Rules of Engagement: What do I buy?
First of all, you don’t need to follow tradition. There’s this old rule that says you have to spend between 1-3 months salary on an engagement ring. But as we know, rules are made to be broken. How much you spend on a ring is completely up to you (and your partner if they’re involved in this process) because when it comes to money, there shouldn’t be a ‘one size fits all’ approach.
Also, the ring doesn’t have to be diamonds with a gold or silver band, you can have any metal you choose. Stainless steel, for example, is gaining popularity as it’s relatively inexpensive and doesn’t tarnish. Mixed metals are also a good way to find the perfect shade you’re after - couples have even had rings made from turquoise and onyx.
Another option is to head to the auctions, you never know what hidden gems you’ll find at a good price.
The next thing to consider is your partner’s lifestyle. For an active person who will be wearing their ring everyday, a large diamond solitaire will probably just get in the way so a flat band of diamonds might be a better alternative. A grouping of smaller diamonds is also usually cheaper than one big rock.
Now if you do want a rock, you need to think about diamond size and at this point it’s a good idea to get informed about the 4 C’s: cut, colour, clarity and carat.

The last (and most important) thing to considering when buying an engagement ring is to give yourself time. You may not find ‘the one’ in just a single visit to a jewellers. You want to make this decision a good one, so don’t rush it.
