Choosing an engagement ring is a unique experience for each woman. They all have different outlooks on what makes their engagement ring fabulous. From the selection of the type of metal to the stone and its shape, it all makes it difficult to make her choice.

Materials or metals the ring can be made in ranges from Yellow Gold, to White gold (10k, 14k or 18k), or even Platinum, Titanium, and Palladium.

The main difference between the diverse metals is the price.  Gold is one of the most popular choices for an engagement ring. It is a precious metal, it is dense but still one of the most malleable and ductile pure metal Known. It is soft and shiny giving the jewellery rings a beautiful finish.

Stones to be chosen from can vary from Coloured stones to Diamonds or even Cubic Zirconium. The main difference between the two is that a Diamond is a native crystalline carbon that is the hardest known mineral.  It is usually nearly colorless. Diamonds make excellent abrasives, because they can be scratched only by other diamonds, or man-made materials, which also mean that they hold a polish extremely well and retain their lustre.  When transparent and free from flaws it is highly valued as a precious stone.

The most popular choice is usually the Diamond, but a cubic zirconium is well known as its substitute, due to its high hardness and great fire.  But in recent years, it has established itself as a gorgeous gem in its own right.  CZ is a beautiful synthetic gemstone that is durable and inexpensive and now even comes in any color of the rainbow, making it even more desirable.

Diamonds, Cubic Zirconium or any other coloured stones come in a vast array of different shapes and sizes. Shapes vary from Round to Square, usually referred to as Princess Cut, Heart Shape, Emerald Cut, Marquise, Octagonal and more. These shapes are available in Diamonds as well as for Coloured stones.
I have encountered different types of customers throughout my 12 years of experience in the business. Some like to have the most expensive ring on their finger made out of platinum along with the top notch quality diamond. This is ok if you can afford it although personally I think white gold or palladium looks just as good and would cost half the price.  This is a personal choice and usually the woman has her mind set on what she wants even before getting engaged.

Other women aren’t particular to what the ring is made of and are satisfied with any type of ring which represents a symbol of love and is to their liking. A promise ring is usually the term for a ring which symbolizes love as well as a commitment between two people. It can also be used as the engagement ring when the time comes. These promise rings are mostly made in Gold with diamond set or color stone.

Want to get married? Getting married? Not sure what type of Wedding or Bridal Jewelry you will need?


First and foremost, the most significant and sometimes mandatory in some cultures is a wedding band. Some cultures and religions require the wedding band to be made of a specific Karat gold, such as 18kt. Others require that the band be completely round and plain with no markings or engraving on the interior or on the exterior of the ring. This is usually to convey deep emotions of eternal love, eternal happiness, eternal commitment, and eternal togetherness. The wedding band, is a complete circle with no break and no end or beginning, which means that it just goes on and on – it is eternal.

For most, wedding bands styles are chosen according to the individuals’ personal preference of color, width and finish.

For those who have engagement rings , most of us, it represents care and affection between the giver and the recipient and is considered to be more of a tradition. It appears to make the woman feel some kind of bind to her mate before the wedding occurs. It gives a mutual warm feeling of “she’s mine” and “I’m his” to both parties involved.

It is very common for the future bride and groom to have their wedding bands matched in terms of color, design and shape. Again, that feeling of “togetherness” arises. What tends to happen is that the bride finds a wedding band to fit and match her engagement ring and the groom ends up getting something according to what she chooses. It usually is slightly wider than hers but the design will remain the same. I have attached a sample Bridal ring with a matching ladies band that is 4mm wide, along with a matching mens band which is 6mm wide.

I guess this is the beginning of the woman being the leader in the marriage .
