  • Another thing to consider is your budget. A personalized wedding ring saves a lot of your money. Don’t bother so much about the price. Make a ring and present it to her. It will give her much pleasure and an everlasting memory.


Things to consider
To design on your own a wedding ring, you have to consider the following things:


  • Setting

  • Metal

  • Gemstone, and

  • Cut



Setting: Setting is the first thing that can make your wedding ring unique. The setting of a ring determines the feature of the gemstone. Different ring setting types are mentioned here for you.


  • You can choose Prong setting. In this setting the jewels of the ring is fastened by the prongs. Six prongs are used for round jewels and four for princess cut to hold them in place. Be careful, if a prong is bent or damaged, the diamond can be lost.

  • Bezel setting is another preferable setting. In this setting a metal rim surrounds the diamond to keep it in place. This rim gives wedding rings height and dimension.

  • If you want to use jewels around the edge of the ring, channel setting may be the best for you. In this setting there will be no central stone at all.

  • Pave setting is basically a cluster of small jewels encrusted along the surface of the band. The jewels cover as much of the ring’s surface area as possible. Tiny beads or small prongs are used to secure the jewels in place.

  • If you are in short of cash, Bead setting can be suitable for you. This setting is similar to a Pave setting. But in this setting stones are not as expertly laid as Pave settings.

  • In Flush setting all gemstones are set evenly with each other and placed level into the metal without making it less likely to lose any stones out of the ring.

  • Ballerina ring setting is one of the classic and beautiful ways to display the gemstones in your ring. In this setting a main center stone on the ring is completely surrounded by smaller stones forming a circle around the main stone.

  • You can opt to set any setting from the above. But choose one that suits the lifestyle of your bride and makes her beautiful.


Metal: metal is the next thing to decide for creating your own wedding ring. Platinum, white gold, yellow gold and titanium are the most popular wedding ring metals. Among the metals, platinum is costlier but is the most durable. Yellow gold is traditional wedding ring metal. If you cannot afford platinum and don’t like the yellowness of yellow gold, white gold is the best option for you. Titanium is less expensive than any of the metals.

Select a metal according to your budget and the lifestyle of your bride. It’s not necessary to buy an expensive one. A cheaper metal can save your money to buy a bigger and better quality gemstone.

Gemstone: You can select diamonds as the gemstone of the wedding ring. When choosing a diamond one must be careful about the 4Cs: Cut, Clarity, Color, and Carat which determine the value of a diamond.

You can also put the birthstone of your beloved as the gemstone of the ring. Birthstones like agates, carnelians, amethysts, garnets, moonstones, pearls, bloodstones, ruby, opal, turquoise, emerald, sapphire, blue topaz and peridots are the stones from which you can select according to the birth date of your beloved. Surely this will make the wedding ring personal and unique.

Cut: Cut of the gemstone is another important thing to consider. Princess Cut, Oval Cut, Circle Cut, and Emerald cut are the most popular cuts that are available in the market. Besides these you can also create your own shape for the ring. This will give your ring more a personal look.

Lastly, it is advisable to purchase the materials from a quality outlet. But check and double check your design specifying all your requirements. Then go ahead and turn your designs into action.
