Weddings are
definitely joyous but exhausting event. Aside from the basics like
searching for a venue, the wedding dress, the reception and the
like�one of the major considerations of countless couples who
are planning to tie the knot is the their wedding ring.
Usually, most
couples prefer a diamond wedding ring set because it is large enough
to be worn by itself. For those who are much into rings, a diamond
wedding set is perfect for you because it can serve as an engagement
ring and the wedding
ring all at the same.
Searching for
that perfect diamond wedding ring
can be stressful and strenuous because there are so many things to
consider such as the beauty, shape, size, and cost. The best thing
you can do is to trim down these options based on your personal
preference and taste.
Here are some
tips that can help you get by in searching for that dream diamond
wedding ring set. First, you have to choose a diamond wedding ring
set that suits your taste and of your fianc� as well. There
are actually many settings of diamond wedding ring sets available in
most jewelry stores today.
If you prefer
simple ones, you can opt for a diamond wedding ring set that has
contemporary or modern look like those rings with one main diamond
surrounded by smaller stones. But if you want a grander one, you
might want to look for diamond
wedding ring sets that have intricate designs or have
traditional and antique look.
Next, know
what kind of metal you prefer and also determine its weight based on
your budget. The most common setting of any diamond wedding ring set
is gold�it can be white gold or yellow gold. Based on standards,
fine gold jewelry should be mounted in either a 18-karat (K) which,
consists of 18 parts pure gold with 6 parts other metals or a
14-karat (K) that has 14 parts pure gold combined with 10 parts of
other metals.
If you�ve
finally decided to use gold for your diamond wedding ring set, decide
whether you want a 14-K or a 18-K. Most jewelers agree that a 14-K
yellow gold will last longer over time compared to the 18-K yellow
gold because it is harder. If you like white gold for your diamond
wedding ring set, 18-K is the best because it is whiter, harder,
and more resistant to scratches.
Other common
option is platinum because it has remarkable appeal and could last
longer. Since it�s more durable compared to gold, a diamond
wedding ring set made of platinum can resist breakage, chipping, and
cracking over time and most of all, it doesn�t cause any
discoloration of the skin.
Lastly,
consider the shape. The popular diamond shape for wedding rings is
round or brilliant because they tend to sparkle more than other
shapes. Other popular cuts for diamond
wedding rings include baguette, emerald shape, heart shape, oval
shape, pear shape, princess cut, marquise, and trillion wedding rings.
