Good Things Can Happen When You Shop Together For A Diamond Engagement Ring!
It has long been customary for the guy to be the one to select and purchase an engagement ring for the lady he adores and with whom he hopes to spend the rest of his life. The woman can't help but fantasise about the day the man she loves will propose to her by getting down on one knee in front of her. As the story progresses, he takes out a small velvet-covered box, opens it, and then proposes marriage to her. He shows her a beautiful diamond ring that shimmers and shines as it catches the light and places it on her finger.
It's like something out of a fairy tale. Unfortunately, this kind of situation does not invariably have a good conclusion. The man decides to buy the ring for the woman he loves, but she doesn't want to wear it. This follows his recent purchase of the ring, for which he shelled out thousands of pounds. Either that or he discovers that the ring he bought for her finger is too small. She may decline his marriage proposal. The fairy tale may become your worst nightmare!
A Joint Process To Choose Your Engagement Ring Is Probably Better
It is gradually becoming more common for couples to go ring shopping together before becoming engaged. As a result, a new pattern has emerged to take the place of the conventional approach to getting engaged. Instead of the man purchasing the ring alone, couples are now shopping for engagement rings together. In this telling of the fairytale, choosing an engagement ring together represents the first decision the couple will make together as they begin their new life as a married couple.

Ultimately, checking out engagement rings as a couple can save a lot of money (and hassles). The woman will try it on to ensure a proper fit and avoid the inconvenience of having to return it to the store and exchange it for one that does fit.
Choosing the ring together might also save them money since the woman will be there to help decide which diamond ring symbolises their love together the best. Flying solo usually means the man picks one out that he thinks she'll like and spends too much money on it just to make a good impression.
If you are hesitant about whether or not she would answer yes, you take extra precautions to avoid the sticky situation of making a purchase from a store that does not permit returns. Some places won't take the ring back at all, while others could do so for a lower price than what you originally paid. In this way, if the woman declines your proposal of marriage, you won't have to worry about losing any money.
With this new tradition, couples can spend quality time researching and educating themselves about diamonds to know which diamond ring would be the perfect purchase.
They can plan what kind of ring they want and even get a custom design! They can also research the average prices for the type of ring they want so they can prepare ahead of time. Some women still want the element of surprise when the man pulls out a ring and proposes to her.
Imagine it as a treasure hunt, complete with clues at various points. You can keep her guessing for the entire day by not revealing your plans for where you will go next. The final objective will be to get her involved in selecting her diamond engagement ring. It is possible to make the experience of shopping for an engagement ring with someone special to you into one of the most memorable days of your life.
How We Chose Our Engagement Ring
In our case, we discussed getting married. My fiancee chose several rings that she liked. I went with her to several jewellery shops, and the choice was the ring that I liked the best from the ones she had already shortlisted.

Working in this way did not remove the element of surprise – it changed it. I arranged a special event during which I proposed. My fiancee was bowelled over by the entire evening. For my part, I could be relaxed and enjoy the occasion because I already knew she wanted to marry me. The ring was just what she wanted, and it fitted her perfectly.
Choose Your Engagement Ring Together Online
When I asked my fiancee to marry me, the world was a little different! The Internet was young, and the only way to buy an engagement ring was to go around jewellery shops in the shopping malls or on the high street.
These days choosing an engagement ring is much more convenient. We can do so from the comfort of our homes using the Internet. This relatively new way of shopping opens up new opportunities for choosing and buying an engagement ring as a couple.
Make The Choice Of Ring A Special Event!
Even if you plan to buy your engagement ring online, there is no reason the process should not be unique. For example, why not prepare a special meal. Date night at home! Enjoy the evening. While enjoying the meal together, discuss the kind of ring and perhaps the budget. That way, you can prepare the ground for opening your browser on the All Diamond web store. Between you, you will likely have built up an idea of what to look out for and what you can avoid.
When you start looking, you can discuss the rings without the pressure of salespeople urging you to make choices or upselling you past your comfort zone! If the online jeweller is customer focused, you can expect to find an online chat system. You can use it to ask questions about the items you like or perhaps ask for advice about the suitability of a ring for your fiancee's lifestyle.
Choosing your engagement ring this way can be more relaxed but exciting. We think choosing a ring this way is much better than traipsing around old-style bricks and mortar stores, looking over their limited ranges to see each store's best. We can understand the attraction of actually being able to put the rings onto her finger. But, as my fiancee and I found, that is a problem when one must go to several shops. Comparisons become very hard to make. Online, one can put the choices next to each other and make good comparisons.
When choosing an engagement ring from All Diamond, you can even return or exchange it after it has been delivered! This means you can be absolutely certain that you made the right choice by seeing it in real life. Enjoy the ring in your home, under normal lighting rather than artificial lights in the jeweller's shop designed to show off diamond jewellery at its best!
Final Thoughts About Choosing Your Engagement Ring Together
From this article, you can see that we think that a joint purchase is usually the best option. At the same time, we understand that this is not the best choice for every couple and every situation. We will work with you to choose the best ring for your fiancee, whether you do so alone or together!
We have a massive selection of engagement rings using diamonds and other precious stones. All of our rings are designed and handcrafted in the UK. Many of our designs come with an individual diamond grading certificate that describes and grades the diamond in your ring. We stand behind the work of our artisans by offering a lifetime workmanship guarantee. After all, an engagement ring is a purchase that should last a lifetime and may become a family heirloom!
