Diamond Set Rings

Thinking of a diamond studded band? Consult our diamond basics.

Today there are thousands of wedding rings to choose from for both the bride and the groom. Bands for both bride and the groom can be traditional, such as a simple round ring in gold or more decorative bands in one or two tone, thin or wide, diamond or stone studded. Traditionally a woman receives two rings - one upon agreeing to marriage and one at the wedding ceremony. Some couples go for a diamond set wedding band instead of buying an engagement ring and a wedding band. A diamond wedding band combines the symbolism of the simple round ring with the symbolism of the diamond. The choice of having two rings could also depend upon the length of the engagement.

For him, his wedding ring may be the only other piece of jewellery he will wear apart from his watch. Although a wedding ring is small there is a lot of detail which can be crammed into such a small space. Remember that the wedding ring symbolises your love and commitment. What counts is how much you like the rings and how well they suit your fingers.
