Choosing Your Wedding Ring

Traditionally presented as the final gift from the groom to his intended, the wedding ring is a symbol of commitment and never ending love. There are now many styles of wedding ring, some simple and some ornate – the choice can be overwhelming.

With this ring I thee wed…..

When choosing your ring it is understandable that you may be swayed by the design but it’s important to remember that you will be wearing it every day, forever after. A wedding ring which is a good fit and comfortable to wear should be the foremost consideration and the design very much secondary.

This doesn’t mean you have to play safe with a plain band, there are many elegant but subtle designs available which provide the opportunity to make a statement without being uncomfortable to wear.

Wedding Ring Styles

There are four basic styles of wedding ring:

The four main styles of wedding ring

  • Court Rings – The most traditional style with a rounded profile, most commonly referred to as a ‘Comfort-Fit’
  • Flat Court – As the name suggests, this kind of ring has a flat surface on both the inside and outside;
  • Concave – Rounded on the inside like a court ring but with a concave exterior;
  • Diamond Set – A diamond set wedding ring can come in all shapes but is set with diamonds for added glamour.

Buying Wedding Rings On-line

There are obvious advantages and disadvantages in both cases although it’s likely that you will get better value for money when buying on-line.

The biggest reason why people prefer to buy their ring from a traditional store is the option to try various styles without the hassle of having to send things back and wait for a replacement.

While this is true, to an extent, you have the advantage when buying on-line that you can take your time without a shop assistant pressuring you. Also, many of the leading internet jewellers offer a fair and simple return policy so you don’t have to worry about getting a refund if you change your mind or need to exchange sizes or styles.
