Wedding Planning in a Recession - Big Day, Smaller Budget


In these belt tightening times should you have to down-size your dream wedding? If you are going to be a little cost conscious where should you start? For many couples, and in particular, brides-to be, years may have been spent dreaming about their Big Day. Now the big question has been asked and accepted, and you may wondering whether you should be tightening those bridal purse strings. However, you can still have your dream wedding without going totally overboard with your finances. Try some of these less obvious budgetary constraints:

Engagement rings. No-one wants to look at their engagement ring and be constantly reminded of that economic down turn. Do you or your fiancee have any inherited jewels that you could utilize? Your Great Aunt Ruby's diamond ring may look a bit tired as it is, but pop the diamond in a new setting, and hey presto! Custom jewelers can create masterpieces for you out of your family stone. Well known jewelers such as Verragio and Tacori provide semi-mount engagement rings, so you can select a setting you absolutely love, and then have your own diamond set. This can be a very cost effective approach to having your dream engagement ring.

Wedding rings. If you love the look of platinum wedding rings, but would prefer a less expensive metal, then perhaps palladium wedding rings could be right for you. Palladium is from the same metal family as platinum, and like platinum it is naturally shiny and hypoallergenic. While palladium wedding rings will be a little more expensive than white gold, they will be substantially less costly than platinum. Best of all, palladium never needs to be rhodium plated to maintain the luster.

Unusual venues. You may be able to find a more cost effective wedding location than a traditional reception venue. Do you know anyone who has a fabulous cottage in the country, or by a beach or lake? Take the time to check the costs of various catering companies. You will be astounded at the price differences.

Limit the cast of thousands. Do you really need to invite your third cousin who you haven't ever seen? Or your father's bank manager? Stick to close family and friends. Striking a few people off the invite list will quickly pay for other costs such as flowers, cake, and the photographer. Explain to anyone who is miffed that you felt awkward displaying conspicuous consumption in these times.

Design My Own Engagement Ring Within Budget


The day you have been waiting for has finally arrived. He has asked and you have said yes. Now, unless you are lucky enough for money to be no object, you may discover that the engagement ring of your dreams and your budget are not in the same league. Never mind, when designing your own engagement ring, you may well be able to minimize some costs to still end up with the engagement ring you have your heart set on.

There are several ways in which you can reduce the cost of a custom made engagement ring:

* Metal. The metal that you select to have your ring crafted from can significantly impact on the final price. Platinum, while a hard wearing and high quality metal, can cost almost twice as much as the equivalent in gold. If you admire the platinum look you can always have your ring made up in white gold, and then have it rhodium plated for a similar appearance.

* Diamond size and quality. The price of a diamond is governed by these factors: the size, the cut, the clarity, and the color. By juggling around with these, you can dramatically alter the price tag. If you have your heart set on an enormous solitaire ring, does the diamond have to be internally flawless? Will you notice if it is not? A good custom jeweler should be able to position tiny flaws in the outer edges of your diamond under a claw or the setting. This sort of clever ring making can still produce the same visual result but with a much smaller price.

Sometimes just dropping down one color can significantly impact on the diamond price as well. If you have your heart set on a ring with plenty of bling you can alternatively have many smaller diamonds incorporated into the setting. Massed smaller diamonds will never cost the same as a single stone of the equivalent weight.

* The setting. Some settings can actually make your diamond appear bigger. By incorporating white gold or platinum around your diamond, the stone will look larger. A clever jeweler will be able to guide you in the right direction with this.

* Intricate working and engraving can make an engagement ring appear much more impressive. There are even some patterns that can be worked into settings and the shanks of the ring that can appear to be tiny diamonds, but aren't. These sorts of workings can add a lot of texture and visual appeal to an otherwise simple style of engagement ring.

By designing your own engagement ring you will be able to decide where you want any trade offs to be to keep your engagement ring within your budget. A great jeweler should be able to present you with various options on diamonds until you hit upon the stones that are going to work for your ring.

Companies like Tacori actually provide engagement rings made without a center stone, allowing you to select a diamond from within your budget to finish your engagement ring off.

Engagement Ring Designs for Every Budget


Having someone very special and loving in your life is a wonderful thing. Wanting to start a beautiful journey with them by offering a symbol of how you feel is one of the most important steps in many people's lives. Choosing one from all of the different engagement ring designs that can encompass those feelings may seem like a very difficult task, especially if you don't know exactly what's out there.

