Wedding Rings for Ladies

Weddings rings can be traced as far back to the Egyptians, who regarded wedding rings as a symbol of eternal love, and were made from organic materials. It is the Egyptians who first wore weddings on the ring finger of their left hand. The reason, is because this finger has a vein that runs to the heart. Many still follow this tradition today.

Today, wedding rings are made from precious metals - gold, silver and platinum. But this trend started in ancient Rome and Greece, where rings were made with gold and precious stones. It was the Catholic church in the 12th century in Europe that started to use rings in marriage ceremonies, and this tradition spread throughout the world as most religions and cultures celebrate the union of two people with rings.

There is a wide choice of wedding ring styles for women from simple metal bands to diamond and gemstone encrusted ones. Whatever your preference is, there is something out there for you.
