So youve decided to propose congratulations! This is a moment that most women have been dreaming about since they were little girls, so you will want to make it as special as possible for her. And because she is the most adorable woman in the world, you will want to give to her a diamond engangement ring that is as beautiful and unique as she is, so here are some tips to help you choose the ring that is perfect for her. At a time when you would gladly give your fiance-to-be the very moon and stars, your choice of ring might unfortunately be limited by a budget. While wedding etiquette books recommend spending about two months salary on a diamond engangement ring, remember that this is only a guideline. Love and romance cannot be easily translated into monetary figures, and so an expensive ring does not necessarily convey a greater love. Real romance is about matching the gift to the personality of the recipient, and showing that you have a real understanding of her personality, so purchasing a diamond engangement ring that you know she will love isnt as important as the price tag attached. There are a multitude of great jewellers around perform a thorough search for the ring that matches her, and who knows, you might just find a diamond ring at a great wholesale price. Most men, regardless of how well they know their girlfriends, have a distinct lack of understanding when it comes to jewelry! To gain an insight into the type of diamond engangement ring she might like, take a sneaky look at her favorite jewelry. Does she wear gold, or are her rings and other items made from white gold or silver? Does she like large pieces, or more subtle styles? They say that you can never buy a diamond that is too big, but many women prefer understated jewelry. If a good look through her jewelry case leaves you as clueless as before, then enlist the help of one of her girlfriends or a sister. Women tend to have a good idea of a close friends sense of style, so your new shopping partner should have some good insight on what your girlfriend would like in her diamond engagement ring. But remember it really is the thought that counts. Your new fiance simply wants to marry you and she will love her diamond engagement ring because it came from you. And if not well you can always exchange it! |
