How to Design a Custom Engagement Ring your Partner will Love
Here are our top tips to design the perfect custom engagement ring design for your partner.
Do Your Research
As you’re getting started, you have research to do (which is why you’re here). When it comes to the design of the ring, try to speak to your partner to see if they have strong opinions about the design.
If you’re keeping it top secret, creep your partner’s Pinterest boards (they may be hidden), or their saved posts on Instagram. Asking a sister/cousin/best friend is also always a good idea too!
2. Make it Personal
You’re creating a custom ring instead of buying one from the store – so you may as well make it personal! This means creating a design that reflects your partner. This may be seen in your choice of a unique centre stone, alternative setting style or hand-applied texture.
3. Build Trust
This may be the biggest purchase you’ve ever made – you want to trust and connect with the person making your ring. Build trust with your jeweller. You should feel comfortable asking them questions and have an open dialogue throughout the process.
4. Keep it Simple
If you’re at a loss – our advice is to keep the design simple. Trends come and go, but a classic, simple ring never goes out of style. If the ring is minimalistic your partner can always add drama or accentuate the engagement ring with a unique wedding band.
