There are few things that you will buy in life that you will put as much care and thought into as the purchase of an engagement ring. Searching online will turn up hundreds of thousands of articles dedicated just to the topic of how to find the perfect gold wedding rings for your fiancé.

The most important thing to remember when you begin the searching process is that there is only one person you are trying to please: your bride-to-be. The engagement ring is meant to speak to only one person, the one who you want to spend the rest of your life with.

For this reason, some people may choose to go with a large diamond engagement ring, others may opt for a stone that has more meaning for them like a sapphire or emerald stone. Others may choose a gold engagement ring with no stones at all.

If you are looking at a diamond engagement ring and you are not familiar with the four C’s of the diamond jewellery industry, you may want to familiarise yourself soon. You will have to take into consideration the cut, ...
... clarity, colour, and carat weight of the diamond. This will have a huge impact on the price of the ring so researching is important.

Cut- Popular cuts of most diamonds for diamond engagement rings include princess cut, round brilliant cut, and marquise cut.
Clarity- When it comes to clarity of the diamond, the closer to perfect, the more you will expect to pay. For a nearly flawless diamond you can expect to pay a lot of money. For a diamond with a slight colour variation to it, you will get a larger diamond for a lot less money. The choice is yours.
Colour- While colourless or white diamonds are the most common diamonds for engagement rings, you will also find yellow diamonds, pink diamond, blue diamonds, and even black diamonds being substituted for white diamonds.
Carat- Depending on what your research online will turn up, you will find that the size of the diamond isn’t as important as the actual engagement ring itself. For some people size does matter. For that you will find that many jewellery designers will say that a one carat diamond is the most popular sized stone for engagement rings.
