Shiny or matte? Here's all the latest trend to help you and your man towards the very best.

Metals:
Yellow gold was the standard back then. Now it's time for white metals to take place, namely, white gold & platinum. Platinum is very hot right now cause it's pure, rare, and eternal. Should you choose white or yellow gold, you have the option of 14 or 18 carats, depending on your budget. You can combine both white and yellow gold as an accent for eachother if you just can't make up your mind ;-) Don't forget about one metal which popularity is rising. Titanium it is. What advantage does Titanium have? In a nutshell, Titanium is light, strong, corrosion-resistant, and bio-compatible. Use pure Titanium instead of Titanium alloy, and beware of jewelry companies selling via internet who focus on these Titanium alloys and call them "aircraft-grade" Titanium. In fact, the use of these alloys brings about greater difficulties in cutting, milling, sawing, and drilling.

Diamonds:
You have choosen the metal, not it's time to consider diamonds, more bling to your rings ;-) Classic diamond wedding ring is the eternity ring, composed of brilliant, round-cut diamonds in a channel or pavé setting. Want more creative? There are countless number of settings and designs. For example, you can choose an antique-inspired ring covered with over 100 little diamonds, or a three-tiered ring with five princess-cut diamonds. Not enough to match your taste? Add colored stones! Pick your favourite gem or your birthston and alternate if with diamonds to creace a truly unique and personalized look.

Wow, you've finished your task. No no no, don't ignore your groom. Help him to find a ring of his dream! Instead of plain platinum, gold, or titanium, the demand is for engraved patterns, such as scrollwork of filigree. And some young trendy grooms are starting to incorporate diamonds into their rings. Popular choice for grooms: a platinum band scattered with burnished-set diamonds (stones are set flush with the band instead of raised).
