How To Design The Perfect Engagement Ring

The engagement season can be stressful, there’s no doubt about it. From planning the proposal to finding a stunning ring, it’s all wrapped up in secrecy that some find almost unbearable. At least you know that Diamond Exchange can promise the most beautiful range of diamond engagement rings. Here are a few tips for picking a winner and wowing your fiance-to-be. 

Consider what your partner will like

The first question should be, ‘What will my partner like?’ It’s important to think about what will suit their personal style and lifestyle. For an active person or someone with a physically intense job, they might prefer a simple design with a thicker band that is going to be more durable. 

Choose a metal

Your metal options are; platinum, yellow gold, white gold and rose gold. People often people pick metals based on what complements their skin tone, so it might be worth taking note of which metal they usually favour in order to pick something they will truly love wearing.

Select a setting

After you’ve got the basics locked in, the setting is what really decides the look of the ring. Do they like modern, classic or vintage style ring? If you can’t find what you have in mind, you can always design your own custom ring.
