Budget Wedding Jewellery

Engagement rings

The engagement ring is one of the most important purchases that will be made. Tradition says the groom should spend a month’s wages and must present the ring when popping the question.

Traditions fade and it is becoming more and more popular to go engagement ring shopping together, taking the pressure off choosing something without the bride's approval. A new trend is purchasing the diamond and proposing with this before going to have the ring designed and made together.

Wedding rings

You will probably wear your wedding ring every day for the rest of your life. The wedding ring is very personal and meaningful, you will never want to take it off.

You can have matching his and hers wedding bands, have one that matches the engagement ring or even have them engraved.

The best man should look after the wedding rings until the exchanging of the rings during the ceremony. Some couples choose to have a ring bearer or a wedding ring cushion as an alternative.

Wedding Jewellery

The engagement ring and wedding bands are not the only items that need to be purchased. You may want a few pieces to wear on the day, for example, a necklace and earrings. To help your budget, see if there is anything sentimental you already own that could be worn or borrow from a friend or relative.

Your bridesmaids may also require jewellery for their look, think about purchasing something as their wedding thank you gift and combine the two.

Tiaras and hair accessories

Another way to add some glitz and glamour to your look is with a tiara or hair accessory to wear with your veil for the reception. These can be bought from both jewellers and bridal boutiques.
