The budget you decide on for an engagement is a personal decision. There are many schools of thought on this: for example, some say you should spend around two months worth of your salary. But truthfully when buying an engagement ring, there is no one-size-fits-all budget. Instead, find a style and price that you both love and feel comfortable with, and the decision on how much to spend on a wedding ring will come easily.
In most cultures, the engagement ring is worn on the fourth finger of your left hand. People used to believe that a vein from this finger ran directly to the heart, making this finger an ideal symbol for love and marriage. However, you can wear your wedding ring on any finger that has meaning.
It’s a bit risky to buy an engagement ring online, which is why we don’t recommend it. Instead, we suggest discovering your preferences by browsing online and then visiting an authorized reseller to view your ring in store before making a purchase. An engagement ring is a big investment, and we always recommend taking the time and effort to do extensive research before making a final decision.
The number of carats in your engagement ring will depend on the style and budget you’ve set aside to purchase the ring. Carats are not the only element that should be taken into consideration – you’ll also want to consider metals, setting and band style.
Traditionally, one partner (typically the groom-to-be) will plan the proposal and engagement ring as a surprise. However, an engagement ring is a once-in-a-lifetime purchase that should be made carefully and thoughtfully. Many couples choose to go through the process together to make sure the ring is perfect, in terms of both style and budget. If the groom-to-be wants a stress-free surprise proposal, our Shop Confidently Program® offers to exchange a registered engagement ring within one year of purchase for another of equal or higher value.
While engagement rings have traditionally included a diamond center stone, the perfect ring is a matter of personal preference. There are stunning options and gemstones available to fit every style and taste.

THINGS TO CONSIDER:
Whether you plan to make the selection together or keep it a surprise, the preference of the lady love should assume utmost priority. Consider her aesthetic inclination – vintage, modern, traditional, or classic. Solitaires are an inarguable favorite, but a growing predilection for oval, cushion-cut, and emerald cut engagement rings in recent times cannot be denied. Be exact with the ring size – considering the slight changes that may be feasible to incorporate in the future. If your woman holds a preference for other precious gemstones apart from diamonds, be considerate to accommodate that, only keeping in mind that the colored diamonds may be significantly expensive than their colorless counterparts. Lastly, quality and warranty are sacrosanct attributes that are key to such luxury purchases. Each engagement ring at Gabriel & Co. bears a ‘Certificate of Authenticity’ with a unique serial number inscribed on the inside of the ring.
CHOOSING THE PERFECT ENGAGEMENT RING:
Begin by choosing your preferred style between the nine different styles/settings of engagement rings - Halo, Double Halo, Three Stone, Straight, Solitaire, Three Stone Halo, Free Form, Wideband, and Split Shank. These styles cover all the aesthetic preferences ranging from classic minimalism to grandiose maximalism. Our aim is to curate jewelry that is a stunning adornment piece yet highlights and complements a woman’s personality and distinctive identity.
Next, the choice of metal can make a huge difference to the final appeal of the engagement ring. A Yellow Gold finish reflects traditional tastes and remains a captivating combination with diamonds just as much in the modern designs as in the traditional settings. Rings with a Platinum or White Gold finish look sleek and sexy – an elegant bridge from the classic to the contemporary. A Rose Gold finish gives a ring a vintage, romantic feel with an understated glamour that is hard to miss. Finally, a mix and match of the metals create a unique look that can undoubtedly initiate conversations around fashion and style.
One may also look at the inclusion of shimmering precious stones like emerald, sapphire, rubies, and more in their engagement ring to add more undertones of colorful resplendence to their ring.
