WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE BUYING A DIAMOND WEDDING BAND

A woman’s diamond wedding band isn’t like a pair of shoes—you can’t change it three times a day, and you probably don’t have a closet full of them.

This one ring is given to you as you make your vows, becoming a lifelong symbol of your love and commitment. Finding the right ring is important! Not all diamond wedding rings are the same. There are many different qualities and characteristics to take into consideration, so think carefully about what you want out of your diamond ring!  

PRECIOUS METAL

Metal type is very important to the overall look and feel of your diamond wedding band.  

White Metals

White metals are very popular right now because their bright white finish beautifully complements the whiteness of diamonds, making the diamonds appear brighter. These white metals (platinum, white gold, and palladium) take a step back and allow the diamonds to be the center of attention.  

Yellow & Rose Gold

Yellow and rose gold are beautiful, distinctive options. These warm, alluring metals stand out against the sparkle of the diamonds, setting them apart from white metals. Yellow gold is seen as very luxurious as it is associated with pure 24 carat gold, making it a desirable option. Rose gold has also become very popular because it gives diamonds a soft, romantic glow.  Both yellow and rose gold complement a variety of skin tones. See full post here
