Which do you think is better, gold or white gold?
With diamonds or without?

    I think it's a matter of preference. Whoever is wearing the ring should be comfortable with what their partner gifts them.

    Why don’t you go wedding band shopping together? Decide on a budget and see what you like as you try them on. Have to think of purpose, will you take it off? Are you delicate in your jewelry? For example I’m a horse back rider, therefore not delicate on my jewelry so my diamonds are in a particular setting that’s sturdy and I have diamonds 3/4 around instead of all the way around, and of course it’s insured!

    I think this is completely personal preference, and there is no right or wrong. I agree with the previous poster’s comment- I would go to a jewelry store and try on a bunch of different options (different metals, settings, stones, etc.) and see what speaks to you! Sometimes what we like in pictures, we don’t necessarily like on our own hands. And also keep in mind what your daily routine is, how often you would like to wear the ring and how much maintenance you are OK with. For instance, if you want to wear your ring all the time, or if you work with your hands a lot, I wouldn’t get something with a high setting, as it catches on everything. And if you are wanting super low maintenance, you may want to stick with minimal stones, and either a yellow gold or platinum band, as the prongs on stones need to be inspected regularly and white gold will need to be re-dipped regularly as well.

    Absolutely ☺️ Also, don’t be afraid to get creative! Personally, I love diamonds! I knew I wanted multiple diamonds on my wedding band, but an eternity band was completely impractical for me, and most the diamond wedding bands in jewelry stores have settings that are too high for my comfort/daily activities. I also wanted a very specific cut to the diamonds which is rather rare, and none of the jewelry stores around me carried any in stock. So rather than settle for something else, I thought outside the box! I found a company that sourced for me the exact diamonds I wanted, and they were able to create a super low-profile setting for me so I can wear it comfortably all day and it doesn’t interfere with any of my daily activities. So if you get a clear picture of what you want in your head, but can’t quite find it, think outside the box!

    I heard those eternity bands break a lot, and they cost a fortune to fix. Might want to factor that into your choice.
