5 Steps for Designing the Best Custom Engagement Rings

Custom engagement rings are among the most beautiful choices for a special engagement surprise because they are custom made gifts from the heart that virtually no one else in the world would have. Rings are among the most versatile jewelry pieces that can be designed and customized to any look and style, which is ideal for anyone wanting to get something to match someone's personality. The custom engagement rings can also be designed perfectly for a specific theme that the couple can share together.

In order to give you a better idea how to design the best custom engagement rings and the options that are available to you, consider the following tips:

Size

First of all, it's very important to get the proper sized ring because nothing's more disappointing than a romantic engagement and the ring doesn't even fit on the finger. It may not be easy to get the best fit, it's always better to go bigger than smaller, since larger rings can easily be taken down a size or more.

One sneaky way that many people find out a ring size is simply checking existing rings that the person who will be surprised wears on a fairly regular basis. Simply fit it according to your own fingers or measure the contour with a slip of paper.

General Style

The next step is to decide the general style that you would like to get. This will provide a good base that you can then work with to create plans for custom engagement rings in several designs that you will then be able to choose from in the end. Think about the style and personality of the person you would like to purchase the ring for. Some people love vintage designs while others prefer modern or unique artistic styles.

Metals

There are many different types of metals and material that can be used for custom engagement rings, with each one offering a different look for each style. While some yellow gold rings are better suited for more traditional designs, there's also the opportunity to combine white gold or platinum to a traditional piece, just to give it a nice mix of modern and vintage mix.

Stones

There are also thousands of different stones and combinations of stones that can be incorporated into custom engagement rings. Traditional engagement pieces tend to have classic diamonds but there's nothing stopping you from choosing more significant stones like someone's birthstone or a stone that matches a favourite colour.

Colourful stones are especially versatile when it comes to custom designs that have a floral or very feminine design.

Extra Details

Finally, there are the final details that can make an engagement ring perfectly customized and unique. Adding engraved messages or an engraved design to the band is certainly a wonderful way to add a warm personalized message from the heart.

Another great touch that some people choose for their unique engagement ring is to shape the band in a decorative manner. A professional jeweller can beautifully shape a ring band in a swirl, floral, wave or even a geometric shape to add a more dramatic touch.

An engagement is something that will be cherished and remembered throughout time, which is why so many try to make the entire event as unique and personal as possible. By including a custom engagement ring that's created for your special someone, it truly shows how much love and consideration was placed on getting something that would be perfect for the occasion.

Three Steps for the Perfect Valentine's Day Proposal

Valentine's day: love and romance. Hearts and roses surrounding, heart shaped chocolates, romantic songs... the atmosphere shouts LOVE! Why not to make this year Valentine's day to be a really special one, a day you shall remember for the rest of your life? Yes, what I mean is a Valentine's day engagement.

Here you will find tips on how to make your proposal unique and really romantic.


For modern people the 14th February is associated with very classic romantic moments: sunsets, a box of chocolates, roses, candles and intimate dinners. Those you have to use as basic for your proposal, but the rest depends on you and your own creativity


Where?


I'm sure you must have a place that has a special meaning to you. Maybe a restaurant you met, or a park where you kissed for a first time? Consider of course the likes and dislikes of your fiance. If you choose a park make sure it will be evening under the starlight, with no people hanging around.


This is options for couples who wants this special moment belong only to them. If instead you chose the restaurant where for example you had your first date make sure there are candles, romantic music and red wine. Take in consideration also the fact that other guest will be there witnessing to your proposal. As alternative of restaurant you can take your bride to spend the night in a house in the mountains, where by the fireplace light and warmth you shall make your proposal.


How?


Well, this is where your creativity came to work. You can simply place the ring in the box of chocolates, heart - shaped and not too big. Or tie it to the bouquet you are to give your beloved. Another and really romantic idea is to place the ring inside a really impressive single rose blossom, but make sure it will be easily noticeable, otherwise could fall out easily. In case you decide to have an indoor, restaurant engagement use the romantic moment to make your proposal. Many restaurants offers to its clients an assistance, with the ring as a special "dessert", or by arranging a special music request - just ask for your song to be played some time during the dinner, and... Ask her!


Tempting is the idea of placing the ring inside the food, but it's not the most considerable thing to do... one inadvertent bite and the dinner may turn out into medical emergency.


When?


It depends only on you. Of course you cannot organize a romantic dinner as a first thing in the morning, but you may consider preparing a breakfast for your love, during which you give her the ring? That will give you all day to celebrate, finishing with romantic dinner by candlelight.


For those who decide for an outdoors proposal best moments should be sunrise or sunset, eventually evening with starlight sky.
