Quote:
I don't like gold (the yellow colour, I mean) and I was told that white gold was too soft for wedding rings, so the wife and I opted for platinum wedding rings, because I wanted something shinier (and heavier) than titanium.

I hear you on the weight thing: the boy Fiennes's wedding-ring is titanium, and, while it certainly looks the part, when he handed it to me so I could feel the weight, I suddenly stopped thinking "wedding-ring" and started thinking "ring-pull". So if people do go for titanium ones, I recommend adopting the whole "No, nasssty hobbitses can't hold it, mine! my own!" sort of attitude.
