You probably want to get your girl the biggest, best diamond engagement ring you can, to show her how much she means to you.  But you might wonder:

How do I find a ring with the right gemstone or diamond, style, and setting?

The key to finding the right style ring is knowing what your special someone loves!  Find out what style of engagement ring she is interested in by taking a peek at her Pinterest boards, talking to her close friends, or nonchalantly asking questions about her jewelry style.  After doing some research to understand her style best, find a few rings that she would love. 

Take note of each ring’s design aspects that make them unique and special and the designs that she loves.  

Creating a custom engagement ring is the best way to implement all the designs she loves into the right engagement ring!  

How do I balance the quality and price of an engagement ring?

This is such a good question.  Precious metal prices are high, and, sadly, many jewelry businesses cut corners when it comes to quality.  Make sure you are getting the best quality by asking about the width and thickness of the shank.  You don’t want the ring to wear out prematurely.  Ask or look for reviews regarding the design’s integrity to see if there are any problems with the supporting gallery structure or the prongs.  Know what the 4 Cs of diamonds are and how they affect the value of the stones.

There are so many places to shop for an engagement ring.  How can I make sure to buy from a trustworthy jeweler?

Do your research to find the right place to go ring shopping. Make sure to find a trustworthy jeweler before making your purchase.  Some shops might appear to sell quality rings, but they may cut corners in quality.  For example, even popular jewelry stores sell more pieces with low metal weight and fragile designs at high prices.  Shop from jewelers that have a reputation for good quality and transparency when it comes to pricing. 

Our mission is to create heirloom-quality pieces with excellent structural integrity.  At Bling Advisor, we believe that you should have options when it comes to pricing and quality.  Chat with one of our advisors today to learn about creating your perfect ring within your budget.  We can recommend the best quality materials and structural enhancements to make sure your ring lasts for generations.

How can I make sure the engagement ring I buy is different and unique?

To ensure the ring you purchase is the right ring, we recommend building her dream ring from scratch!  The best part about true custom jewelry is that your imagination is the limit.  You can implement all of the design elements she loves in one beautiful ring and make sure it matches your partner’s style perfectly.
