Engagement rings are one of those things that must be done right the first time, because there just might not be a second chance. No undo, no take backs.This isn't a plant or a coffee table, something that would be replaced or returned, this is the item - displayed for all to see from now until eternity.She's worth it? Right? Of course, or we wouldn't be having this conversation!So what do you get someone who's going to be keeping one of those engagement rings for the rest of her life?You want her display to the rest of the world that she's "off the market", taken, unavailable.
There are many sizes, styles, and colors of engagement rings, of course. And how do you know the size? One way is to print off a ring sizing sheet, and when the house is empty - find a ring finger ring worn currently in the last few weeks and slip the sizing sheet inside it, mystery solved.It's been recommended that engagement rings not be put in food or other unique items, as common sense would indicate, as the retrieval of such would be less than romantic if things went awry.Years ago, a friend of mine went to the trouble of having the nicest of engagement rings placed in a custom chocolate Easter egg, and when the time came, she said she wasn't hungry! (not knowing what was inside of course).
They're still married with count 'em - 6 kids.A girl often measures the amount of love her man has for her, in addition to how well he knows her, by the size and style of the engagement ring.Her status is also measured by her peers and others of her species in the female animal kingdom by the size and quality of said engagement ring. Primitive, I know, as sophisticated the women are supposed to be these days... but big shiny expensive objects bring out their animal instincts. (Flowers sent to her employment also fall into this category).As much as you want to impress her, you must stay in your means.
Starting a new life off on the right foot may be a big key to a happy life.Presenting your best choice of all the engagement rings you could find is an entirely different adventure all on its own...Classy is always a good way to go, cheesy or un-thought-out, could insult her and hurt your chances, or potentially annihilate it altogether.Unless you are absolutely certain it's something she would really like.
A surprise 'party' engagement is included in the potentially-hazardous-idea department. She might say yes in front of a crowd, but recant later.If you're not completely 100% convinced, stay with classy - nice restaurant, good food or even better a candle-lit dinner at home (You cook, or order in HER favourite), for "no" interruptions, shut the phones off.So what's an example of cheesy? Let's put it this way...this isn't the time to go to the football game, scarf down some hotdogs and plaster the proposal on the jumbo-tron.Everyone's engagement rings' proposal evening is like a mini-wedding- it's all about her, what she likes all the way around.Remember, how special she feels at the moment of proposal (or not) and the engagement ring, will carry with her (and you) throughout the rest of her, and your, lives.
