Unique Wedding Ring Boxes for Every Style
June, 6 2018
Traditionally, couples have used ring pillows to transport their wedding rings to the altar. Ring boxes are a fresh take on a classic tradition. A creative ring box will keep your rings safe on the big day, and it speaks to each individual wedding day and theme. While we love the creativity, you want to make sure that your ring box is just as functional as it is creative to avoid any wedding day disasters. And an extra bonus for ring boxes? You can store other trinkets and keepsakes in them after the big day!
We adore the variety of options there are when it comes to ring boxes. Seashell boxes are the perfect fit for the under-the-sea couple. The bring an interesting structural element and pearlescent sheen that looks lovely in wedding photography. Plus, seashell shape— especially a clamshell — naturally lends itself to a ring box. Whether it’s the real thing or made of silver, we love how playful this option is.
Glass boxes with metal detailing are the perfect home for a bed of greenery. The nature-loving couple will appreciate a vessel that brings a natural element. Try ivy, grasses, or moss. We love the greens paired with a glass box so that the rings and greens are safe but visible. This mini-terrarium is a sumptuous one-day home for your wedding rings.
You can also go for a glass box that swaps out the greenery in favor of geometric shapes. Geometric shapes capture the light and the rings. We love this one that hooks the rings and suspends them. So modern!
You can also keep it traditional with a velvet lined box. The classic ring box is always beautiful and shows off the rings. You can give it a modern update by having the box made with an unexpected material like glass, wood, or marble. You can get it monogrammed and have it to hold your ring for years to come.
A rustic chest is a perfect pick for a vintage-loving couple or a pair that loves to travel. It’s perfect for safekeeping and it can highlight your personalities. If you love adventure, a literal treasure chest might be the route you choose! For that extra touch, you can make a “treasure map” that leads to your ceremony location to pad the rings. No one will see it— except maybe your wedding photographer— but it's a romantic touch that you and your fiancé will know is there.
Another option for nature-loving couples is to go with a round, handmade ring holder. We love that these use the wood still in its truest form, monogrammed with your initials. If you or your partner enjoys woodworking, this can be a wonderful way to incorporate something that you’ve made into the ceremony.
A sweet macaron box is playful and unique. Because macarons come in so many different colors, you can pick one to match your wedding colors.
Whatever you choose for your wedding ring box, let it be a reflection of you as a couple. Bring in your wedding theme! Sometimes the smallest touches have the most sentiment and meaning.
