You’ve finally decided to take the plunge and make a commitment to the one you love. Now it’s time to start planning your life together. After popping the question, there’s still the challenge of finding those all-important engagement rings to seal the deal.
Shopping for engagement rings can be exciting, as it marks the beginning of a new chapter of your life with your loved one. However, it can also be daunting, and many people are worried about the financial implications of purchasing an expensive piece of jewelry, not to mention planning for the big day. Remember, we don’t all need a $300 million engagement ring, nor do we have to spend the equivalent of three month’s salary; it’s possible to get something equally beautiful and meaningful without breaking the bank. All it requires is a little extra thought. Here are some tips to help you find the perfect engagement ring for you and your partner:
Set a Budget
While you don’t need to spend a fortune to find the right ring, it’s easy to get carried away once you start shopping. It’s important to start by setting a budget that you feel is reasonable. Remember, there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to budgeting for a special piece of jewelry. Every couple is different and has their own priorities, so follow a personal approach that fits in with your future plans.
Get the Size Right
There is no point going out ring shopping until you can be sure you are going to get a piece that fits. After all, you don’t want to pop the big question only to find that the ring then gets stuck or is too loose. If you are unsure of how ring sizes work, here is a guide on how to check your ring size.
Choose a Stone
While there is no doubt that diamonds are the stone traditionally associated with an engagement ring, it doesn’t mean that this is necessarily the stone for you or your partner. Diamonds are often pricey, and if you can’t find a diamond that fits your budget, be willing to explore other options that can be accommodated for within your price range. There are lots of beautiful and unique stones that can be used to create a ring that is a little more quirky and original.
Think Outside the Box
Not everyone is a traditionalist, so it is important to realize that an engagement ring is not a prerequisite for showing your commitment to one another. You could always do away with the idea of a ring altogether and go for an alternative piece of jewelry. Another popular option would be to repurpose a family heirloom. A more modern way of doing things could also be to get matching tattoos on your ring fingers.
Getting engaged is a huge step and it is normal to want to mark the occasion in some notable way. However, it’s important to do this in a way that works for you, your partner, and your future plans. I hope these tips will help you find a ring that perfectly represents your union.
