Gold Wedding Rings

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.


Usually people purchase Gold wedding rings made of yellow gold, yet the white gold is growing in popularity these past years. Another popular option is to personally design individual rings to the bride and the groom, so the couple has unique rings, making them a one of a kind couple. The main advantage of this is the quality of the product. The quality of a handmade gold ring is sometimes better than gold made by machine process, a significant difference usually found after many years of use.

Jewish wedding rings can be decorated with diamonds and precious stones after the wedding ceremony. Also, due to the growing demand over the past years for groom's rings, many such rings are designed mostly from white gold or platinum.

So if you are getting married, one of the first things that are recommended is purchasing those fantastic Gold wedding rings you will G-d willing wear for many happy years to come.
