Choosing a Wedding Band in Hatton Garden

Getting married is a wonderful time in your life filled with much happiness and joy. Organising the big day is a great experience, and will be thoroughly enjoyed by all those lucky enough to be in attendance. It is very easy to get caught up in the arrangements however, and so try to avoid leaving the selection of your wedding bands / rings to the last minute. Here are a few tips on how best to prepare for wedding band shopping in Hatton Garden jewellers.
A style to suit you
First and foremost, you have got to find something that you love. Classical wedding rings are lovely, but they are not to everyone’s taste. Choose a ring that you want to wear as opposed to a piece that you think you should wear – otherwise it will be consigned to the jewellery box. Hatton Garden jewellers have all sorts of wonderful wedding rings on display and so keep looking until you find the perfect match!
Gold or platinum
When it comes to your selection of metal, pick carefully. For ladies, the wedding ring should match the same metal as her engagement ring to prevent excessive wear. For gentlemen, assuming no other rings are worn, 18ct gold or platinum are very popular choices. If your choice is 18ct gold, you might like yellow, red or white in colour, however do bear in mind that white gold is often rhodium plated for its beautiful white colour (and so you will likely have to regularly re-plate it to avoid discolouration).
Perfect fit
Next, let’s think about the width of the wedding ring. Wedding bands tend to range from 2mm to 8mm in width and so you have plenty of options available to you. When looking in Hatton Garden jewellers, ask the consultant if you can try on a variety of measurements. Determining the proportion of the ring to your finger is as important a job as there is when it comes to wedding band shopping, so take your time.
Diamond set
If you love diamonds, have you considered a diamond set wedding ring? Such rings are worn by both gentlemen and ladies, and so if you fancy something a little bit different, view our eye-catching collection here.
