(ContentDesk) March 14, 2004--"A beautifully crafted business."Launched at the end of 2003 by former stylist and model, Olivier Laudus, WeddingRingCushions offers luxury handmade wedding ring cushions. Wedding ring cushions (or ring bearer pillows as they are known in the United States) are traditionally held by young children and carried up the aisle. The rings secured on the ring cushion will normally not be the actual wedding rings and instead the process is a symbolic one. On the Continent it is more common to see the wedding ring cushion being used as part of the actual ring exchanging ceremony, while in the United Kingdom, it is traditionally the best man who keeps the rings. The use of a wedding ring cushion during the exchange of the wedding rings has become increasingly popular in the UK.Olivier's debut collection was launched at the National Wedding Show in London in February 2004.
Olivier was delighted with the response he received, "It was a great feeling to hear that people loved the cushions. Although I also kept hearing how they would love to have one of my ring cushions but they weren't having a page boy. I think it is not as common here as it is in Belgium to have a rin cushion at the front of the church. We don't typically use ring bearers and
I am hoping that the English will start to follow us on this. I would love my ring cushions to be the hot, new bridal accessory." The idea, which was originally conceived when Olivier was unable to find a designer wedding ring cushion for his own wedding, has grown to a desire to create beautiful luxury pieces.
WeddingRingCushions' philosophy is that while not everyone can afford a luxury designer dress for their wedding each bride should be able to have one luxury designer item. Since each Olivier Laudus cushion comes personalised with the bride and groom?s initials and wedding date, it is truly unique to that couple. As Olivier comments, "I wanted to do something very intricate [hence his "La Ros?e"cushion taking about five hours to bead] using luxurious fabrics and beads, something that the couple could treasure." It was Olivier's desire to produce bridal objets d'art that inspired him to create his Limited Edition Flamenco inspired "La Boheme" cushion which is beaded with red and white Swarovski crystals. With his original signature Swarovski
pearl beaded rings on the back of the cushion and handcrafted white stylish presentation boxes, WeddingRingCushions has already created a strong brand identity. Prices start from ?77.00 and a couture service is available from ?85.

Wedding Ring
The wedding ring is a ring that will often be made from precious metals, and it will be worn on the left ring finger. It is also worn on the right ring finger in countries such as Norway or Russia. The purpose of a wedding ring is to represent a marriage. Both spouses will wear rings to show that they are commited to each other. The custom originated in Europe, but has spread to many other countries which are outside of Europe.
In some cultures the wedding ring is only one of three rings that will be given when a couple is in the process of getting married.
The other two rings are the engagement ring and the promise ring. The engagement ring is well known, and will be given when a couple has become engaged. A promise ring is not as well known, but will be given once a couple begins courting each other. In many European countries, the name of the soon to be spouse will be placed within the ring. While wedding rings have traditionally be worn by women, wedding rings...

Why Titanium Wedding Rings Might Be For You
Is a titanium wedding ring for you? I found that titanium is an interesting metal, and that a titanium wedding ring really is something you should consider. Titanium is actually very common on earth, but until 1791, we humans didnt even know it existed. Even then, though, we couldnt isolate it for another 100 years or so. It is a gray metal that is used in alloys because of it is light and resistant nature. Besides from the earth, it has also been found in moon rocks and meteorites.
Besides titanium wedding rings, the metal has many uses.
Because it resists corrosion from most anything, including salt water, acids, and even corrosive cases, it is ideal for many industries. It is used in medicine, aviation, and engineering to develop everything from prosthetic implants to building frames. It is also an inert and hypoallergenic material so it can be used most anywhere.
