How to Buy Your Dream Engagement Ring

Choose a Carat Size and Diamond Shape
Diamonds of different carat size and shape significantly contribute to the innate beauty of a ring. Deciding on the center stone of the engagement ring truly sets the tone for the overall appearance of the ring. Choosing a one carat or two carat diamond can look much different depending on what shape you do pick. A round diamond or an emerald diamond are both gorgeous choices yet have contrasting styles. The love and consideration that goes into buying an engagement ring should reflect the aesthetic of your partner and the love that is shared.

Select a SettingWhen selecting an engagement ring setting, consider the timeless elegance of a solitaire ring, which beautifully showcases a single, stunning diamond, allowing its brilliance to take center stage. For those seeking extra sparkle, a halo setting features a circle of smaller diamonds surrounding the center stone, enhancing its size and radiance. Side stone rings offer a luxurious touch with diamonds or gemstones lining the band, adding depth and dimension. The three-stone ring setting, symbolizing your past, present, and future together, is perfect for a romantic gesture. Each setting at Weston Jewelers is designed to help you find the perfect ring for proposing to your partner. |
Consider Precious MetalsThe precious metal that you choose is a big decision, and some people have very specific preferences regarding the metals they wear on the regular. Yellow gold exudes timeless elegance and tradition, offering a warm, classic look that enhances any engagement ring design. White gold presents a modern, sophisticated appearance with its bright, silvery sheen, perfect for those who appreciate a sleek and polished aesthetic. Rose gold stands out with its romantic blush hue, adding a touch of contemporary charm and uniqueness. Platinum, renowned for its durability and luxurious finish, provides an enduring and exquisite choice that will last a lifetime. Each of these precious metals brings its own distinct beauty and qualities, ensuring you find the perfect setting for your engagement ring. |
