Women’s Wedding Rings

Men’s Wedding Rings
Men’s rings complete vows in a wedding ceremony and symbolize a commitment. Traditionally thicker, they come in various styles like simple platinum, yellow gold, or white gold bands, often matching the bride’s ring. They can feature diamonds, gemstones, or textured designs. Alternative metals like palladium, titanium, tungsten, and stainless steel are gaining favor too.
Diamond Engagement Rings
An engagement ring is a symbol of a couple’s intent to marry. Almost always given during the marriage proposal, the engagement ring is usually selected by the groom, often with help from the mother, sister or friend of his future bride. Once a couple is engaged, the woman wears the engagement ring as a token of her devotion to her fiancé.
Solitaire Engagement Rings
The most popular style for engagement rings is a classic setting of gold or platinum with a single or “solitaire” diamond taking center stage. The solitaire diamond is a timeless symbol of fidelity and commitment. This simple ring can make an elegant or dramatic statement depending on the size and cut of the diamond and the style of setting selected.
Side Stone Rings
A diamond setting with additional side stones is another popular style for engagement rings. This striking setting features a larger center stone, usually a diamond, flanked by complementary diamonds or gemstones.
Matching Diamond Ring Sets
Matching engagement and wedding ring sets ensure a harmonious style for brides. The wedding ring typically fits below the diamond engagement ring, preventing clashes. After the wedding, consider welding them together to prevent rotation and friction, especially in softer, high-carat gold rings.
Alternative Engagement Rings
Diamonds are the most popular adornment for wedding and engagement rings, but they are by no means the only option. Many people choose a more unusual gemstone for their engagement ring, such as a ruby, aquamarine, sapphire, pearl or even a semi-precious stone like amethyst quartz or the diamond look-a-likes cubic zirconium or moissanite.
Gemstone Center Stones
Consider emeralds, rubies, or other center stones as refreshing diamond alternatives for a distinctive engagement ring. Popular ring options include blue sapphires (symbolizing faithfulness), emeralds (representing peace, hope, and revival), and rubies (signifying passion, love, and glamour). Pearls evoke elegance and purity in antique-style jewelry and engagement rings. These gemstones are often paired with the same settings and metals as diamond rings.
Other Rings To Choose From
Promise Rings
A promise ring represents a promise made either to yourself or to another. It can be a vow to achieve an important goal, a promise of loyalty to a friend, or most commonly, the promise that comes before an engagement.
Claddagh Rings
