Emily Johnston asked:




Buying a diamond engagement rings is one of the most rewarding purchases you will ever make. But how do you buy a diamond engagement ring with confidence that you are making a wise purchase? Buying your ring set should be a fun and enjoyable experience, use these suggestions to help you make the right choice.

It used to be the case that a gentleman would be obligated to buy his girlfriend an engagement ring set without her involvement or knowledge, and then upon proposal present all his hopes and dreams wrapped up in his choice of diamond ring. As you well know, she would then either decline the proposal or accept, and their happiness would be joined from that day forward. The engagement ring buying process is changing though.

Shop for Your Ring Set Together
Men haven’t always been known to make the best choices when it comes to an engagement ring set, and you would be well advised to include your partner in such an important decision. The diamond you choose for her ring, plus the settings, and band style all have many options to choose from, and you will be much better served if you do not surprise your partner with style choices that may not be shared. It is very popular in this day and age to shop for your rings together in order to make the right choice.

Choose A Loose Diamond First And Then A Setting
It is a well known secret within the diamond district that buying a loose diamond and then choosing then customizing the setting and band to accompany your diamond is a wise choice to get more quality for your budget. Diamond ring sets that come pre packaged typically are more expensive and you will get a better value if you purchase a loose diamond first.

Start With Your Engagement Diamond
Your engagement diamond is the most important decision you will make for your engagement ring. Shop solely for a quality diamond and worry about your band and setting later. You can always customize a white gold, or platinum band to fit your diamond, but as the symbolic focus of your purchase, finding the perfect diamond first will set the foundation for your success.

There are a variety of cuts and colors to choose from when considering how to buy a diamond, but the information is available to help you choose the right option. Be sure to listen to your instinct as well, remember to buy the diamond engagement rings that feel right for you rather, as ultimately you will decide what your diamond rings are truly worth.

Lain asked:


It came to my attention more recently about the horrible conditions and how people are seriously exploited because of the diamond industry. My feelings toward my boyfriend getting me a diamond engagement ring have always been, well he doesnt have to get me a diamond..actually i love sapphires. but I have had plenty of women tell me that is unacceptable…that like diamonds are required…. but here is my question. Does it really matter that much? And if its such a requirement doesnt that make your engagement ring less unique???
thanks for the answers. I have a close italian family and i brought this up once and it caused an uproar lol. Oh well…while I am at it maybe i should get a hot pink wedding dress…i think im going to stick with the idea of a sapphire ring :) and on top of that i much rather put more money into the honeymoon

cksparker asked:


I have researched the topic as I am considering proposing to my girlfriend and everything I read says that I should get a certified diamond. However, my family thinks that I should get a non-certified diamond engagement ring because they are much cheaper. I come from a middle class family and am unsure if I should get a certified (and smaller) diamond or and uncertified diamond ring…
