Good question! Picking your ring metal is important, influencing looks, price, maintenance and care. Couples may choose to buy matching or contrasting rings.
Platinum: The rarest of all available precious metals but also the strongest, whitest, and most durable.
White Gold: An alloy of yellow gold, mixed with white metal to deliver a shine comparable to platinum.
Yellow Gold: The most traditional of all wedding band metals. A timeless metal owing to its precious nature and rarity.
Palladium: Extremely popular amongst budding grooms, a member of the platinum family but 1/3 of the price.
Rose Gold: One of the trendiest metals of modern days, formulated using gold mixed with copper alloys and silver to deliver that lovely pink-red hue.
Silver: The most common of all precious metals, easier to source and a lot cheaper to buy.
