First comes love, then comes marriage…and somewhere in the middle of that comes an engagement ring that she’ll treasure forever! Having witnessed two brothers on their quest to find the perfect engagement ring a few years ago, I know how daunting of a task it can be.
Although there is a lot of pressure surrounding engagement ring shopping, it doesn’t have to be as difficult as it may seem, especially if you shop for engagement rings at The Bradford Exchange Online. Scroll down to learn 5 rules you can break when it comes to engagement ring shopping to help you discover the perfect ring for your perfect lady.
1. “It has to be a diamond.”
Diamonds are definitely the most popular choice of engagement rings nowadays, but diamonds aren’t the only precious gemstone that can express your devotion in style. After all, Kate Middleton’s heirloom sapphire engagement ring once worn by Princess Diana is considered one of the most famous engagement rings in the world! (You can find a stunning replica Kate Middleton engagement ring on our site.)
2. “You have to buy it in person.”
We live in a magical age where you can have virtually anything delivered to your doorstep, from groceries to furniture to engagement rings. One of the real benefits of shopping online for an engagement ring is that you can browse a much larger selection of engagement rings than you’d be able to see at a jewelry store, and comparison shop without a clerk breathing down your neck.
3. “It has to be expensive.”
Back in the day, the general rule was that the engagement ring you buy should cost 3 months’ worth of your salary. You can certainly choose to spend that much if you so wish, but keep in mind that there are many more affordable options today that are just as stunning. Check out our selection of Diamonesk® women’s rings that boast the flawless brilliance of the finest genuine diamonds at a fraction of the cost.
4. “It has to be the perfect fit.”
One of my brothers bought a ring that was too big, and the other bought a ring that was too small. Guess what? Their girlfriends ended up saying “I do” anyways! You can always get the ring resized afterwards if you need to. And, if you buy her ring from The Bradford Exchange Online, it’s backed by our generous 120-day money-back guarantee with free return shipping, so you can ensure a perfect fit eventually if it’s not right the first time. It might also help to download our ring sizing guide.
5. “You have to do it alone.”
Buying an engagement ring is a big decision! Ask one of her tight-lipped friends for her opinion on some ring styles. Her mom or sister might be a helpful option as well. And, if you don’t mind “spilling the beans,” the best person to ask is the lucky lady herself!
If you’re shopping for engagement rings, I hope this helped and best of luck! Make sure to visit our site for an amazing selection of engagement rings that she’s sure to treasure. \
Just remember you don’t have to follow tradition when shopping for engagement rings if you don’t want to. After all, your special lady is one-of-a-kind and she deserves something just as unique as she is!
