How To Choose Your Engagement Ring

Ultimately, you want to choose a ring that represents your relationship and commitment to one another. The best thing about choosing an engagement ring is that it symbolises love and commitment to your partner and will be a cherished memory for a lifetime. It is an opportunity to personalise the ring and make it meaningful for the both of you.

Metal

The most popular metal choices for engagement rings are gold, platinum, and white gold. Gold comes in different carats, with 9ct and 18ct being the most common. Yellow gold is a classic and luxurious choice that will last for many years to come and is hypoallergenic. Platinum is a premium metal known for its durability and longevity, while white gold is a popular alternative to platinum, with a similar look but lower cost. Ultimately, the best metal for an engagement ring will depend on personal preference and budget.

Budget

The budget for an engagement ring is a personal decision and can vary greatly. Factors such as individual income, personal preferences, and cultural traditions can all influence how much is spent on an engagement ring. There is no specific amount that is considered standard or required. Some people may choose to spend a few thousand dollars, while others may spend tens of thousands of dollars. Ultimately, the most important thing is to choose a ring that is meaningful and special to you and your partner, regardless of the cost.

Gemstone

The best gemstones for engagement rings vary based on personal preference and factors such as durability, rarity, and colour. However, some of the most popular options include:

  1. Diamonds: timeless and classic, known for their brilliance and clarity.
  2. Sapphires: available in a variety of colours, known for their durability and affordability.
  3. Rubies: a symbol of love and passion, known for their rich red colour.
  4. Emeralds: symbolize rebirth and renewal, known for their vibrant green colour.
  5. Opals: unique and beautiful, with flashes of colour.
  6. Pearls: timeless and elegant, symbolise purity and innocence.

It is important to consider factors such as colour, clarity, cut, and carat weight when choosing a gemstone for an engagement ring.

Popular Engagement Ring Styles

  1. Solitaires: A single diamond set in a classic band. It is a timeless design that you can cherish for many years to come and it will never go out of style. Solitaire rings are incredible versatile and put a real focus on the centre stone.
  2. Halo: A halo ring is a type of jewellery that features a central gemstone surrounded by smaller gems in a circular pattern, creating a "halo" effect. The halo of gems can enhance the appearance of the central gem and create a larger-looking piece. Halo rings are commonly used in engagement rings and other types of fine jewellery.
  3. Three-Stone: Three diamonds set together, symbolizing the couple's past, present, and future. The rings centre is usually the largest in the trio and symbolises the present. A classic, beautiful design, three-stone engagement rings are a great choice.
