Wedding Rings

An engagement ring is typically given during a proposal and often features a gemstone, usually a diamond. A wedding ring, on the other hand, is exchanged during the wedding ceremony and is generally a plain band or one with minimal embellishments, worn alongside the engagement ring.

The best metal for a wedding ring depends on your style and lifestyle. Popular options include platinum, known for its durability and hypoallergenic properties; gold, available in yellow, white, and rose varieties; and palladium, a more affordable alternative to platinum.

The best way to find your wedding ring size is to visit Chisholm Hunter and have your finger measured professionally. Alternatively, you can use a ring sizing guide at home, ensuring you measure your finger at the end of the day when it is at its largest.

Yes, most wedding rings can be resized, but it depends on the metal and design. Plain bands in gold or platinum are typically easier to resize. Rings with intricate patterns or stones may require more care, and some metals like tungsten or titanium cannot be resized.

Wedding rings do not have to match. Many couples choose rings that complement each other while reflecting their individual tastes. Whether you prefer matching bands or different styles, what matters most is that both rings are meaningful to you.

Wedding rings come in a variety of styles, including plain bands, diamond-set rings, eternity rings, and vintage designs. You can also choose between different finishes, such as polished, matte, or hammered, to personalise your ring further.

It is recommended to buy your wedding rings at least 2-3 months before the wedding. This allows time for resizing, engraving, or any customisation you may want. If you're purchasing a bespoke design, give yourself even more time to ensure the rings are ready for your big day.
