Wat kost een trouwring?

The costs of a wedding ring vary depending on various factors, such as the material, the design and any gems or engravings. Golden wedding rings, such as yellow gold, white gold and rose gold, are often more expensive than silver variants because of their durability and luxurious appearance. Details such as diamonds, personal engravings or a unique design can also influence the price. That is why it is wise to determine a budget in advance and to explore the possibilities that fit within your wishes.

Practical tips
