Rehearsing Your Wedding Vows
Filed Under Wedding Vows | Leave a Comment
We may not have it altogether, but together we have it all
Rehearsing your wedding vows will help relax you during the actual ceremony. You are more than likely going to have a few nervous moments (butterflies of love perhaps!), and this is perfectly normal. Standing in front of family and friends with all your excitement and happiness beaming through your smile, it is possible that a moment of mental fatigue will steal your next lines from your mouth and leave you gasping for air.
Fear not! Instead, make sure you have set aside some time to practise your lines and speeches. You do not have to commit them to memory, however having them reinforced in your mind a few times over will allow you a little self confidence in times of doubt and will also give you a little more confidence when you are facing your partner committing your eternal love and devotion to each other.
Remember to photocopy your vows and give them to a close and trusted friend to hold (in case the unheard of happens and you lose your original copy or the marriage celebrant forgets to bring their copy).
Good luck!

Hand Crafted Wedding Bands
Filed Under Wedding Ring | Leave a Comment
Today, millions of products are machine made. That includes many fine wedding bands. There is often some input by a superb craftsman to select and set a stone, for example. But much of the process is carried out by highly sophisticated systems.
But there remains no more sophisticated system than the skill in the mind, eye and hands of a master jewelry maker. That skill is much the same as it was centuries ago, but now brought to new heights with modern tools. Yet the careful focus, the precise direction and other attributes of the craftsman are still the essential elements.
That craft, handed down generation after generation, may be less visible today. But it is still just as vital to making a fine wedding band as it ever was. The most sophisticated computer programs can barely begin to simulate even elementary human movements. And none come anywhere close to duplicating the creativity of expert jewelery makers.
Those skills are nowhere more evident than in the hand crafted wedding bands that are available today. For those looking for a truly unique engagement ring or wedding band, one that will never be found anywhere else, a hand crafted ring is your guarantee.
Imagine the delicate, complex scrollwork evident on a classic white gold band. The master’s hand is everywhere evident. The unique swirls, the individual petals and other touches could only have been created by that unique person. At the same time the level of skill is so high, that it might seem as if the ring was made by machine. That’s the mark of a true expert.
Picture a titanium ring in a contemporary design. The subtle sheen is the result of the master’s attention to detail. The dark cable running down the center was selected by careful thought with an eye to the design of the whole. This two-tone masterpiece could only have been made by a single person striving to create their best work just for you.
An 18kt yellow gold comfort fit band sports a delicate wave of rose gold down the center. Asymmetrically at one top corner is a small round-cut diamond. It was cut by the hand of one who has trained for decades to acquire the needed skill. It was mounted with equal care and attention to this unique creation.
A braided tri-color band shows clearly the hand of the artist. The design could only have been conceived by someone concentrating on the task at hand. It could only have been executed once. To create the same ring over again would violate the canon of artistic principles.
The result in each case is a one-of-a-kind work of art to be displayed as proudly on the hand as a fine sculpture is on the table. Consider a hand crafted wedding band and obtain that piece that lifts the soul of the wearer as it did the artist.
