Past present and future ring

Traditionally when a man asked a woman for her hand in marriage, he’d give her a solitaire diamond engagement ring. Today, the question is still the same, but the ring style can vary greatly. One new and innovative design that many couples are opting for is a . Some women and men feel this type of ring better captures the sentiment they are feeling as they take the next step in their life together.

Most jewelry stores have a nice selection of these rings which feature three stones. Typically the middle stone in a past present and future ring is slightly larger than the other two stones, which sit on either side of it. The top choice for the type of gemstones is diamonds, but the sky is really the limit when it comes to what stones are in the ring. Some brides are trying a new approach when they decide on a past present and future ring and want their soon to be husband’s birthstone to take center place on the ring.

Although these rings are becoming more commonplace with each passing year, many couples are still feeling the need to have matching wedding bands. A nice feature about a past present and future ring is that it can be easily paired with almost any wedding band. Whether the wedding band is a simple gold or silver design or if it’s adorned with diamonds, it will look perfect when sitting next to the past present and future ring on the bride’s finger.

Those brides who are past the newlywed stage may feel they missed the opportunity to have a ring like this. That’s certainly not the case as many married men are finding it a nice idea and loving gesture to present their wife with a past present and future ring on the occasion of their anniversary.

The three stones still hold the same meaning and for a couple celebrating a monumental anniversary, perhaps a tenth or twentieth, a past present and future ring is a very appropriate symbol of their continued commitment to one another.

Choosing one is best left for the man and woman to do together, unless the man has insight into the type of jewelry his lady love enjoys. More and more women prefer the look of silver or platinum over gold for a band choice, and a past present and future ring can easily be designed out of any of these precious metals. Once the ring is in its rightful place on the finger of the woman it was chosen for, it will likely remain there for many years to come.
