Wedding Rings & Bands

There is no rule as to how much you should spend on your wedding rings, and the cost of your rings will depend on your personal budget and design preferences.

In either platinum or 18K gold, plain, thin wedding rings start at around £350. Diamond set wedding rings start around £1,350 but can cost over £6,300 for an eternity style ring with large diamonds.

Read our blog How Much Should I Spend on my Wedding Rings for more insight into how much wedding rings cost, what makes some more expensive, and how you could tweak designs to suit your personal budget. Ultimately, how much you budget for your rings is a very personal decision.

Traditionally, each member of the couple pays for their other half’s ring - but this isn’t all that common anymore. Couples often split the cost of their rings evenly, or pay for their own ring.

It’s recommended you buy your wedding rings around 3 months before your wedding. At Queensmith, our wedding rings typically take 4 weeks to craft. Having your first appointment way ahead of your wedding will allow time for decision making and ensures you can collect or receive your rings with plenty of time to go, to avoid last minute rushes.

Matching your wedding ring to your engagement ring can be a beautiful way to create a cohesive, stylised wedding ring set. You may want to consider matching details like the width of the band, and the setting style, whether that’s scallop, pavé, channel rubover.

Solitaire engagement rings with plain bands can also look beautiful with the addition of a diamond set band, to add sparkle to the ring set. Book an appointment now to find the best wedding rings for you.

At Queensmith, we offer a service to match the profile of your wedding ring to your engagement ring. This means the two rings will fit snug together, seamlessly flush. Some engagement ring designs may require a shaped wedding ring to achieve a flush set, however most Queensmith engagement ring designs are created ‘wedfriendly’ or ‘wedfit’, meaning a straight, traditional wedding ring can fit together perfectly with the engagement ring.

Whether your engagement ring was purchased with Queensmith or elsewhere, we'll work with your engagement ring to ensure a set that fits beautifully together - book an appointment to create your flush wedding ring set.

Whilst engagement rings are often bought as surprises, wedding rings are typically chosen by the wearer. Couples usually have their wedding ring appointments together, and chip in to advise on their partner’s design as well as their own, but ultimately it is common to choose your own wedding ring.

While couples typically attend their wedding ring consultations together, very few couples choose to create completely matching wedding rings.
