Five Facts about Wedding Ring Budget

1. Recession has hit almost every market today, and the jewelry industry is also not spared. Thus couples today spend each penny of their hard-earned money very wisely on jewelry. But the wedding jewelry especially wedding rings is the only adornment which needs to be worn for a lifetime and so its budget gets hardly affected by the cash-strapped conditions of the economy.

2. Even though the ring may be made of precious metals, but there exists a huge difference even between the prices of these metals. Platinum costs a lot more than gold, which makes gold a reliable option. Some brides and grooms-to-be today even select silver or titanium rings for lesser budget.

3. The designs of wedding rings are certainly something you cannot compromise, no matter how expensive the ring is. But traditional styles in rings like classic solitaire or three stone rings can surely help the budget a lot along with their irresistible charm.

4. Some couples also tend to substitute the expensive metal or design with its cheaper alternative to invest more share of the budget in a larger diamond.

5. Some brides may find an attractive metal band as wedding ring for their groom. But grooms hardly settle for a plain metal band how much ever the budget may constrain. Grooms usually opt for solitaire diamond rings rather than multi diamond ring for the bride, keeping in mind that diamonds will be something she’ll cherish forever.
