If you are looking for a platinum 18k gold engraved wedding ring there are some points to keep in mind.

Browsing on line is probably the easiest way of finding a platinum 18k gold engraved wedding ring as there is so much to choose from. You do need to do some due diligence however and ensure that the dealers or jewelers have a fixed address and are contactable by phone.

You can pay a lot of money for a platinum 18k gold engraved wedding ring so want to be sure you are dealing with a bona fide jeweler. Also do they have a returns policy? Sometimes when you get the ring home it looks nothing like the picture on the screen. The platinum looks dull (is it really platinum? ??? real platinum is very shiny) and the gold, how do you know it is 18k and not 14 or even 10 karat? A certificate of authenticity to avoid any later disappointment is a must and if a jeweler will not supply it then there are plenty of other jewelers out there who will.

Before you have it engraved decide before hand exactly what you want engraved on it. Try to keep it very simple and straight forward. A few simple words can say much more than a long involved speech. Sometimes the jeweler will engrave it for nothing, or rather include it in the price, so ensure you write out for him (or preferably type out) what you want engraved and where you want it engraved on the ring.

When browsing take your time. This is a ring you will be buying for a lifetime so a hurried choice may be regretted later. It is a good idea to know what you want and visualize it in your mind before you go out to buy. Then you will look only what you want and unlikely to be sold the first ring that the jeweler offers you.

Shopping for a platinum 18k gold engraved wedding ring can be an exciting experience provided a little common sense is used!
