Picking the right engagement ring can be a minefield. If your girlfriend has clear ideas about what she likes and you have discussed marriage seriously then take a trip to a jewellers and ask her what type of ring she likes the best.

  • Take note of whether she prefers gold or silver.
  • Does she like clusters of diamonds, or one simple stone.
  • Would she prefer a precious stone rather than a diamond – for example her birthstone.
  • Modern or classic design.

Try to remember what she like the best and then don’t be scared to head into the jeweller for a look by yourself. The staff are there to help you navigate all the different rings and if you have some ideas it will make the progress go smoothly.

Try to smuggle in one of her own rings which will help you to work out what would be the best fit. Or try one of her ring on (secretly) and note which of your finger fits best. Then the jeweller can measure your finger and guess her ring size. Don’t forget that the ring can be resized afterwards to get the fit perfect.

Remember to hang on to the receipt just incase she has her heart set on something else so that you can change it over but we are pretty sure that these tips will help you to get your proposal right first time.

Style of Engagement Ring

Styles of rings are many and varied with a range of rings continually expanding as modern trends develop.  Robert Adairs take great care in choosing their rings to ensure that they can offer each customer the style of ring they want, at a price they can afford.

Platinum is very much the metal of choice at the moment, closely followed by white gold, and while most of the ladies have their hearts set on all diamonds, gemstone rings with emerald ruby and sapphire are still requested.  When it comes to a simple single diamond rings we always let the diamond do the talking only using diamonds which are cut to perfection to give the most fire and scintillation.  All qualities are available to suit every budget.  At the moment there is a trend towards a style of ring sometimes know as the halo setting.  This setting comprises a centre diamond, in any shape of cut, which is bordered by a separate row of micro set diamonds .  This setting emphasises the size of the main diamond and gives a fantastic effect of fire and sparkle, which is what a diamond should be all about.  Many settings now combine micro set diamonds in the shoulders and sides of the ring giving a lovely display and leading the eye
up to the main stones in the ring.  All of Robert Adair Jewellers Ballymena engagement rings can be supplied with matching plain or diamond set wedding rings and are available in gold, white gold, platinum and palladium.
