Choosing the Metal
The metal you choose for your wedding ring plays a significant role in its appearance and durability. Common options include:
- Yellow Gold: Classic and timeless, yellow gold complements all skin tones. Though it is a relatively soft metal that requires regular care and maintenance, it provides a vintage look and goes well with warm skin tones.
- White Gold: Offers a contemporary look and pairs well with diamonds. White gold complements cool skin tones with its versatility and can serve as an alternative to platinum. And not to miss, it complements diamonds very well.
- Rose Gold: A romantic choice with a pinkish hue, Rose Gold comes off as a perfect choice for the romantic in you and can be alluringly unique in its appeal. It complements both warm and cool skin tones.
Consider your style and the metal your partner prefers when making your selection.
