The solitaire ring is rising in popularity

Wedding ring

What do Kourtney Kardashian, Hayley Bieber and Britney Spears all have in common aside from masses of Instagram followers? Each one of these stars has been spotted sporting solitaire diamond engagement rings. The style, which has doubled in sales at ROX over the past 12 months, is a popular choice as the style shows the diamond to its full potential, throwing light into it for superior sparkle.

So, whether you’re looking to replace a temporary engagement ring or you’d like to congratulate yourself for being bang on trend, you may want to take note!

The term “oval solitaire engagement ring” has seen a 50 per cent increase in searches over the last year. Like Kourtney Kardashian’s swoon-worthy piece, the ROX Honour Oval Cut Diamond Ring in platinum (from £2,295) will also make a showstopping statement.

ROX Love Brilliant Cut Diamond Ring (from £2,750) set in platinum with 14 brilliant cut diamonds on each shoulder is the ideal choice for those who like to stand out from the crowd.

More women are opting for yellow gold bands with a white diamond. While these have a vintage feel, you only have to look at the likes of Emily Ratajkowski and Meghan Markle to know that gold has timeless appeal. Check out ROX’s Honour Oval Solitaire Diamond Ring in yellow gold (from £2,060).

Princess Eugenie, Jennifer Lopez and Victoria Beckham have all worn dazzling pink stoned engagement rings and ROX Honour Pink Sapphire Diamond Ring in platinum (£17,995) is the perfect choice for an ultra-feminine bride who likes to buck tradition.

You can find your nearest ROX showroom on St Peter’s Lane in Liverpool. Check out www.rox.co.uk

Couples could legally get married anywhere - legal comment

The UK Government has unveiled a new consultation to reform the wedding laws in England and Wales which is exploring how wedding ceremonies are conducted, particularly looking at wedding venues. The proposals are seeking to modernise the outdated legislation in this area which will eventually provide couples with greater freedom to decide where and how they will get married. At present, when a couple gets married, they need to have their legal ceremony in a licensed building or a registered place of worship. The existing laws have a further requirement that couples must ensure the individual officiating their wedding ceremony is either an authorised religious minister or a civil registrar.

For those closest to them, Brits consider an average of £77 per person to be an acceptable wedding gift.
