How Do You Find Her Ring?

Congrats you found your soulmate!  You know what comes next.  You need to find her ring! Which ring works for her? Where it’s going to happen, what you’re going to say, how you’re going to keep it a secret from her, and – of course –  which engagement rings to buy.

There may be some anxiety about the engagement ring.  Let’s face it: it’s not something you typically buy and you likely feel way out of your comfort zone.  But buying her the perfect ring doesn’t have to be stressful.  Consider these tips on how to make the best decision possible.

1. Go into stealth mode:  It’s time to to secretly discover what kind of jewelry she generally likes. What’s her style?  The best way to approach this step is to sneak into her bedroom and look at the jewelry she already owns.  Take a camera with you and snap some photos of the items in her jewelry box, particularly her rings.  Make sure you get some good close-ups.
2. Get into the loop:  If you’re going for a “complete surprise” approach you may have to think about who to include (or not include) in this step, but the goal here is to talk those people in her life who know her best, particularly those people who know her sense of style.  Connect with her mother, her sisters, her best friends and ask them what they think she’d like.  Visit the Schwanke-Kasten Jewelers website and review the engagement rings together to help with the process.
3. She knows what she likes:  You may be in a situation where she know’s it coming.  Perhaps the surprise isn’t IF you’re going to ask the “big question,” but WHEN and HOW.  If this is the case you may want to consider letting her give you some input and suggestions about the engagement ring.  Go window browsing together and show her the engagement rings at one of our Schwanke-Kasten locations, and let her give you some ideas about what she likes (and doesn’t like).