Whether you have a big budget or something more modest, there is sure to be an engagement ring that's perfect for the one you love. Before trying to find that special gem, learn about the engagement ring designs that are most commonly found today:

Classic

The classic engagement rings are perfect for anyone who would like to be more traditional. They are timeless designs that many believe symbolize the true spirit of everlasting love.

These designs are usually made with a simple band and one beautiful raised white diamond in the middle. Although the design seems simple enough, the variations in precious metals and diamond cuts certainly makes a different in look.

One other design that can be classified as classic would be a cathedral style ring. These rings look very much like the straight classic types but they also have the addition of an extra band to hold the ring in place. The diamonds are placed tapered and high up on the ring along with two curved bands. The cathedral style is also a flexible choice when it comes to customization.

Depending on the setting and carat of the diamond, the classic and cathedral style rings are a good choice for low to moderate budgets.

Artistic

Artistic engagement ring designs are a great choice for anyone who would love to have a unique ring. There are many different artistic rings designs to choose from since they are left to your imagination. Choose the band, precious metal, precious stone, cut and any other extra details.

Unique artistic rings are known to be different from the norm and have a special touch that only the couple can share together. If there are special meaningful symbols to represent love and connection, they can easily be incorporated into the ring design.

One example of the beauty and flexibility of artistic rings is a special flower themed ring that has flower shaped set of stones along with a band that has flower cut outs throughout. Certainly something that would appeal to those who love one of a kind of jewellery.

Depending on the design, stones, cuts and other artistic additions, these rings start at moderate prices and reach any price imaginable.

Majestic

The perfect choice for anyone with a limitless budget and a love for luxury, majestic engagement rings are show stoppers when it comes to sparkle and design. These ring styles will generally have large cut stones, elaborate designs and multiple settings paired with the top designer looks for rings.

Certainly far from minimalism, the luxury designs are made for show. The ring bands are usually wider than the more common engagement ring styles and offer the ability to combine different precious metals and precious stones for vibrant and unique look.

The luxury rings will commonly have pave stone settings paired along with several accent stones that will run along the top or even the sides of the band for that added sparkle.

The cost of majestic luxury rings start in the low thousands and can reach any limit imaginable.

Regardless of the cost of an engagement ring, it's important to remember the symbol it represents for a couple. While the ring will certainly make an impact when offered, it's the thought and love behind it that truly makes it beautiful.

Design My Own Engagement Ring Within Budget


The day you have been waiting for has finally arrived. He has asked and you have said yes. Now, unless you are lucky enough for money to be no object, you may discover that the engagement ring of your dreams and your budget are not in the same league. Never mind, when designing your own engagement ring, you may well be able to minimize some costs to still end up with the engagement ring you have your heart set on.

There are several ways in which you can reduce the cost of a custom made engagement ring:

* Metal. The metal that you select to have your ring crafted from can significantly impact on the final price. Platinum, while a hard wearing and high quality metal, can cost almost twice as much as the equivalent in gold. If you admire the platinum look you can always have your ring made up in white gold, and then have it rhodium plated for a similar appearance.

* Diamond size and quality. The price of a diamond is governed by these factors: the size, the cut, the clarity, and the color. By juggling around with these, you can dramatically alter the price tag. If you have your heart set on an enormous solitaire ring, does the diamond have to be internally flawless? Will you notice if it is not? A good custom jeweler should be able to position tiny flaws in the outer edges of your diamond under a claw or the setting. This sort of clever ring making can still produce the same visual result but with a much smaller price.

Sometimes just dropping down one color can significantly impact on the diamond price as well. If you have your heart set on a ring with plenty of bling you can alternatively have many smaller diamonds incorporated into the setting. Massed smaller diamonds will never cost the same as a single stone of the equivalent weight.

* The setting. Some settings can actually make your diamond appear bigger. By incorporating white gold or platinum around your diamond, the stone will look larger. A clever jeweler will be able to guide you in the right direction with this.

* Intricate working and engraving can make an engagement ring appear much more impressive. There are even some patterns that can be worked into settings and the shanks of the ring that can appear to be tiny diamonds, but aren't. These sorts of workings can add a lot of texture and visual appeal to an otherwise simple style of engagement ring.

By designing your own engagement ring you will be able to decide where you want any trade offs to be to keep your engagement ring within your budget. A great jeweler should be able to present you with various options on diamonds until you hit upon the stones that are going to work for your ring.

Companies like Tacori actually provide engagement rings made without a center stone, allowing you to select a diamond from within your budget to finish your engagement ring off.
