When referring to
gold wedding rings, the Jewish tradition states that the groom should sanctify the bride with a simple round ring, bought with his own money. When acquiring the ring two witnesses should be present with the future husband, confirming that the wedding ring was bought only with the husband's money and it was paid in full.
Jewish wedding rings should be made of one material (yellow or white gold or silver) without mixing materials. In addition, it should be clean of any precious stones or diamonds. According to the Jewish sources, the reason for this is so the bride will not be stunned by the beauty of the ring, making its beauty the main issue. Rather, the main objective should always be the act of the marriage.
