As temperatures around the country drop, and summer gives way to fall and winter, the traditional wedding season comes to a close. However, recent trends suggest cold weather and fall may no longer signal the end to the wedding season. Instead, a larger number of couples are wisely willing to schedule their weddings beyond the traditional months, thus broadening the wedding season. And as more couples are looking to the alternative season to plan their wedding, alternative metals like tungsten wedding bands are also becoming more popular with men and women.

A broader wedding season does have its benefits. Summer and spring months will continue to remain popular due to the beautiful weather their seasons provide, but wedding planners and experts say scheduling during formerly “off months” has its perks. Wedding planners will tell you venues are much more available through the months of October to February, and many of them offer discounts during these months as well. As leaves change from green to oranges, reds and browns, so have people’s taste preferences. Fall color schemes are definitely in, and provide a great wedding backdrop.

The tungsten experts at Tungsten World have been closely following the broadening of the wedding season. With their wide selection of tungsten wedding bands and tungsten jewelry, Tungsten World is running special discounts throughout the fall and winter wedding seasons. Boasting the best selection and already great prices on men’s and women’s tungsten wedding bands, couples scheduling their wedding during this time of year will continue reaping “off season” benefits by shopping TungstenWorld.com.

There’s a simple beauty to be found in purchasing a tungsten carbide ring, inlaid with your favorite precious metal to provide you with the color and pizzazz you might want in your jewelry. Tungsten, a relatively new option in the jewelry making industry, has many benefits that will leave you completely satisfied with your purchase, including:

1. Versatility. Diamond-tipped tools, like the ones that are used to initially shape the tungsten ring in the first place, cut stylistic grooves into the ring and another substance can be placed within the groove to add flair to the tungsten ring. Precious metals such as gold, silver and platinum inlayed within a tungsten carbide ring is a perfect combination of beauty and strength.

2. Durability. Tungsten is four times harder than titanium. A tungsten ring is virtually indestructible and manufacturers stand by that fact by offering a lifetime guarantee against bending, scratching or tarnishing.

3. Luxurious Feel. Tungsten rings give you that smooth yet heavy feel you’re looking for when you want something that you know will last a long time and not be easily misplaced. The smooth, heavy feel of a tungsten carbide ring is both luxurious and unforgettable.

4. Hypoallergenic. The problem with a lot of precious metals is that you might be allergic to everything but the purest form of them, which means if you want a ring, bracelet or necklace you can wear daily, you need to shell out more money to make sure your body won’t reject the compound. Tungsten carbide rings sidestep this issue because they’re hypoallergenic at the core and won’t give you any surprise allergic reactions. Make sure you purchase the pure tungsten rings that aren’t mixed with cobalt as the cheaper compound can cause a reaction.

With this much to look forward to in a tungsten carbide ring of your choice, get your hands on a tungsten ring now and see what the hype is all about.

Black Tungsten RingI don’t usually associate male jewelry with being “badass” but when you’ve reached a certain milestone in your life, you might have to rock that ring ‘til death do you part. A close friend of mine, soon to be hitched, excitedly showed me a link to a black tungsten ring that really almost makes it okay for you to be wearing a ring 24/7, regardless of your marital status.

The name “tungsten” comes from the Nordic tung sten, literally translated as ‘heavy stone’. Of all metals in their pure form, tungsten has the highest melting point and highest tensile strength. In a nutshell, that means tungsten is one of the toughest materials around. The black tungsten ring then becomes a bauble representative of violent beauty, a trinket symbolic of the progress of man through the taming and beautification of one of the most stubborn elements around. You can clearly see the workmanship put into the ring in its midnight polish, perfect curve and balanced weight.

The black tungsten ring certainly does make a lasting impression. It stands out head and shoulders above your typical, run-of-the-mill wedding band. If you’re willing to deviate from the traditional route, give tungsten a chance. I’ll bet that when you’ve seen and felt the ring in person, you won’t be having any second thoughts.
