There are many traditions surrounding the wedding ring, which vary according to different customs. Most commonly the wedding ring forms the final symbolic gift following a series of betrothal gifts, beginning with the engagement ring. Today, eternity rings often follow wedding rings as a re-enforcement of vows, however the wedding ring remains the ultimate exchange and promise of eternal love and commitment.
The wedding ring is given during the ceremony, and worn on the base of the left hand ring finger. There it remains for the entirety of a couple’s life together, therefore finding the perfect wedding rings for each other is highly important.
Wedding rings or bands are available in 18 carat yellow gold and white gold, or platinum. There are a wide range of shapes to choose from, including bevelled edge wedding bands, D shape wedding bands and the popular court shaped wedding bands. You can choose channel set diamonds where the diamonds are set into the ring for a sophisticated finish, or claw set diamonds for a bolder effect.
Designing your own wedding ring is an ideal way to create the perfect ring. You can select the diamond, band and cut, allowing you to make a ring specific to your taste.
Also available are His and Hers wedding rings, which are identical in every way except for their size. These are ideal for any couple that want to wear wedding bands that correspond, and are available in white gold and platinum designs with a choice of diamond cuts and settings.
