I love the saying ‘Vena Amoris’. It means - Vein of Love !!

I make wedding bands for you, however you would like them. Traditionally wedding bands are a plain band made from precious metal but these days you can have what you would like if you so choose.
My main thoughts are have what you want. Do you want to match your spouse, would you like to incorporate old gold and gemstones from existing jewellery, would you like a gemstone ring or you may even want something completely different. is it important to you to have links to Cornwall?
Whatever you desire I can help guide you.
I have put together this blog to help guide you through the process when choosing your perfect wedding ring.
Start with your budget: Set a budget for your wedding band, so you can narrow down your choices and avoid overspending.
Consider your personal style: Look at your personal style and choose a wedding band that reflects your personality. Do you prefer a simple, classic design or something more intricate?
Choose the right metal: The metal you choose for your wedding band is important. Consider factors such as durability, colour, and price. Popular options include gold, platinum, and silver. Do you have some existing gold you would like to add to your wedding band. Read my blog on metal choices here for more guidance on this.
Think about the width: The width of your wedding band will affect how it looks on your finger. Consider the size of your hands and fingers when choosing the width of your band.
Consider the setting: If you plan to wear your wedding band with an engagement ring, consider how they will look together. You may want to choose a band that complements your engagement ring.
Do you want gemstones: Gemstone wedding rings are becoming increasingly popular. Do you have existing jewellery with gemstones in you would like to incorporate, Are the gemstones that have significant sentimental value you’d like to add, like birtstones
Think long-term: Your wedding band is a symbol of your commitment, so choose a band that you will be happy to wear for many years to come.
