When preparing for a wedding, many sensitive issues arise that you could hardly predict. We have already written about how to avoid unnecessary gifts, how to respond to tactless remarks about a celebration, and how to defend your boundaries before the advice of relatives. Now we’ll talk about the nuances when choosing wedding rings, which take many brides by surprise.
“How much is it normal to spend on an engagement ring?”
There is only one correct answer here: exactly as much as you think is necessary. There are many rings on the market, so you only need to choose the one that suits your couple's style, budget and mood. For example, today it is possible to buy a laconic silver jewelry with gilding for up to 10 thousand rubles in a stylish jewelry store during an evening walk around the city. Or you can choose engagement rings with diamonds at Tiffany&Co with a glass of champagne. or order jewelry according to your individual design. In any case, both the budget and the selection process itself should be comfortable for you - this is very important.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT GOLD RING
SELECTING A SAMPLE OF A GOLD RING:
To choose a gold ring, you need to decide what type of gold ring you would like to see.
The higher the sample, the more gold there is in the ring, but the softer it is, the faster it wears and scratches. The smaller the sample, the stronger it is and the less it wears out. The most optimal standard is 585, where 58.5% of the total weight of the ring is gold, not counting precious stones. BLOCKED OR NOT BLOCKED:
Before you buy a gold ring, you need to decide whether you will buy a blown ring or a non-blown gold ring.
A gold ring made of blown gold differs from a ring made of a non-blown ring in that a blown gold ring has a cavity inside itself, is cheaper in price, lighter in weight and has a larger volume, but there are also disadvantages. So, when choosing a gold ring made of blown gold, you need to understand that the thinner the gold (as a rule, the walls of a blown gold ring are thin), the more difficult it is to repair and the more often it wears out and breaks. SPATTERED OR NOT:
If your budget limits the options for choosing a gold ring, you should consider buying a gold ring with sputtering, i.e. the ring is made of plain metal, and the surface of the metal is coated with gold plating. The disadvantage of such gold jewelry is that the plating wears off and the ring loses its golden shine; roughly speaking, such a ring is not durable. There are also advantages of a gold ring with plating, but it lies in its very low price.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT SHAPE OF A GOLD RING
CHOOSE FOR CLOTHES:
Remember that a gold ring should match your clothes, so if you go to sports training and wear a tracksuit, then a large gold ring with a large gemstone will not look good, but if you wear a gold ring with a large gemstone to a social ball, then such a ring will fit perfectly.
For everyday wear, it is best to choose a conservative gold ring, suitable for various clothes, including, if necessary, sportswear. CHOOSE FOR YOUR HAND:
Small thin rings with a small amount of precious stones are best suited for younger females, as well as women with thin fingers and bodies.
This ring will highlight your figure and the beauty of your hands. For wealthy adult ladies with incomplete fingers and bodies, a massive ring that emphasizes the status of a woman in society is best suited, while a small narrow ring may not emphasize the status of an accomplished woman. For adult ladies with full fingers and bodies, wide-profile rings are suitable, which will lengthen the fingers, but it is better to choose a round stone for a ring with a full hand. Also in this case, you can choose an angular-shaped gold ring with an oval-shaped stone. For those with long fingers, any ring of any shape is suitable, except for a wide gold ring. CHOOSE A RING SIZE:
Before choosing and purchasing a gold ring, you need to try it on, and if you plan to wear it on different fingers or the same fingers of different hands, then you need to try it on each finger, since the size of the fingers can be different.
If you bought a smaller ring, don't worry, it can be stretched. CHOOSING A RING ACCORDING TO AGE:
For young girls, it is best to choose a ring that emphasizes the virginity and fragility of a young princess, and for this, exquisite small (narrow) gold rings with white precious stones look no better. For older ladies, rings should have precious stones, and the gold ring itself should emphasize your status in society. Source
“There are so many pre-wedding worries that the purchase of rings was postponed until the last month. Will we be on time?
When the venue has not yet been booked and the menu has not been approved, you want to postpone a trip to the jewelry store - it seems that there are more urgent and important things to do. You may well postpone the purchase, but we strongly advise you to worry about the rings no later than a month before the celebration. Firstly, you have no idea how difficult it can be to find even the most classic and simple model, the ideal image of which has formed in your head. Secondly, many boutiques make wedding rings only to order, and the production time, as a rule, starts from 30 days.

“Do wedding rings always have to be the same?”
Sometimes brides get upset when they notice that they and the groom like completely different rings, and they just can’t come to the same model. Yes, there is a certain tradition that wedding rings look identical, but you don’t have to follow it - it’s better to play it up in your own way! For example, make different rings with the same engravings on the inside. If you are going to wear jewelry every day, you should be one hundred percent happy with it, you should feel comfortable and good with it - and so should the groom.

