FAQs About Wedding Rings

What’s the difference between wedding rings and wedding bands?

The terms ‘wedding rings’ and ‘wedding bands’ are often used interchangeably and mean the same thing. However, some people use ‘wedding rings’ to refer to more intricate designs with gemstones, while ‘wedding bands’ might refer to simpler, unadorned rings made of precious metals.

How much should you spend on a wedding ring?

Wedding rings come in a range of prices, from affordable to luxury. At AURONIA, our wedding rings start at £250 for simple designs. The cost varies based on the complexity of the design, the metal choice, and any gemstones added.

Do brides wear two rings?

Yes, brides traditionally wear both an engagement ring and a wedding band. The engagement ring is given at the time of the proposal, often featuring a diamond or gemstone, while the wedding band is exchanged during the ceremony.

Do couples buy wedding bands together?

Many couples opt to buy their wedding rings together, and this can be one of the highlights of wedding planning. Whether you purchase individual bands or opt for a matching set, the experience is highly personal. Alternatively, some choose to surprise their partner with a wedding ring.

Is it better to buy wedding rings individually or in a set?

Both options have their advantages. Wedding ring sets are often more affordable and ensure a harmonious design between the two rings. However, buying rings individually allows for more personal expression and flexibility in design. Since you'll be wearing your wedding ring every day, it's essential to choose something that truly reflects your style.

Do wedding rings have to be gold?

While gold is a traditional choice, wedding rings do not have to be gold. At AURONIA, we offer rings in yellow, white, and rose gold, as well as platinum, so you can find the perfect match for your style and lifestyle.

Do wedding rings need to match?

Wedding rings don't have to match. It’s more important to choose a ring that fits your personal style and one you’ll enjoy wearing daily. However, matching wedding bands can be a beautiful symbol of your unity as a couple.

Do wedding rings typically include gemstones?

Wedding rings can include gemstones, but they don't have to. Men’s rings are generally simple, often made from a single metal, while women’s rings can range from understated to elaborately adorned with gemstones. For a more minimalist look, some women prefer a plain, delicate band.

Should I wear my wedding band every day?

Wedding bands are designed for daily wear, but it's up to you. If your lifestyle involves working with your hands, it may be more practical to wear your ring on a chain or save it for special occasions. However, many couples prefer to keep their rings on as a constant reminder of their commitment.
