My mother wants to get her wedding ring resized. How exactly is this done, and are there any consequences?

Normally you simply take it to a jeweler and they can do it for approximately $20. It's normally extremely easy, etc to do, so no worries, and it's likely nothing bad will come of it.

I have been told that sometimes it depends on the ring, some rings cannot be resized.

Depends on the material, but normally any jeweler can upsize (or downsize) a ring two or three sizes without any difficulty.

Just make sure you use a reputable jeweler so that there is no suspicion of anything funny going down.

From what I hear it's extremely easy. Never had to have it done myself, but I don't think it's a very difficult process and generally doesn't cost too much but ofcourse that'd depend entirely on what has to be done. I'd say just go to a jewelers and ask.

It is really easy to have a ring resized. I used to be a size 6, but when I got my engagement ring, it turned out that it was too large (I had lost weight). I took it to a jeweler and had it resized to a 5..it was a very quick process.

Yeah, if you think you are saving, you might end up wasting more money.