husband doesn't wear a wedding ring
I'm probably a superstitious person. But all the signs work with me. So I decided and is slowly sharing the signs with you. Maybe someone will need it.
Here are the wedding signs for starters.
Outfits and decorations
.
1) The wedding dress must be new, you should not rent it - you can get other people's troubles. Better modest, but your own.
2) Choose closed shoes - so that wealth does not run away.
3) The groom’s suit should not be the same color as the bride’s dress - otherwise the wife will have a masculine character, and the husband will have a feminine one, and this does not help strengthen the marriage.
4) Wedding rings can be inherited - but provided that the couple wearing them had a happy marriage.
5) The bride is not recommended to wear pearl jewelry - this will lead to tears and adultery.
6) You need to pin a pin to the inside of the young people’s clothes - this will protect them from the evil eye.
A trip to the registry office
1) Before the registry office, the groom picks up the bride from her parents’ house in a wedding car. There is no need to decorate it with dolls - it is believed that this can cause infertility in a couple. But the symbol of fidelity - swans - will come in handy. The same goes for classic jewelry in the form of rings. Bells are also good - their ringing attracts wealth.
2) After their departed daughter, parents need to wipe the floor to make it easier for her to enter the new family.
3) They do not go to the registry office directly in order to confuse the evil spirits that can harm the young. For the same purpose, empty cans are tied to the rear bumper of the wedding car (their roar scares away the devils) and they honk loudly when they drive up to the registry office. It is also undesirable to drive across the bridge - the wedding may be upset.
4) If the wedding cortege encounters a funeral, you need to turn onto another road so as not to invite trouble.
5) Arriving at the registry office ahead of time means a happy family life.
6) When leaving the registry office, guests shower the newlyweds with rice and coins (for wealth) and rose petals (for long, passionate love).
7) The groom carries the bride in his arms to the car - so that they have peace and harmony in the family. They cannot cross the road at this moment, otherwise they will not see happiness in their family life. To prevent envious people from taking advantage of this sign, the witness walks half a step ahead of the newlyweds.
Feast.
1) When the newlyweds come to the table, they are led around it 3 times by an older member of the bride or groom’s family - to seal their lives into one.
2) Before sitting down at the table, the young people break the plate and step over the fragments, holding hands. This ritual protects against quarrels.
3) The bride cuts the cake, and the groom holds the knife. The bride gets the first piece, the next - the groom. And then - everyone else. This ritual is performed for this purpose. so that harmony and mutual respect reign between spouses.
“Who pays for wedding rings?”
And this question often arises, especially if you and your fiancé do not maintain a joint budget and share expenses during preparation. Here, too, do what you think is more convenient and harmonious in your couple. Many modern brides and grooms buy their own rings, especially if they are slightly different in design. It happens that parents take on this expense - and then the rings become their wedding gift.

“Does the ring need to be looked after somehow?”
As a rule, no special care is required - the decoration, of course, is a fragile thing, but it is not a pet or a flower. Most often, it is recommended to remove rings before showering, playing sports, or cleaning with chemical cleaning agents. If possible, do not remove the ring when washing your hands in a public restroom - there is a high risk that the jewelry may fall into the sink and be lost there forever. For your peace of mind, you can show the ring to a jeweler once a year: he can clean it and identify some minor defects, such as a loose stone, and fix everything.

For a long time, a wedding ring has been associated with the strength and fidelity of marriage. However, recently one has noticed a considerable number of married people who prefer not to wear this element, which symbolizes the strength of the marriage bond. At the same time, one should not make hasty conclusions by attributing unproven characteristics to such men.
It is important to understand why this or that person does not consider it necessary to put a wedding ring on his finger.
Why do people wear wedding rings?
In order to draw certain conclusions regarding married people who do not wear wedding rings, it is advisable to reflect on the question: “Why exactly do they put a ring on the ring finger?” As is known, despite the ancient tradition, there is currently no need to put wedding rings on the fingers of those getting married; with the modern marriage procedure, this action is not required. There are no laws requiring you to bring a wedding ring with you to the registry office for marriage. Young people can get married without having such an element of decoration with them. At the same time, an unmarried person can easily afford to wear a wedding ring, if he considers it necessary, without getting married. A young man, conditionally engaged to his girlfriend, can, if desired, put on a ring as a sign of devotion and love in a fit of youthful maximalism.
Wearing a wedding ring (for all its paramount importance) is not an accurate determinant or proof that a man is legally married. Girls, due to their emotionality and penchant for romanticism, sometimes wear a wedding ring on their ring finger as a sign of devotion to their groom long before the wedding day. Thus, the meaning of the ring should be determined as a kind of symbolism that does not oblige one to enter into a marriage bond for life. For some people, wearing a wedding ring in marriage is still important. The reason is usually appropriate upbringing, a model for example on the part of parents who considered it obligatory to always have a ring with them.
Reasons why married people don't wear a ring.
Since the tradition of wearing a ring is passed down from generation to generation, some people consider it important to observe it. At the same time, the new passage of time has changed man's perception and his views on various outdated traditions. Today it is quite common to see married people who are skeptical about wedding rings. If a person considers feelings to be more important than conventions and there is mutual understanding, love between the spouses in a marriage, and there is also confidence in the partner, there is no need to confirm one’s feelings and fidelity with the help of such symbolic decorations. This case refers to people who do not adhere to generally accepted ancient rituals, but there is no reason to doubt their sincerity and reliability.
If the husband stopped wearing a wedding ring.
Some married men wear a wedding ring at the request or insistence of their spouse. At the same time, it is impossible to be confident in a person who is capable of negative actions, even if he wears a wedding ring and never takes it off. Among the reasons why a married person may refuse a ring is inconvenience, unpleasant sensations on the finger while performing certain work. In this case, the man’s field of activity is not important, since the presence of the ring can cause some discomfort in any case. If a husband unexpectedly refuses a ring, this does not at all indicate his infidelity or desire to leave the family.
Unlike women, men are more indifferent to this kind of jewelry (as well as rituals) and most often do not want to wear things that cause even the slightest inconvenience. It is quite possible that after many years of marriage, the spouse considers the marital bond to be strong enough that it does not require confirmation in the form of a wedding ring.
“What should I do if I don’t like the ring?”
It’s nice to play up this situation and choose new rings, for example, for a wedding anniversary. You can renew your vows at the same time!
