When a man has made the decision to propose to the woman in his life, there will be a million and one thoughts racing through his mind; the most pressing one will probably be, will she say yes?! However, another important consideration will be the type of ring that he chooses, as this is integral to the entire proposal.

Without the right guidance it can be a veritable minefield of shapes, sizes, not to mention price tags, as picking the best ring to suit your purposes is a tricky business. Some men will have the useful guidance of their future wife actually choosing the ring for them, yet for the unlucky many out there, here are some tips on choosing the best engagement ring.
It may be tempting to blow as much as you can on the ring, yet this might not leave you with enough for a honeymoon, so the first thing to sort out is how much you are willing to spend on the engagement ring.
Traditionally, it is thought that two months salary is a good guide as to how much you should spend on an engagement ring, although it can be safely assumed that your fiancee would not complain if you spent a little more…!
Pick a reasonable bracket that you are willing to spend within and try to stick to that as much as possible; of course, if a real bargain comes up then you should definitely snap it up immediately and on the other hand, if there is a ring that you are aware of that would make your fiancee overjoyed that is a little out of your price range, then it is probably worth saving for.
Once you have decided on your price range, it’s time to get researching; compare the entire market, from thrift shops to fancy jewellers and consider every ring going. A useful little tip is that real bargains can now be found in online jewellers, with many sites offering discounts for buying online.
To narrow down the options for engagement rings, try and find out what type of metal your future wife likes the most; this can be done by rooting through her jewellery collection or confiding in one of her friends and getting her to act as a spy…just make sure you can really trust them not to spill the beans.
Finally, the most important element of choosing an engagement ring is that your whole heart goes into it; this may sound very cheesy and a little ‘Hollywood’, but if you put as much love, care and attention into picking the ring as you have put into your relationship, then there is no doubting that you will make the right choice.
