What Should You Consider for Wedding Bands: Alternative Metals or Precious Metals?

by Rich B. Blogger By Profession


A wedding band doesn’t only signify love and commitment but it can also be an everlasting family heirloom to be cherished in every generation. With the thriving popularity of alternative metals, tungsten, titanium and cobalt, more men are rooting for a lesser wedding band. You can find them online or offline, alternative metals have their own department, but it is deemed impractical to have their place in the wedding department. Precious metals have always been of value for years, but alternative metals don’t. While many brides don’t prefer a cake from a mix in an oven, many grooms go for the cheapest wedding band they can find.

Argument for precious metals

The precious metal wedding bands in Singapore can always be refinished and resized during the lifetime of the ring. While gold tends to scratch off, platinum and palladium wedding bands tend to lose weight when they are refinished. Many believe that platinum is easily scratchable. The gist here is that platinum is pushed ahead, and it will not lose weight because of normal wear and tear. Platinum is always worth the investment.

Why is it essential to resize and refinish a ring?

A study claims that when people get older, their activities decrease and they gain weight because of the same. It also stated that men gain more weight than women. Considering the same facts, the brides and grooms to be must always consider their precious metals in the top notch shape when it comes to the metal of their choice. For men, cost is an issue after spending on other wedding aspects like cake, invitation catering, laundry list and other wedding related needs. There are also instances where men have spent less on jewelry for themselves and hence, must be a tad bit reluctant to spend a fortune on a wedding band. But, this mindset must change. If you are buying something cheap, know that it may come bearing drawbacks. When you keep the precious metal of your wedding band as an added incentive — when a father may pass on his wedding band down to his son or grandson, it will have a lot of value. An alternative wedding band also have as much value as the items found in Home Depot. The hardware store will sell you tungsten and titanium, but your jeweller sells you platinum, palladium or gold as your bridal jewelry.
