Greetings from Keshett Jewellery!
The most popular choice of metal is the classic white or yellow gold. These days, most of the brides prefer Platinum for its sophisticated looks and durability.
Other metals include Titanium and palladium.
Hi,
Hi,
If your looking for a reasonably priced option as an everyday ring then tungsten is definitely a winner, followed closely by titanium.
Hello, the simplest answer is that Platinum jewellery is the most hard wearing, strong, and durable of the available precious metals. It does scratch easier than yellow gold (9/14/18k), and also easier than white gold (all alloys are rhodium plated - rhodium is a platinum group metal). Platinum jewellery will last a very long time, if it is made the same as a gold item in terms of size, it will outlast the gold items. I hope this helps.

And the great news is that Platinum is actually now slightly less expesive than 18ct gold and Palladium (which is another white metal), so it's a great option to go with if you are tossing up between 18ct white gold, palladium and platinum.
White gold rings are often rhodium plated to make the metal look lovely and white. This does wear off, so white gold rings, will need to be replated every couple of years. The plating may start to wear off at the bottom of the ring after the first 12 months, so platinum beautiful is a hard-wearing, low-maintenance option that you will be able to wear 24/7.
Good luck with your wedding planning.
