Cobalt wedding bands are a durable, lightweight, and affordable option for men. Matching wedding bands add another element of romance to your wedding.

5. Timing

This is the most important thing that you have to beware of. From our experience here at Skatell’s Jewelers, couples usually spend too much time on selecting the style and once they confirm the rings, they found that their size are not available. Re-sizing or new production would be needed in that case. In normal, at least 2 weeks for re-sizing and 4-6 weeks should be expected for a new production. Therefore, start to source your wedding bands and confirm the order earlier as possible
