Q | How do we find wedding rings perfect for us and our budget, without compromising quality and value? |
A | The Team says: When shopping for your wedding rings, you must consider various factors including your lifestyle, budget, and even your engagement ring. Don't forget to give yourselves time to explore your options, as finding the perfect rings can take longer than you might think. •Comfort is important You'll be wearing your wedding ring every day, so comfort is key when choosing it. For this, you must consider the shape of your wedding rings. The most popular ones are court and D-shape. Many find that court-shaped rings are the most comfortable choice because they're rounded on the inside and on the outside of the band, whereas others prefer a D-shape because they're flat on the inside and sit flush against the skin, but are still rounded on the outside. •Choose the right metal There are a wide variety of metals to choose from such as yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, platinum, palladium and even titanium. Yellow gold, white gold and platinum are the most popular, and palladium and titanium are often chosen by those who work very hands-on jobs as they are hard-wearing. Each metal comes with its care requirements, so it's important to think about that when you're shopping. •Consider the style you want When choosing a wedding ring, you'll find a wide range of styles to suit every preference. Some opt for a classic plain band, while others prefer diamond-set or shaped designs that pair seamlessly with their engagement ring. You can also explore crossover, patterned, and woven styles, among many other unique options to suit you. •Shop together It's surprising how much of the wedding planning process is done separately, given that marriage is all about partnership! That's why we strongly encourage couples to shop for their wedding rings together. Choosing your rings as a team allows you to share ideas, offer honest opinions, and support each other in finding the perfect match—it's a wonderfully romantic experience. You can pop into any F.Hinds store and speak to an expert wedding ring advisor, no appointment is needed, or browse their collection online. |
