Various Styles of Engagement Rings From Which to Choose

There are many different styles of engagement rings on the market today. With every new year comes new trends and styles women find attractive. However, whatever style you like is all a matter of personal preference. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to the type of jewelry you will wear for the rest of your life.

Solitaire diamond engagement rings have long been popular due to their clean lines and elegance.  There is just something about having one single stone on a plain band that exudes decadence. Sometimes less is more!

Vintage rings are also popular. These rings remind you of times past, and are very beautiful, too. These engagement rings often have halos around the center stone or stones. This adds to their luster. Their bands are usually very intricately designed with lots of detail and tedious designs. You can tell by looking at one that the craftsman is very talented at what he or she does!

There are also three stone rings that have not one, not two, but three center stones! This allows you to have a very splendid display of diamonds to serve as a beacon to the entire world that you are off the market.

Being Picky When it Comes to Wedding Bands

The wedding bands you exchange on your wedding day will be not only a symbol of your love and marriage, but also your personal style and taste. There is nothing wrong with being a little picky when it comes to this ring. Some men do not care about the kind of diamond wedding bands they receive, while other men have a clear idea of what they want to wear on their finger.

Women are a little bit trickier. Sometimes the man will buy a bridal set where the engagement ring and the wedding band will come as a package deal to make sure they match perfectly. This will eliminate her being able to pick the wedding ring. However, some men just buy the engagement ring and she will have the option to choose her wedding ring. If your bridal jewelry is really important to you, you need to tell your boyfriend or fiancé so you can both be on the same page when it comes to purchasing something she can live with forever. You will see these wedding bands for the rest of your lives. Your wedding dress will likely only be worn once, but your rings will be seen every single day.
