I am often asked by couples whether their wedding rings should match or not. The answer is, there is no hard and fast rule and is down to personal preference. Broadly speaking there are three options open to couples; perfectly matched wedding rings, being individual and choosing a style you like or that suits you best, or the styles chosen by Claire and George a couple who picked up their wedding rings yesterday.
The ladies’ wedding ring is a broadish platinum band with a row of channel set diamonds off-set along one edge so they are fully visible when the wedding ring is worn along with her platinum 3 stone sapphire and diamond engagement ring I hand crafted for her 18 months ago. As the centre round sapphire in the three stone engagement ring is larger, and protrudes, a slightly broader wedding ring had to be used so as to allow the line of channel set diamonds to be fully visible.
The gent’s wedding ring was a broad flat platinum band with an 18ct. yellow gold wire applied across the top of the wedding ring, off-set along one edge, which ties it in style to the lady’s diamond set wedding ring and compliments it perfectly.
Sometimes it just needs something subtle in the design to link them together.
