subject: A Ring Of Gold And A Gold Nose Ring Of Promise [print this page] Make sure when making your wedding ring selection it does not conflict with the engagement or else you will be off to the wrong start. A low key wedding ring is most advised because to siphon the spotlight from the engagement ring would be wrong. The purpose of the wedding ring remains unchanged as a way for two people to express their love and devotion for each other. This tradition goes back a long way and the true origins are probably lost but modern day etiquette dictates that the giving of rings is the final act of presenting gifts after the ceremony is complete.
This aging custom has been given a face lift over recent years by the giving of an 'eternity' ring which is designed to show the partner their lasting commitment to the marriage. Engraving on rings from one spouse to another have gained popularity in recent times. Not everyone likes plain bands so if your platinum wedding rings are a little bland for your liking, why not have a beaded edge engraved on either one or both, just as long as it suits your personality. There really isn't any right or wrong here providing you are both happy with your choice.
The ring customarily should never leave your finger and thus to observed in reverence unlike any other jewelry item you own. Always try to buy examples of the best quality that you can and you will not regret it. Never make the mistake of thinking that wedding rings can be bought for a discount price when they are something special that will be worn for many years; you will only regret it. Platinum wedding rings will be expensive anyway ad being a hard metal, it should last; however, they really need to fit well otherwise they will not look their best.
Measure your fingers at the jeweler before you buy the rings to avoid complications later down the road. This can work both ways with the possibility of wedding rings that will not slide over one or both fingers! Give the jeweler a couple of weeks so he can spend extra care on the rings. The best way to do this is to buy the platinum wedding rings as soon as the wedding date has been set as it can take a couple of months or more to have this work carried out.
There are many styles now available so give yourself adequate time to choose. A ring needs to look and feel like it belongs to its owners so find that perfect piece spend as much time as needed and use your personal judgment. A lifelong commitment such as marriage means that you buy rings that show this love and that you will both enjoy wearing every day.
