Engagement rings are a sign of commitment between two people, but choosing the ring itself can be tough, even for you, so how can the man in your life know what you want if you don’t? A first step would be to do some research, look in magazines, online, on the television and browse the high street. When you find something you like, make a mental note of the cut, it could be a princess cut diamond engagement ring for example, or take a picture to help you remember what you like. If you are not sure when he will be popping the question, but are pretty sure it will be sometime in the near future, leaving these pictures casually around may serve as a subtle hint or ideas for him in regards to the styles you like!


When looking at engagement rings there are four main factors to consider, as practical and unexciting as it is, the first is budget. Knowing your budget and what you can get for your money is a good place to start, especially when looking at engagement rings as a couple. Mad About Diamonds are able to offer great value for money as we are solely an online retailer and so don’t have the typical overheads of a high street shop whilst still offering a personal service.


The stone, diamonds are the typical yet classic choice for engagement rings. Being Mad About Diamonds, we have an extensive range of diamond engagement rings for you to choose, with stones available in all shapes and sizes.
The cut, of the stone is also worth thinking about. You may prefer an emerald or square cut ring, but which ever you prefer bear in mind that you can arrange the stones in various ways, wither as solitaire or a cluster you may even consider the idea of shoulder set engagement rings.


When looking at engagement rings there is also the band itself to think about, if you wear all silver jewellery, then choosing a yellow gold band probably is not the right choice for you. This does not mean that you should have a silver band but platinum or white gold engagement rings offer alternatives.
