In this article, we will be showing you the easy steps you need to get an engagement ring befitting for your partner:
Consider Your Price
What you can afford will determine the kind of ring you’re getting. Since engagement rings vary in terms of prices, it will be a great idea to have a “what I can afford” price and a “what I am willing to compromise” price. A while ago, the general notion was to spend three months' salary on a wedding ring. However, modern times have people considering a lot more rather than spending a huge amount on an engagement ring.
Visit A Few Stores
While it’s quite easy to just walk into a store and buy a ring, we would advise you don’t. You may end up finding a ring that reminds you of your partner in a different store. You also can get a load down of the different pricing. Make sure you check out for wedding bands as well and don’t forget to take pictures of the ones you like the most.
Figure Out The Basics
Diamonds usually have the ‘“4C” attributes. They are referred to the cut, color, carat weight, and clarity. Each of these Cs is unique to each stone and it represents different things to each couple. You should look out for the one that suits your lifestyle and your taste.
Choose A Style
What style of ring best describes your partner? Is it vintage, classic or sophisticated? Each ring represents a style. You should consider choosing the one that reminds you deeply of them, in terms of the shape, cuts and the overall outlook.
Find The Right Size
All fingers are not equal! If you’re planning a surprise proposal, you may want to work with your jeweler on choosing a size close to your partner’s. If you don’t have a picture of her hands, we would advise you to go for something slightly bigger. Afterward, you both can go to your jeweler to resize the ring.
Choosing an engagement ring for your significant other can be fun when you know the right things to consider. With these few steps, you’re good to go!
