Wedding ring

The wedding ring (also known as a "wedding band") is an outward symbol of the commitment of two married individuals. The rings are typically exchanged during the wedding ceremony.

[edit] Notes

  • A bride typically already has an engagement ring that she was given at the time of engagement, and her wedding ring is generally worn next to her engagement ring.
  • The groom usually begins wearing his wedding ring on the wedding day.

[edit] Trends

  • Wedding band styles vary as much as engagement ring styles, even for the groom! Now couples can choose from plain, fancy, classic, contemporary, diamond, gemstone, carved, braided, engraved, handcrafted, and custom-made. The sky is truly the limit for you to make them your own.
  • Wedding bands come in an increasingly different amount of metals. Popular metals include yellow gold, white gold, platinum, titanium, tungsten, and two-toned.


[edit] Settings

  • Gypsy: In a bezel-like manner, gypsy settings feature diamonds sunk into holes, flush with the band's surface.
  • Channel: A channel setting is a band showcasing a row of diamonds, set flush against each other, between two horizontal channels.
  • Channel End: Channel end (also called "bar" settings) are bands with diamonds set side-by-side with metal bars in between.
  • Pave: Pave settings have small diamonds encrusting the surface of a band, giving the illusion of a solid surface of diamonds.
