What factors determine the price of an engagement ring and wedding band?
When choosing a ring that will be worn on your finger for a lifetime, you should opt for precious metals of the highest quality that do not tarnish, cause skin irritation and can withstand the adversities of everyday life for decades.
The larger the ring, the thicker and wider the ring band, the more precious metal has to be used, which increases the price accordingly.
Should the engagement ring cost more than the wedding ring?
Thus, the wedding ring usually costs less than the engagement ring with one or more diamonds. However, this does not mean that the engagement ring automatically has to be more expensive than the wedding ring. There are no binding rules. You and your partner should be free to decide what budget to invest in which ring. How many carats the engagement ring should have depends entirely on your own financial circumstances and preferences.
