what does she desire?

When getting an engagement ring for a bride-to-be, you’ll want to take her design preferences into consideration. What she likes can make a big difference in determining how much you should spend on that ring.

• Does she want a diamond?
• Is there a certain diamond cut that catches her eye?
• Round, cushion cut, emerald cut?
• Is there a certain carat size that her heart yearns for?
• What kind of metals does she like?
• Is she in love with yellow gold, or is her heart set on white gold or platinum?
• Does she want a colored stone? Gemstones like rubies, sapphires, and emeralds can make a lovely alternative to diamonds.
• For example, does she love astrology and want your birthstone on her ring?
• Some soon-to-be-brides want an eternity band instead of a diamond engagement ring.

How much you’ll spend on the ring will depend greatly on her preferences on these questions listed above. Considering how much of an emotional and financial investment engagement rings can be, it’s in your best interest to find out what your beloved likes so you get her a ring that is EXACTLY suitable.

have you thought of custom?

While there are a lot of different ring styles to choose from, some couples prefer to custom design their engagement ring and wedding band sets. 

While custom jewelry can sometimes be more expensive than buying a finished ring, the trade-off is that you will end up with an original piece that is more sentimental, one-of-a-kind just as the woman who’s going to be wearing it..
