You’re going to need the Perfect Ring For Your Engagement ! Of course, ladies styles vary, and if you’ve not already got an idea of what ring she might like, getting the right piece can be a daunting prospect.

To save you the worry, here’s our tried and tested, step-by-step tips for choosing the perfect engagement ring.

1. What is her style?

If she’s been dropping hints whenever you go shopping together, start to pay more attention, to give a clearer idea of what she might like. You can also look at the jewellery she already owns, does she have a favourite piece? From looking at this, you should be able to gauge whether she likes simple understated pieces or if she’s more out there with her choices.

2. What’s Your Budget?

This is a really important one, before you start seriously looking you need to know what your budget is and what elements are most important to you.

3. The Stone

Once you know what style you’re going to go for, the next thing is the gem. This will probably be the most important element of the entire ring, so choose carefully.

4. Metal Type

When choosing a precious metal, firstly you will need to take a look at what colour of jewellery the love of your life tends to wear, and also which precious metal colour is going to look best with your chosen gem.
