How To Propose Without An Engagement Ring

Proposing without an engagement ring is not unheard of and is something many of our customers do. Sometimes the moment may be so perfect that it’s impossible not to grasp the opportunity, regardless of ring or not. And so the search comes after. But, finding your partner’s ‘perfect’ engagement ring can be such a stressful task especially when you have nothing to work with. Some people subtly hint about their dream ring, whereas others may never have touched on the subject. So starting from scratch can be a daunting task for the proposer!

Reaching Perfection With Bespoke

When a person feels it’s the right time to pop the question they get in touch with one of our designers to commission a bespoke engagement ring.  If they only have a few ideas or even none at all, we can design something completely personal. Perhaps we can incorporate specific inspiration such as from a favourite holiday or the place they first met– the possibilities are endless. Once we’ve sketched some potential designs during the consultation the majority of customers are happy with the final creation and want to get started straight away.

Of course,  others can still unsure if they have made the right decisions. They may be unsure about whether their partner will love the overall design. Or they may question if they’ve chosen the perfect shade of pink for their partner’s longed for morganite engagement ring. If there is any doubt of this kind then a Bespoke Proposal Pack is a great solution.

A proposal gift box is a wonderful way to involve your partner in the design of a bespoke engagement ring. The presentation box will contain handwritten cards showing your consultation date and introducing you to your jewellery designer. It might also include personalised hand drawn sketches to start off your design to show your partner the ideas you have already come up with. It may also contain your chosen gemstone that you want featured in the final design.  After the presentation, couples then love coming into one of our studios and shops together. There’s something special about experiencing the consultation and design process together.

Continuing tradition with heirloom jewellery

Many people love the idea of a brand new engagement ring and the special process of commissioning or buying a unique piece.  However, others may have always dreamt of proposing with an inherited family ring so that they can continue to pass it on through each generation. Sometimes people then commission a new bespoke ring inspired by the original family piece.

Whether you are proposing with an inherited ring, a gemstone, a proposal gift box or even a famous ring shaped sweetie…it’s the engagement itself that’s the most important!
