Well, well, well, what have we here? Halloween wedding rings? Oooh, I’m really scared…
It’s that spookiest of times where the veil between the living and the dead is thinnest: Halloweeeeen! And if you’re ring taste matches your taste in holidays, then this Halloween wedding ring roundup is for you. We tried to show a wide range of Halloween wedding rings — from engagement rings featuring skulls to black diamond solitaires to coffin shaped moonstones, and sleek goth wedding band styles.
As always, if any of these Halloween wedding rings speak to you, you can click the links to learn more. Lots of these styles are from our Offbeat Wed Vendor Guide, our community of the most bad-ass goth-friendly wedding vendors on the planet.
You don’t need an October wedding to wear a spider on your finger
A Halloween ring is a taste with no date attached. Plenty of people want skulls and bat wings on their hands in March, and nobody checks a marriage license for a seasonal clause. Scan this page and you’ll see how wide the category runs: a heart-shaped sapphire with a sword worked into the metal, a crow-inspired “caged bird” setting with dark claws, roses and thorns wrapped around a lavender stone, a spider whose web becomes the band. The stones lean toward red garnet and purple amethyst, with black rutilated quartz and one deep blue sapphire for variety.
Offbeat Wed readers have never needed a weirdness permit, so the useful question is which details you’ll enjoy looking at for decades. Skulls start conversations. A bat wing, on the other hand, can pass for filigree (one of the rings here is a black filigree band with bat-wing detail), which makes it the stealth option for jobs and relatives with opinions.
Every bat wing is a crevice: how to live with a Halloween ring
Detailed metalwork is the whole appeal and also the maintenance plan for some of these more ornate Halloween wedding rings. Clean your ring by brushing warm, mildly soapy water into the grooves with a soft brush, and skip the ultrasonic cleaner. Wearing a detailed ring in the shower lets soap film collect in the engraving so take it off first. Sculpted bands and claw settings also add texture you’ll feel all day, which some people love to fidget with and others can’t ignore, so ask for photos of the inside of the band if you want to be aware of sensory issues.
Once your Halloween wedding ring is sorted, our Halloween wedding dresses roundup is waiting… or if coffin cuts are what caught your eye in this post, we wrote a whole post about them.
