A Man’s Guide To Finding The Perfect Engagement Ring

Ready To Lock Her Down? Find The Perfect Engagement Ring

In terms simple for a man to understand, when it comes down to finding the right kind of ring for a woman there are about as many different choices as the mood swings we have throughout the day. Of course, that doesn’t mean that finding the perfect engagement ring has to be hard. If you know what kind of woman you are shopping for then that makes things a lot easier and assuming that you’re planning on marrying the girl, you should know exactly what you’re getting yourself into.

Know Your Budget
The first thing to take into consideration is your available finances. If you are on a tight budget you want to be aware of that, it’s natural to want to buy your potential future fiancé the shiniest, largest diamond ring in the store, but can you afford it?

Negotiate
Find out what’s available in your price range and narrow down your selections accordingly, there are plenty of beautiful rings waiting to be placed on a wedding finger which doesn’t require you to break the bank to do so. Also be aware that if you know how talk numbers, the price required to be paid can be negotiated.

Your Mrs.’ Style Is Everything
Knowing your future Mrs. to be’s style will also contribute to finding and buying her the perfect engagement ring. If your potential future fiancé has a loud personality and is the flashy type, placing a 4.5mm diamond ring on her finger isn’t exactly going to cut it, especially if it isn’t covered with diamonds. On the other hand, if you know your sweetie isn’t a fan of wearing jewelry too much that size diamond would suit her well. It is also important to be aware of what size ring finger she is so the fit can be just perfect.  Also be mindful of her preference on metals for the ring band. Some woman prefer a yellow gold over rose gold, while others prefer silver over platinum.  Obviously, this is a lot to consider.  Many men don’t get it right the first time and have to sell their diamond rings later.

Know Her Preferred Diamond Cut
One of the last and most important decisions to make when looking for the perfect engagement ring is knowing the kind of cut you want for the diamond. While most people tend to go with the traditional circle cut, you have to be aware if your sweetie is the kind of woman who prefers traditional, antique or if her taste in style says she’s more unique. If so, you can also consider getting one custom made for the ultimate perfect engagement ring.
