandale Beach have picked their wedding bands at our counter. Many come in together and choose both bands in one visit. Bring your engagement ring, or come in with nothing but a wedding date, and we will help you find a band you will still like wearing years from now.
Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Bands
How much do wedding bands cost in Aventura?
The price of a wedding band comes from the metal, the width, and whether it holds diamonds. A plain 14K gold band costs less than a wide platinum band or a diamond band. We make bands to fit different budgets and quote the exact price before we start, so you know the number up front.
What is a comfort fit wedding band?
A comfort fit band is rounded on the inside so it slides on easier and feels softer against the finger. A standard fit band is flat inside. Comfort fit is a common choice for wider bands and for people who have not worn a ring every day before.
