Engagement Ring Shopping STOP Doing These 5 Things!

Today we are breaking down the top 5 things you should avoid when shopping for an
engagement ring!

1. Know what your partner wants
It may be difficult to know what your partners dream rings is, especially if you do not want to spoil the surprise of a proposal. Therefore, we recommend that you consider proposing with a fake ring first and then go through the process of picking and finding the perfect ring together!
A lot of men seem to think they know what women want (cute symbols, colors, infinity signs) when actually, a lot of women look for something more classic, which is why many of them end up redoing their engagement rings.

2. Stop limiting yourself to shopping local
If you love a jeweler who lives abroad, it is still possible to work with them on your ring. The technology that we have today has made the process of creating a custom engagement ring incredibly simple. Everything can be easily done by email! The process is that you tell us the design you’re looking for and we create that. We then go on the hunt for the gemstone of your picking, then take a high-quality video of it and email over to you. Additionally, we express ship a ring sizer to you to get your exact measurements. Once the ring is finished and you have approved of it, we express ship it to you!

3. Stop compromising
A lot of women compromise on their dream ring because of their budget, then come back years later and redo it. Nowadays, most companies can offer financing where you can split up your payments. Don’t cut corners and eliminate your ideas simply because of the cost, there are always ways around that!

4. Do your research
An educated client is the best client! If you have a certain stone in mind, we recommend that you do your research on it and find out what the basic things you should look for, pros and cons, standard prices, etc. This always helps because you’ll know exactly when you need once you meet your jeweler and will be able to understand what they are talking about. All of that helps you have better control over the situation.

5. Do not do a full eternity ring
Although it looks amazing, it creates an unnecessary hassle in the future. An engagement ring is, in theory, a lifetime purchase. We anticipate that we will have it forever. A lot of women’s sizes fluctuate throughout their lives, especially due to pregnancy. Resizing your ring might be inevitable, and resizing a full eternity ring is a very difficult and tedious process.

The "fake ring" idea is genious! This way the proposal will be kept a surprise but at the same time the bride-to-be will have the chance to choose/customise her real forever ring.

What do you think about moisonites ? I love the rainbow sparkles. My boyfriend doesnt make alot of money and i definitely do not want him to go into debt getting me a ring

Well spoken, great information. Thank you for the insights

This is why my husband and I designed my ring and then he got it and proposed we did a lab gown dimond and my birth stones. I do wish maybe I tried on styles and got an idea we made our idea online at the online store and went in got the ring.

I like your videos mostly on Tourmalines. I specialized on Tourmalines rough stones. Can you do a video on Paraiba-like tourmaline? Your last video I watched on Tourmalines you mentioned Paraiba-like a little.

What is wrong with the infinity sign? 😅 my ring has it and my husband picked it out all on his own and I love it. The sign is hidden under the halo and can only be seen from side profile

My engagement ring cost £145 pounds and i am super happy with it!! I would be heartbroken if my man ever spent more on a ring because to me the ring isnt important

[helisoma]

if the couple decides ahead of time to plan the ring together then great...however at least personally i think that if they agree that the man will surprise her then it's a representation of love from the man for the woman (or of course any sex or gender) so if she decides to change the ring it's a question of do you want to change the foundation of that moment and meaning 🙈🤔

I hate my engagement ring and my fiancé didn’t listen to anything 😂

[zelle]

I never understood the idea of borrowing or doing installment on engagement ring. My fiance had his credit line / loan increased for an engagement ring. It was a heated debate because I kept saying let's work on the current budget and not get a loan. In the end, he gave me a budget to work on.

Fiance: Remember, the price of the engagement ring should hurt me. That's my investment to you.
Me: Then why is it that I am the one that's being hurt with how expensive it is?

P.S. I just chuck it up to cultural thing?

Ummmm I'm not sure about the fake ring thing. Of course if you both agree I think its a great idea. But purposing with a fake ring without her knowing it, isn't proper.

The girl says yes to the ring and wears it. Or i talk to the other 3 billion

First of all, the Men pay for the ring, not the Women, so it is the Man's choice about the ring if the future bride even gets one in 2024.
