Please forgive me if this has been discussed before. I'm not sure if this exact question has been asked and in any case- I'm interested in what this group has to say about it currently.
I'm trying to decided between 18kt yellow gold or platinum for a wedding band.
To me, 18kt yellow gold is more traditional for a wedding band, it stays shiny, it is easy to take care of, it is pretty heavy, and it is very inexpensive.
Platinum is even heavier than 18kt yellow gold, is more in style (I guess) and is very beautiful (at least before it gets scratched and I have to find a jeweler to take care of it) and it does not lose metal through scratching.
Especially considering in the ring I have decided on, 18kt is 2/5 of the price, and that I think it is more traditional, I think that's what I want.
What would you want, and why? Thanks.
