How to Choose the Perfect Diamond Engagement Ring for Your Fiancée

The essentials of a perfect proposal are to create a magical atmosphere, pick an idyllic location, and choose how exactly to pop the question. But it is also important to pick out the perfect ring for your bride-to-be. For all of the men who are intimidated when it comes to buying jewelry, here are some tips that will help you pick out a stunning ring for your future fiancée:

  • Pay attention to what style of jewelry she tends to wear regularly. Start noticing what metal color she usually prefers, such as white gold, platinum, or silver. Also, determine whether she is most often attracted to vintage-style pieces or more modern and polished jewelry.
  • Pick up on potential hints. If you two have been together for a while, then chances are she has been dropping subtle hints about a proposal, whether you have recognized them or not. Does she comment on her friends’ engagement rings? Does she subtly hint at what shape of diamonds she considers most attractive? Start to remember any of these potential hints, as they will help you decide what style ring will delight her the most.
  • Choose the right shape and setting. If you feel clueless about all jewelry and precious stones, then it may surprise you to find out that not all diamonds are cut in the same shape. Your future bride may prefer a round diamond or maybe she would rather have a square cut diamond adorn her hand. Ask the jeweler about the different cuts of diamond, as he or she will be able to help you immensely when it comes to understanding the intricacies of choosing an engagement ring.
  • Get the opinion of other women. This is a step that every man should take when picking out his fiancées engagement ring, as women tend to be more in tune with their friends’ jewelry preferences than most men. Ask her friends or family members to give you some tips on choosing which ring your significant other would like best.
