Wedding Ideas

Popular culture tells us that every woman fantasizes about her perfect wedding and her ideal diamond cluster engagement ring from childhood. And popular culture also teaches us that most men are not quite so quick to dream about marriage. But whatever the truth is, guys, you are planning a wedding now, and you are looking forward to creating a life with the woman of your dreams. You’ve shopped for a diamond cluster engagement ring for your wife-to-be. You’ve planned the perfect proposal. So here’s the question – have you thought about your own affordable wedding ring?

How to Pick an Affordable Wedding Ring for Men

1. Choose a Coordinating Ring

If you’ve already selected a beautiful diamond cluster engagement ring and matching wedding band for your bride-to-be, or if you have already chosen a bridal ring set together, then you may have an easy decision ahead of you. My Trio Rings offers three ring sets for purchase that include an engagement ring as well as wedding bands for the bride and groom. If you like the men’s wedding band that coordinates with your fiance’s set, then your decision is as easy as ordering the coordinating affordable wedding ring.

2. Decide on a Price Range

If you are having a hard time deciding on a wedding ring, and you are on a very tight budget, then the easiest thing to do may be to first narrow the possible ring options to a more manageable pool to choose from by simply eliminating any rings that don’t fit into your target budget. If you wish to stay under $300 for your wedding band, for example, then My Trio Rings offers five different ring choices in that price range, and it is up to you to decide whether you prefer a style that is more simple, more modern, or more organic.

3. Determine Your Style

If you’re like most guys, you may not have spent much time contemplating jewelry before. If this is the case, then you may need to take some time to narrow down your affordable wedding ring style choices. Do you prefer yellow gold or white gold jewelry? Are you more classic or contemporary? Do you prefer straight lines or curves? Do you prefer a lot of diamonds or just a few? If you can narrow your search, then it will be easier to know when you have found the right ring.

Seven years after becoming a couple, and six children later, Brad Pitt has decided to make it official with his long-time girlfriend Angelina Jolie. CNN confirms that Brad Pitt spent over a year working with a California jeweler named Robert Procop to design a diamond cluster ring to best fit his bride-to-be’s finger as well as her personality.

As of yet, the media has not gotten a good look at the diamond cluster ring that Brad Pitt designed for Angelina Jolie, but a recent Glamour blog post speculates about what the ring might look like. All that we know is that Pitt and Procop spent a long time searching for the perfect center diamond for the ring, and that a ring of side diamonds surrounds Jolie’s entire ring finger. Some experts are guessing that the center diamond is a large emerald-cut diamond.
