How to Pick Out an Engagement Ring

8.12.21

Picking out an engagement ring is a huge decision. Choosing the perfect engagement ring for your significant other can be daunting. There are a few tricks to finding out exactly what your significant other is looking for in a ring. Here’s how to find out the perfect ring for your soon-to-be fiance.

Get the conversation started

Your engagement ring is the most important piece of jewelry you’ll ever own. The first tip would be to get the conversation started.  Opening the conversation allows both of you to start discussing the future and what she does and doesn’t like. It’s up to the both of you how involved the future bride wants to be. The ring could be completely up to the future groom or you could go shopping and pick one out together. It’s completely up to the couple! If you want it to be more of a surprise, another option is talking to her closest friends and family. Most likely, the bride has mentioned what her dream ring looks like. There’s a good chance she’s mentioned it to either her family or friends. Ask the people that know her style best their opinions. This will help make sure it’s something she will love, while still being a surprise.

What to spend

A wedding can be very expensive very fast. It’s important to discuss finances with your significant other. This is an extremely important piece of jewelry; so therefore you and your partner should sit down and delve into what the right budget for you two is. If you’re both in debt, remember that it’s perfectly fine to scale back on the costs of the ring. It’s so important to set your budget before you begin your search. Being honest about what you can spend on the engagement ring will help you pick out the perfect ring without leading to disappointment or going overboard. Telling your jeweler your budget should be one of the first things you do when you walk into the store. This saves everyone’s time and helps the jeweler know exactly what you’re looking for.

Make it personal

An engagement ring is the most sentimental jewelry can get, which is why you shouldn’t settle for the first one you think your fiancé would like. A popular trend is personalizing your ring. This can include a meaningful message written inside the ring or an engraving with their name, initials, or wedding date. These are excellent options to make the ring more sentimental for the bride-to-be. There are also other options for you to make it personal without doing traditional engravings. You can also design the engagement ring yourself from the style, setting, metal, and more! Creating your own engagement ring can also reduce the hassle and time most people experience while shopping for jewelry. Purchasing a wedding ring should be one of the most fun parts of preparing for a wedding. The main thing to keep in mind is the engagement ring symbolizes the bond you two have with one another, so remember that when purchasing the ring!
