How times change. Thirty years ago, selecting a wedding band was a simple choice. You could have gold (white or yellow), and maybe choose a pattern and some diamonds. Today, however, is another story all together. Tungsten, cobalt chrome, platinum, titanium, and palladium have all been added into the mix. So, how do I pick the metal that is right for me, you might ask? It's not as hard as you might think. An examination of the properties and pricing of the metals should clear up, or at the very least, narrow your choices down a bit. There are two basic groupings of metals used in wedding bands; precious and alternative. Precious refers to valuable metals such as gold, platinum, and palladium. Alternative is everything else. That was easy, right? Now for the slightly harder part: looking at what each of these metals has to offer. We will start with the precious metals. ...Read more » -

Happy Fall wedding season! If you’re anything like me, you love the glamor and fun-filled adventure of being a bridesmaid in the weddings of some of your closest loved ones.

Photo courtesy of Nadra Photography You’re engaged, congratulations! In the midst of all of your planning and excitement, though, you may be letting one crucial step fall to the wayside: insuring your ring. Traditionally, the person who bought the ring is responsible for getting it insured, but in most cases, it comes down to just doing what’s best for you and your partner, so don’t dwell on this part too much. There are a couple different types of insurance that you can get on an engagement ring. The first is a jeweler sponsored care plan. At Day’s Jewelers, we use Jewelers Mutual, or, JM Care Plans. The second type of insurance typically available to your fine jewelry is attaching the ring to your homeowners or renters insurance. There are a few different ways to do this, if you choose to go this route. ...Read more » -
