Celtic Wedding Rings of Love

There is nothing more beautiful than two people celebrating their love through marriage. And a lot of couples choose Celtic wedding rings to solidify that love. They believe not only in its beauty but the symbolic meanings behind each design.

Celtic wedding rings are available in platinum, white gold, yellow gold and silver. Although the most expensive, many marrying couples prefer the platinum ring because it is the most durable. For those who can't afford platinum rings, white gold and yellow gold are the next best choice. They're not as expensive, and they're the next most durable ring. If budget is a bit tight, silver rings are the ones to choose. Don't worry, though, designs are not sacrificed and it will still be beautiful.

Marrying couples can also opt to have gemstones with their Celtic wedding rings. Diamonds, rubies and emeralds add more beauty to an already beautiful ring. These gemstones can be used in several ways, including as studs on the band of the ring or as one ring in the center.

When it comes to the design, there are many to choose from for Celtic wedding rings. And it usually differs with the knots used. Circular knots usually mean eternity and a life forever with each other. These are the most popular designs marrying couples choose for their rings. There are also angular knots available, and these rings symbolize stability and foundation.

Most knots represent life, mankind and even spirituality. Square knots, or shield knots, are meant to ward off evil spirits or bad intentions. Spirals signify rebirth or life cycles. The presence of man or animals on a Celtic wedding ring represents the relationship between man and nature or man and man.

Some favorite designs and knots for Celtic wedding rings include the Eternity Knot, the Trinity Knot, the Lover's Knot and Triskele. The Eternity Knot is any knot that has a closed path with no definite beginning and end. It symbolizes eternal life.

The Trinity Knot is a knot with three points connected into a triangle. Catholic and Celtic beliefs merged with the Trinity Knot. The knot represents the Holy Trinity, according to Catholic beliefs, and the Triple Gods and Goddesses of the Celtic belief. It symbolizes spiritual growth, eternal life and a love that never ends.

The Lover's Knot is any knot that connects what would otherwise be separate paths. The Josephine Knot, or Granny's Knot, can be considered a Lover's Knot. The Triskele has three interlocking spirals. These spirals could represent many things, including fertility, the phases of the moon, reincarnation and creation, preservation and destruction. The Triskele design is located at the center and surrounded with the couple's initials. It can also be seen as a symbol of commitment and eternity.

There are so many designs to choose for a Celtic wedding ring. The infinity band is a popular choice as it represents eternal and never-ending love for each other's partner. It has no beginning and no end and is available in silver, white gold, yellow gold and platinum. Its simple design also makes it an inexpensive choice, especially for the ones with a tight budget.

The Trinity Knot symbolizes perfection because it represents the Holy Trinity or the Triple Gods and Goddesses of the Celts. These rings can be dressed up with gold trims or be made as an inset ring to allow for resizing. The Trinity Knots can be placed all around the band or one by one around the band. The Celtic Knot has no beginning and no end and can be dressed up in a lot of ways. You can add yellow gold or white gold trim, add squares in between the knots or have the knots wrap around the entire band.

Who would have thought picking out Celtic wedding rings would require you to make so many choices? Still, it is worth the effort because it symbolizes a partnership and a lifelong commitment. So choosing the knot is important, and if it surrounds the entire band and has gold trims it will serve as a constant reminder of a couple's love for one another.
