    If you are planning to tie the knot soon, you have a lot of decisions to make. Getting married in a dream wedding is the most special moment of life. But at the same time, it is also a huge responsibility.

    Out of many important decisions, selecting the wedding ring is a primary one. While the wedding is for one day, the rings will be a part of you for the rest of your life.

    For many couples, it can be stressful to find out the perfect wedding rings. Do you go for simple bands? Or an extravagant one like a  set?

    To make these decisions easier for you, we have a simple guide.

    Wedding ring styles

    When it comes to wedding rings, there are a few varieties for both women and men. Typically, the engagement ring is the more dramatic one with a lot of options. However, you have many options for wedding rings as well.

    …for women

    Wedding bands

    These are timeless and classic. Plain wedding rings are so simple that they will compliment any engagement ring. You can customise these with a vow or name or with something special.

    Eternity rings

    If you want that extra brilliance in your wedding ring, we suggest going for a gorgeous eternity ring. Eternity rings work in perfect harmony with your engagement ring if you choose the right style.

    You can match gemstones as well or choose something that will compliment your engagement ring. For instance, if you have a diamond engagement ring, a sapphire eternity ring would work perfectly!

    Bridal ring sets

    This is a clever idea if you want to save a few bucks for your wedding. Bridal sets work very well together as they are designed to fit perfectly with each other. You can choose something subtle like this black diamond rings set.

    Or you can go traditional with diamond ring sets like the one below.

     

    …. for men

    Plain wedding bands

    This is a classic choice for the groom. A plain band works well if you are someone who wants to be low profile. But plain wedding bands include a lot of intricacies. There are patterns and some fancy details which make them gorgeous. You can also opt for something customised, like a name or a special message.

     

     

    Diamond rings

    If you want your man to match up with your stunning gemstones, go for a simple diamond wedding ring. There are stores like AG & Sons, which make exquisite collections of fabulous diamond wedding rings for men. The styles are subtle yet glamorous.

     

    Tips to consider while buying wedding rings

     Determine the budget at the early stages

    Right when you start planning the venue, decoration, and other stuff, decide on the budget you want to set for wedding rings. This shouldn’t be a last-minute decision. Setting the budget early will keep the total wedding budget in check.

    There can be slight differences depending on ring setting, metal, designs, and choice of gemstones. For instance, a set of blue sapphire wedding rings will of course be more expensive than simple wedding bands.

    Choose something that complements your engagement ring

    When you select a wedding ring, it should enhance your engagement ring. Especially if you want to wear them together, both the rings need to match each other well.

    Suppose you have a black diamond ring in white gold or platinum for your engagement ring. Now, going for a simple diamond wedding ring in the same metal will be a perfect addition to your finger.

    Selecting a different metal and a contrasting gemstone for a wedding ring won’t play well.

    A ring that matches your lifestyle

    After being in the industry for so long, we always suggest couples for wedding rings that suit their lifestyle. Why?

    This is because your lifestyle decides whether you should go for simple low-maintenance jewellery or something dramatic. For example, rings with too many gemstones might not be ideal for a chef. It would trap food grease and spices which can ruin the jewellery. However, that won't be a problem for a teacher.

    When in doubt, choose classic

    Have to make a last-minute purchase? Go for classic wedding rings. They never go out of style!

    And the best part is that these classic bands are very convenient. You can also go for simple bespoke wedding rings.
