The wedding ring
Wedding preparations require a lot on organization and time because the future bride and groom have a multitude of tasks to accomplish to celebrate the most beautiful day of their lives: choosing the date, the reception venue, compiling the guest list, selecting outfits (and especially the mythical wedding dress), not forgetting of course the wedding rings .
This highly symbolic piece of jewelry is worn by the two future spouses, who either select their wedding bands or opt for a custom-made design . While some couples choose to surprise their fiancée with a surprise engagement ring, the choice of wedding bands is generally made together. This first, emotionally charged step marks the beginning of their married life. These jewels, which will accompany them throughout their lives, are traditionally exchanged during the wedding ceremony to consecrate and seal the union of the spouses.
Gold ring
Classic and understated, simple rings are also delicate and refined. These models in yellow gold, palladium white gold, rose gold, platinum, or even two-tone are equally appreciated by men and women and symbolize loyal and sincere love.
By vowing fidelity, the bride and groom commit to each other and promise to love one another throughout their lives, and their wedding rings are a testament to their vows. The width of the ring and finishes such as domed, beaded, or hammered (among others) allow for the personalization of these timeless designs.
PLATINUM RING
Platinum wedding bands are also highly prized because they are made from a naturally white metal that, unlike white gold, does not tarnish over time. Therefore, it does not require rhodium plating and has the on advantage of offering excellent durability.
Diamond wedding band
Diamond wedding bands are also very popular, with women often choosing the "queen of gems." Synonymous with durability, the diamond immortalizes the true bond and authentic love that spouses share.
Settings adorned with this stone are elegant, refined, and distinguished. This timeless gem is a symbol of purity and a promise of eternity. Half-eternity, three-quarter-eternity, or full-eternity settings offer numerous possibilities, and the choice of diamond (brilliant, princess, marquise, pear, etc.) also allows for personalization of the piece.
The type of setting chosen is also important and gives character to the wedding band : prong, grain or channel setting, for example.
Creative and original design
For wedding bands too, creativity knows no bounds when it comes to bespoke jewelry , and the choice of stones is virtually endless. Gemstones offer a wide range of possibilities and open the door to a spectrum of different colors.
Often, couples who opt for an wedding band choose an original and bold design to give the piece of jewelry an incomparable style. These wedding bands frequently tell the intimate story of the couple on question.
These future spouses are particularly keen to create a piece of jewelry that is uniquely theirs and reflects their character. It's also a way for them to express a personality trait and demonstrate originality.
The wedding ring then becomes a totally unique where small details such as engravings or stones set inside sometimes conceal secrets known only on
Texture and engraving
Material effects such as sandblasting, brushing, sculpting, texture or even the spouse's fingerprint give the wedding band an absolutely unique character.
Regardless of the style chosen, couples traditionally opt to have an engraving placed inside the ring. Whether done by laser or by hand (which adds even more authenticity and charm), the engraving most often features the first name of their spouse and the wedding . However, there are no set rules, and the couple is free to engrave initials, a message, or simply symbols, for example.
Specific models or mechanisms
"Marry Me" Ring
Depending on the design of the engagement ring, it is possible to create a wedding band that follows the movement of the jewelry and fits the setting perfectly.
Ring “Union”
Sometimes, wedding rings are "slipped" into the heart of a piece of jewelry to form a single..
Secret Ring
On this particular model, two rings intertwine along the edge to form a single ring. The join is almost invisible, and the wedding band can contain a message or stones that are only revealed once the rings are opened.
Astrolabe Ring
Here, three rings are intertwined almost invisibly when the ring is closed. When opened, the three rings unfold to form a sphere, like an astrolabe. A message can be engraved on it, safely hidden from view.
