Your Engagement Ring Style: What Your Engagement Ring Says About You

Every engagement ring is unique, and each one says something about the woman wearing it.  When Kam and I picked out my ring, I knew exactly what I wanted and we looked high and low until we found it.  But we love the variety we see in rings and how much it tells us about our couples!

You may have known for your entire life what kind of ring you wanted, or you may be looking at rings for the first time.  No matter who you are, your ring is the ultimate symbol of your commitment and as such reflects you and your relationship.  Are you a classic romantic?  A stylish woman who loves the latest trends?   Just for fun, here are a few of our observations…

Diamond Solitaire – Classic and Timeless

A diamond solitaire never goes out of style.  It looks perfect with everything, and says that you are classy, romantic, and have an eye for timeless style.  You make beauty looked relaxed and easy, you value tradition, and you know good taste when you see it.  You’re marrying your best friend, and planning a wedding with classic touches and an eye for tradition.

The Vintage Ring – A Tie to History

If you are lucky, you may have inherited a vintage ring from a family member.  A vintage ring from your parents or grandparents is the ultimate symbol of family, as the ring that bound your family now binds you and your spouse.  It reminds you of where you come from, as well as the family you hope to create.  You value your place in the long chain of family, and are planning a wedding that ties the past to the present as you look towards the future.

The Bling Machine – Nothing But the Best

You work hard, you have a deep love for your friends, family, and soon-to-be spouse, and you know what you like.  You have style and you love to express it.  Your future spouse loves you for you, and loves to show you just how much he loves you.  Your wedding will be nothing less than fabulous.  This is your day to be at your best, as well as a day to make your guests feel like royalty.

The Custom-Designed Ring – One of a Kind

Your ring is a symbol of your relationship and your commitment, and as such should be as unique as you are.  You are quite thoughtful, value deep relationships, and see the meaning behind objects and actions.  Your wedding will be full of thoughtful, unique, details that express your lives and your relationship.

The Colored Stone – The Individualist

You like to be a little bit different.  You know what you like, and you are not afraid to stand out from the crowd.  Who says an engagement ring has to be a diamond?  You want your engagement ring to be totally you, and your wedding is the same.  From quirky venues, to good food and unique details, your wedding is totally you and totally awesome.  (Ok, I’m a little biased here, b/c you know I wear a sapphire ring!)

 

Of course, there is no wrong choice when it comes to engagement rings.  And if your guy is nervous, never fear, the right ring for you is out there.
