A lot of couples are known to buy their engagement rings or wedding bands together or have had at least pre-shopped together so for them the choice is endless. But, if you plan to take your partner by a surprise, you need to be careful before picking up one option.

When looking for the perfect diamond engagement ring, there are a lot of things to consider. Your budget is sure going to play a significant role in your decision, but you cannot neglect the quality since the ring is as unique as your loved one. Find below, few points to consider before going down on your knees on your special day.

1. Pick a reputable jeweller: Remember that you have no experience whatsoever. Since this is the first biggest purchase you will make, you need to be assured of the genuinity. Needless to say, a reputable jewellery store is the first thing you should look for.  Speak to your close friends, family and engaged couples to find jewellers that they recommend. 

2. Plan well ahead: Consider approaching the jeweller at least a month or two if you want a custom ring made into what you exactly want and will your intended properly.

3. Pick the right gem: When choosing a diamond, you need to brush up the 4C’s about diamond that plays a major role in the quality and the cost of ring.  The  4C’s are cut, clarity, colour and weight. Now, if you want most sparkle and brilliance in the ring, then you should focus on the cut. It's proportions,  symmetry and polish can vary the look of the diamond. However, if you want the ring to be light on your pocket, look for lesser carats. Higher the carat (weight), more expensive the ring will be. 

4. Make custom rings: If you decide to personalise every aspect of your ring, then the first thing to look at when buying a loose diamond is clarity.  Most of the times, internal imperfections like small cracks, whitish dots or fine dark spots called inclusions are present.  Generally speaking, fewer the inclusions, better the quality, and worth of the diamond. 

5. Settings are important: Metal framework in which the diamond is mounted can both enhance or spoil the look.  Get the right combination of the shape of the stone and the setting is the key to getting a beautiful engagement ring.
