What Are Alternative Wedding Rings?

Alternative wedding rings are non-traditional wedding bands that replace conventional metals and gemstones with extraordinary natural or unconventional materials. At Risty Olivo, our alternative wedding rings feature inlays of genuine Gibeon meteorite, Hawaiian koa wood, reclaimed bourbon barrel oak, whitetail deer antler, moss agate, opal, Damascus steel, and guitar strings — all set in durable tungsten carbide bands. Each ring is completely unique, deeply meaningful, and built to last a lifetime.

What Are the Best Alternatives to a Wedding Ring?

The best alternatives to a wedding ring are ones that carry real meaning — materials with extraordinary stories that a plain gold band simply cannot tell. At Risty Olivo, the most popular wedding ring alternatives include meteorite bands (made from 4-billion-year-old Gibeon meteorite), whiskey barrel wood rings (reclaimed from retired bourbon barrels), deer antler bands (from naturally shed whitetail antlers), and opal rings (with a breathtaking play of color unique to every stone). Each alternative wedding band is a conversation starter and a commitment in one.

Are Alternative Wedding Bands Durable?

Yes — all of our alternative wedding rings are built on tungsten carbide, which rates 9 on the Mohs hardness scale — second only to diamond. Tungsten carbide is virtually scratch-proof and one of the most durable metals available for everyday wear. Each natural inlay is properly sealed within the band to protect it from moisture and daily wear. Your alternative wedding band from Risty Olivo is built to last as long as your commitment.

Do You Offer Matching Alternative Wedding Ring Sets?

Yes — most of our alternative wedding ring styles are available in matching men's 8mm and women's 4mm designs, making it easy to create a coordinated couples' set. Whether you want matching meteorite bands, matching koa wood rings, or a his and hers opal set, Risty Olivo has the alternative wedding bands for you.
