Whether you’re shopping for an engagement ring, wedding band, or a gift to mark the occasion, jewelry reflects the style and meaning behind your celebration. At Rick Terry Jewelry Designs, every piece is made with thought and care, and we’ve seen firsthand what brides are loving right now.

What Brides Want This Season
This year, custom engagement rings are still a favorite. More couples are moving away from mass-produced designs and choosing something unique. Whether it’s a vintage-inspired setting or a modern take with mixed metals, personal touches are what make the difference.
Another trend we’re seeing is the rise of stackable wedding bands. Instead of just one band, many brides are layering two or three slim rings for a look that grows with their story. These bands can be mixed and matched with different stones, finishes, or engravings to reflect each chapter of life.
Custom Designs With Meaning
More couples are looking for jewelry that tells their story. A band made from a grandmother’s ring or a stone passed down from a family member adds sentimental value to the piece. At Rick Terry Jewelry Designs, we offer custom work that includes repurposing heirloom materials. Learn more about how we handle custom design here.
Color Is In
While diamonds remain classic, brides are exploring colored gemstones for both engagement rings and wedding bands. Sapphires, emeralds, and even black diamonds are giving rings a bold and personal twist. Not only do they make a statement, but many colored stones hold symbolic meaning for the couple.
Jewelry for the Whole Day
Bridal jewelry doesn’t stop with the ring. Think about the earrings, bracelet, or pendant you’ll wear on the day itself. This is a great opportunity to tie in a family piece or invest in something new that can be worn again and again. Many of our brides opt for custom sets to complete their wedding-day look.
We also help grooms choose personalized gifts for their partner, something they can surprise them with on the wedding morning. A handcrafted necklace or bracelet with a hidden engraving is always a thoughtful touch.
Quality That Lasts
When it comes to wedding jewelry, durability matters. You’ll wear these pieces for life, and they need to be crafted to last. Our clients trust us because we stand behind the quality of our work. From prong checks to polishing and repairs, our maintenance plan gives you peace of mind long after the big day.
