With gold over $900 per ounce, wedding rings can be pretty expensive! Here’s a wedding ring idea that will not only save you money it also saves the environment!
It’s been a while since I wrote a green wedding post so I was glad I came across this info to pass on. I wrote a post a while ago about how much gold mining can impact the environment and some unique wedding rings that had minimal impact on the environment. I recommend you check it out. Now here’s some info on another great option!
Ecological jeweler GreenKarat.com has a jewelry recycling and registry program that allows you to turn in old unused gold jewelry and they also allow other people to turn in old unused gold jewelry in your name that can be credited to you! The old jewelry can then melted and made into your rings or you can get a credit based on the weight for new rings.
This not only can get you free wedding rings they can also have extra meaning made up of old jewelry your family donates for you.
If you choose to go the “gift registry” route you can get you own registry page with instructions for your friends and family to donate. Here’s an example registry page.
For more information go to GreenKarat.com.
