Buying an Wedding Ring

A wedding ring is the symbol of promises made on your wedding day. The wedding ring should reflect your love and the taste of the woman you are about to wed.

Budgeting for a ring is important. This will determine the diamond, the diamond cut, clarity of the diamond, setting, metal of the ring and the sparkle in your wife-to-be's eyes.

Buying – if you are planning to surprise your girl with an engagement ring / wedding ring, make sure that you know what she likes. If you take your wife-to-be diamond ring shopping, set aside an afternoon for fittings to find the right wedding ring.

If you designed the ring yourself, make sure a reputable jeweller makes your wedding ring. Ask for a valuation certificate with the ring.

Diamonds – diamonds can be obtained in a variety of colours, sizes and cuts. See our other article on diamond clarity grades.
