How to plan the perfect wedding day

Buying An Engagement Ring


If you want the engagement ring that you buy for your loved one to be one she really loves, you are best off just asking her to pick it out for herself, but the surprise factor or the price you are willing to pay might be an issue, so you may well have to make the choice yourself. If you decide that you would like to choose an engagement ring without consulting your partner then you will need to put some serious thought and effort into getting the right one. Be sure to adhere closely to what you think your loved one likes and does not like; use her current jewelry as a basis for what she might want from you. Before you start looking for a ring, make sure you know what type of jewelry she likes, whether it is bold, vintage, contemporary or classic. Think to yourself – has she ever mentioned her favorite jewelry styles or pointed out rings when you have been out shopping together?

It might help you to just pass by a jewelry store the next time you two shop together, so you can figure out what catches her eye. Give the impression that you are looking for a new watch and spend a long time looking so that she will get bored and start looking around herself. Make sure you ask her if she liked anything before you leave so you can make a mental note of it for later. If you really do not have any idea of what kind of engagement ring to get, then choosing a diamond ring is a safe bet since almost all women like diamonds. While you might not feel that you have the money for a diamond engagement ring, you would be surprised at how cheap they can be. With a bit of investigation, you can find the ideal diamond in your price range, as they are graded in terms of how they are cut, what color and carat they are, and how clear they are. You can get some great deals on ones that are slightly flawed, where the flaws are not visible to the naked eye.

Choosing the perfect ring is not the only thing you have to worry about, you also need to make sure you buy it in the correct size. If she has any rings that she wears on her engagement ring finger already then try to get hold of one of them if she happens to take them off. If that fails, you could attempt to size up her fingers in other ways, like measuring a glove she owns, or even jokingly drawing around her hands / fingers on a piece of paper. If the ring you choose is not the right size, or if she does not like it for whatever reason, remember that you can always go back later and change it for one that she likes or one that fits. Make sure you let her know after you give her the ring that you do not mind if she does not like it and wants to exchange it for another one that she likes more.
