Wedding jewelry featuring Moissanite for the Happy Bride
There are so many options when it comes to wedding jewelry, but you really can’t go wrong with Moissanite. It has all the qualities of diamonds but without the hefty price tag. Moissanite doesn’t require any special care or maintenance, and even if you get it wet, it won’t chip or crack! Here are some tip s for choosing the perfect moissanite wedding band to wear on your big day and beyond.
Getting Clear on What’s Important
Knowing what you want in a moissanite bridal set is important. Do you want something big and sparkly, or something understated? Will it be worn every day, or just on occasion? Are diamonds your thing or do you have some other type of stone that means more to you? Take time early on in planning your moissanite wedding bands and engagement ring (or bridal jewelry) to talk about these things so that later down the road when buying a bridal set it will be easier. Once you’ve gotten clear on what’s important for your own ring, it will be much easier for you to search for a style that fits both what your fiancé wants and what works for you.
Getting Creative with Ring Shapes
There are many shapes and styles available when it comes to wedding rings. You can get creative with your shape, or choose a traditional style like a diamond solitaire. Choosing moissanite for your jewelry is a great way to customize your wedding set and make it uniquely yours. One of our most popular selections is moissanite bridal set in classic round cut, that feature each band as its own shank—creating an elegant and stylish look you’ll love wearing every day after your big day.
Know The Difference Between Lab Created and Natural Moissanite
When it comes to understanding moissanite, there are three main things that you need to know: color, cut and clarity. One of the biggest differences between natural and lab created moissanite is in their color. Natural moissanites have a yellow or brown tint, whereas lab created is a D-E color rating on a diamond scale (where D means colorless). Lab created moissanites also tend to be more brilliant when compared to natural versions and are available in a wide range of colors including pink, green and blue. They’re also available in round cuts and emerald cuts rather than only rounds as they are with natural gems.
Pick Your Focal Gemstone
When shopping for wedding jewelry, it’s important to think of your pieces as a whole. The focal gemstone—the center stone of a ring or pendant—is often considered an engagement ring. Choosing an accompanying gemstone is as much about style as it is about symbolism; many brides opt for moissanite, which looks very similar to diamonds in terms of sparkle and brilliance. A moissanite bridal set or Moissanite Diamond Jewelry is guaranteed to complement your engagement ring beautifully. Moissanites are also extremely durable and scratch-resistant, making them perfect for everyday wear. They can even be cleaned with a variety of household items, from soap and water to toothpaste!
Choose Metal Based On Your Skin Type
Before buying your moissanite bracelet, check that you can see into it. The inclusions should be easy to spot without any effort. Also make sure there are no distortions, such as cracks or lines. The design of some rings makes it hard to tell if they’re real or not, so look carefully at all angles and view them in different lights. If you find a ring that looks great, but you’re unsure about its clarity level, ask your jeweler if they can take another look before making a decision. Don’t forget to check out our wedding page!

Check The Clarity Of The Ring
Be sure to check out how clear or cloudy a diamond is. Diamonds that are in lower clarity range might appear white, but they’re usually brown, gray or yellow-ish in color. Even if you’re a believer that love can shine through anything, for most of us, we’d prefer a clean diamond with little blemishes and other imperfections. The higher levels of clarity will allow more light to pass through your ring, which gives it its brilliance and sparkle. For example, make sure you choose a moissanite bracelet with high clarity so you’ll get as much light reflected off its surface as possible. Additionally, look at what shape diamonds come in because each shape reflects light differently (e.g., square-cut diamonds produce more candlelight than round ones).
Understand the Four C’s of Diamond Grading
Before you start shopping for a wedding band, take some time to educate yourself on diamond grading. Diamonds aren’t all created equal, so it’s important to understand what you’re looking at. The four C’s—color, clarity, cut and carat weight—are terms used in grading diamonds. Each C refers to different characteristics of a stone that affect its beauty and price. Below is a quick breakdown of each term.
