The holidays are quickly approaching, which also means proposal season is right around the corner. It\u2019s likely that you\u2019ve heard the commonly-stated guideline that your budget for an engagement ring should equal two months salary; however, that\u2019s not usually the case. Everyone\u2019s budget is different regardless of salary, and there are many ways to score the ring of your partner\u2019s dreams without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n

Forget the two-months rule<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rule that mentions you must save at least two-months salary to purchase an engagement ring is a complete myth. Although this is a valuable investment, it’s imperative for you to stay friendly to your budget. Only you know what you can afford so don’t allow anyone to pressure you into spending more than you’re comfortable with.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t skimp on the cut<\/strong><\/p>\n

As you ring shop, there are the four C\u2019s in diamond shopping that you must keep in mind: cut, color, clarity and carat. As all four are important, but the cut is the most critical due to how it determines the diamond\u2019s visual beauty. A well-cut diamond will have that intense sparkle and fire you are looking for, so make sure your decision is based on more than size alone.<\/p>\n

Consider a non-traditional setting or shape<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brides who aren\u2019t traditional and prefer a modern engagement ring may want something unique that speaks to their personality. Gemstones, bands with color, non-conventional shapes, etc. not only add character to a ring but can also reduce the cost compared to a traditional, diamond ring.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be afraid to downsize<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bigger is not always better in some cases. Buying a one-carat diamond is typically a standard for many couples; however, most people cannot tell the difference between a slightly smaller diamond. If you prefer a bigger look for less, explore the cluster and multi-top styles. For couples staying budget-friendly, these are both cost effective options worth considering.<\/p>\n

Check the return policy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whether you realize that you want to go with a different style or perhaps your partner just doesn\u2019t love the ring, ensure that you have options. The good news is a reputable jeweler will have a return or exchange policy, so be sure you fully understand these policies before making your purchase.<\/p>\n
