With the cost of the average UK wedding now more than 20
,000 its no surprises that couples to be are looking to make savings and buying cheap wedding rings may be the best way to save money but without compromising on quality. Here are some helpful hints
1.Look but dont buy
Shopping for a ring is one of the traditions for every couple to be, and even when looking to reduce the cost of the ring couples can still do this. A trip to the High Street jewellers will give them a good idea of the type and style of rings available. It will help them decide what style of ring they like and the correct ring size. But the trip will also confirm that buying on the High Street is the most expensive way to buy anything including a wedding ring. After your days shopping make your next visit an online wedding ring specialist .
2.Not just any online wedding ring specialist
Youll be a long way to buying the right cheap wedding rings, but not all online retailers are the same. Youll want to reduce the price, not the quality of the ring. So check what quality assurance the website offers. How long has the company been selling wedding rings? Are the rings made in the UK? Is the precious metal properly hallmarked?
3.Returns and Warranty
Again, buying cheap wedding rings is all well and good but what if you are not satisfied, or of the ring becomes damaged or out of shape. Again the website will list any customer service warranties or guarantees. A general rule is the more clearly you can see these, the happier the company will be to honour their commitments. If the Returns and Warranty is hidden in the digital small print this may be a cause for concern.
4.Buy in plenty of time
Dont leave buying your ring until the last moment even if you are undecided on style you want. Buying anything in a panic is never a good strategy and certainly not for an item you will wear for the rest of your life. Start looking early on, peruse the choices on the chosen website and order in plenty of time: you wont run the risk of your favourite going out of stock and you will have plenty of time to return if not 100% satisfied.
