Guys, Here’s Why You Need to Design Her a Custom Engagement Ring
“Insist upon yourself. Be original.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson
OK fellas, listen up. You probably already know this, but you have a very special lady on your hands. She’s original. Unique. One-of-a-kind. In a sea of conformity, she emerges an individual. After all, that’s surely why you fell in love with her. Her confidence in her own being is what attracted you most.
(Propose with an engagement ring that’s as unique as her. Read on for why a custom creation like the Morgan’s diamond halo and main sapphire stone are a must have for jewelry.)
At Abby Sparks Jewelry, we have nothing but love for this connection that’s formed between the both of you. And now that it’s come the time for you two to merge into one beautiful unity, we see it right that you commemorate your adoration to the fullest.
Your stand out gal requires a stand out engagement ring. And that isn’t something you can find at any ol’ regular big box store. Oh no.
For those that express an independent spirit, we suggest going the custom design route for her engagement ring.
(Our Custom Design Process goes a little something like this: consultation, sketch, CAD model, and the ring is soon to be your’s. Simple, huh?)
Custom engagement rings allow for every lady to rock her personality and style right on her finger. Never duplicated, a custom engagement ring symbolizes her and her only. Sound too good to be true? We promise it’s not. And we’ve got all the proof of why you should venture to the side of custom design.
Read on for the 5 reasons why you need to design her a custom engagement ring!
1. She Can Have Anything and Everything She Wants
Treat her like a queen! The greatest benefit of choosing custom vs. customized engagement rings is that custom grants full agency. Anything she can imagine on her dream engagement ring is within reach.
With a gorgeous blend of stone, metal, setting, and small details like engraving or accent gems, your love story gets told without a word needing to be spoken.
(Right: delicate and feminine, the Alexa features a 1 carat diamond with pear cut accent stones set on platinum metal. Polished off with a prong sitting and a special inside engraving. Left: The JanMarie combines a strikingly blue 3 carat topaz contrasted against a yellow gold band.)
Whether she favors a classic ring look like diamonds on a platinum band, a la the Alexa above, or resonates with a more alternative engagement ring like one made with a gemstone like the Janmarie, any element she prefers is her’s for the taking.
With our custom design process, we move beyond the typical and cater to every little detail of the bride-to-be’s desires. Check out our field guide for the full breakdown on the various aspects to keep in mind when designing an engagement ring. From her center stone, to metal choice, and the accents that really make it shine (think halos, stone clusters, prong vs. bezel displays, and many more) the sky’s the limit with possibilities.
2. You Can Actually Stick to a Budget
(How do you plan your budget? Design her custom engagement ring with countless diamonds, or save money on the stone and spruce up the band. The choice is up to you.)
There’s nothing worse than when you spot an awesome engagement ring, only to be crushed by an alarming price tag. With standard ‘point-and-buy’s or customized rings, usually the fee stays stagnant with no room for compromise. Though custom design sometimes gets the label as being more expensive, in all actuality it can be more cost efficient. Custom creating with a designer at Abby Sparks Jewelry entails working around your budget while including everything you’re seeking out on a ring. You get to decide what elements of the ring your money goes towards. If you want the center stone to steal the show, save on a lower priced metal. Or, just as well, there are ways to make your diamond appear bigger and brighter without having to shell out too much of your paycheck towards it.
So, it seems you’ve got more control of what you’re spending your money on. If you’d like to simply know how much you should be spending on the engagement ring, read more about it with our blog post here. You’ve got your mind on the money and the money on your mind, so we can help construct an engagement ring that won’t break the bank.
3. Heirloom Pieces Can Finally Be Put to Good Use
Remember when Grandma gave you her old diamond engagement ring for Christmas? Let’s face it, you probably threw it in the back of the top drawer to your dresser. Well, it doesn’t have to go to waste any longer. Old stones and metal can be converted into new engagement ring that matches your love’s aesthetic.
Repurposing jewelry is both an ethical and economical route to take. You’ll save money towards the cost of newstones when you choose to repurpose jewelry. In addition, the gem from the previous family piece means one less rock has to undergo the toll that mining can have on the earth. When you work with Abby Sparks Jewelry, we will recycle your heirloom jewelry’s metal and give you a metal credit valued towards your custom engagement ring. The custom engagement ring will carry on tradition and an intriguing backstory. Your ring will stun with both its appearance and by such heartfelt meaning, too!
