Tips For Creating A Custom Engagement Ring

Tips For Creating A Custom Engagement Ring
Engagement rings are very personal to each individual, and for that reason, it is not uncommon for people to choose to create their own custom ring rather than to buy one off the shelf. Creating a custom engagement ring is a magical process that ensures that your engagement ring ends up being as unique as your love is for one another. So if you are thinking about creating your own custom engagement ring, then here are a few tips to help you. ​

Start the process early 
Creating an engagement ring takes a lot more time than walking into a store and trying on a few settings, and for this reason, it is crucial that you start the process early. From the day you begin your journey, it could take months for your ring to be in your possession, so give yourself plenty of time so that you do not rush and can enjoy the process. 
Try on plenty of settings
Most couples have some idea about the kind of setting that they want for their ring, but it is important not to disregard other settings until you have tried them on your finger. You may feel as though you hate the idea of a square setting until you try it on your finger, so keep an open mind, use the time to experiment a little with styles outside of your comfort zone and you may find that the setting you choose is very different from the one you first imagined. 
Don’t feel bad about looking at a lot of gemstones
When choosing loose diamonds for your ring, never feel bad about booking more than one viewing. It is essential that your diamond speaks to you on a personal level, and that kind of connection can sometimes take a few tries to get right. Similarly, if you are choosing a diamond through a website such as https://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/search/, bear in mind that the diamond may look different in person. 
Choose a reputable jeweller and stylist
Although you may already have a preconceived idea as to what you want your engagement ring to look like, a reputable jewellery designer or stylist will be able to help you a lot throughout the process. To ensure that you end up with the engagement ring of your dreams, do your research and be sure to pick a jeweller and stylist that understands what you are trying to achieve and isn’t preoccupied with their own agenda. 
Consider buying your wedding band from the same jeweller
​
Having put all of this special effort into creating the perfect engagement ring, you won’t want to spoil it by stacking it on top of a substandard wedding band. To ensure that your rings sit cohesively together and compliment one another, consider designing and buying your wedding bands from the same jeweller and including their design in the process. 

Creating a great engagement ring is an experience that you and your partner will cherish forever, and with these tips, we hope that you continue to enjoy the final ring for many years to come.

Great tip about booking more than one viewing. That makes sense considering you want to make sure you don't botch such a large purchase. I need to get a diamond ring for my girlfriend by May.

My brother is planning on asking his girlfriend to marry him next month and he wants to get her an engagement ring that is custom-made. You made an interesting point when you explained that it is important to find a jeweler that doesn't have their own agenda. It seems like it might be a good idea for my brother to talk with some jewelers so that he can get to know them before he settles on a business to work with.

I like that you pointed out that it is best to try different settings as well even if you already have an idea in mind on how the ring will look. I will share this tip with my brother to help him pick the right ring. It's for his girlfriend of three years who he wants to settle down with ever since he met her.

Thanks for pointing out that one must start early when having a custom engagement ring made. As you said, it could take months for the ring to be in the buyer's possession. I will share this information with my brother since he plans to propose to his partner this coming December. He should start looking for a supplier as early as now.
