FAQs

How much should I spend on a diamond engagement ring?

It is a general rule of thumb to spend about 2 to 3 months of your salary. Ultimately, the value of your engagement ring lies in the sentiment and meaning behind it, so it is important to remember to spend what you’re comfortable with and not go into debt because of it.

What is the difference between an engagement ring and a wedding ring?

An engagement ring is typically given during the proposal as a symbol of intent to marry. It is usually worn by the recipient prior to the wedding. A wedding ring, also known as a wedding band, is exchanged during the wedding ceremony and represents the formal union of marriage. It is traditionally worn by both partners as a constant reminder of their commitment and marital status.

What should I know before buying an engagement ring?

First, understand your partner's style preferences and ring size to ensure a meaningful and well-fitting choice. Secondly, set a budget and explore different diamond characteristics to make an informed decision. Lastly, compare prices and consider certification to ensure the authenticity and quality of the ring.

Are Lab Grown Diamonds good for engagement rings?

Lab grown diamond engagement rings make for a superb choice. These diamonds exhibit identical chemical and optical properties to natural diamonds, offering the same beauty and durability. Lab grown diamonds are also a more ethical and environmentally-friendly option, as they are sustainably created in a controlled laboratory environment. They often come at a more affordable price point, allowing you to get a larger or higher-quality diamond for your budget.

How do I insure my engagement ring?

To insure your engagement ring, first get the ring appraised by a certified gemologist to determine its current value. Then contact your insurance provider and inquire about adding a rider or endorsement to your existing homeowner’s or renter’s insurance policy to cover the ring. Alternatively, consider specialized jewelry insurance companies like Jewelers Mutual that offer specific coverage for valuable items like engagement rings.
