And do you really need both? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.birkatelyon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Birkat Elyon<\/a> offers high-quality cubic zirconia jewelry, and we have some answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, what\u2019s the real reason behind engagement rings? This piece is meant to serve as a promise to wed. It\u2019s usually more ornate than the wedding ring and is typically more expensive, with bigger stones. The good news is that you can get all that dazzle at a far more reasonable price by choosing a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.birkatelyon.com\/bridal\/engagement-rings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cubic zirconia engagement ring<\/a>; these quality stones are virtually indistinguishable from real diamonds or gemstones and are designed to last a lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the ceremony itself, wedding rings are exchanged between both the bride and groom. These bands are simpler in design, symbolizing a new, enduring bond between the couple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s perfectly acceptable for the bride to wear both her engagement ring and the wedding band together. In that case, the wedding ring should be seated at the bottom of the ring finger (where it will be closest to the heart). The engagement ring can then be stacked atop it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a growing trend for the bride to wear just one ring. In this case, the engagement ring serves as the wedding ring itself. It\u2019s purchased before the wedding but slipped on during the ceremony, not before. This allows the bride to wear something a bit fancier to symbolize her new married status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Birkat Elyon also offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.birkatelyon.com\/bridal\/wedding-ring-sets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dazzling CZ wedding ring sets<\/a> that make it simple to match an engagement ring and a wedding band for a beautiful look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you opt for one ring or two, these rings are a beautiful way to honor this exciting step in your relationship!<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For couples getting ready to take the next step, a beautiful cubic zirconia engagement ring or CZ wedding ring seals the deal. \u00a0But some may wonder, what\u2019s the difference?
