Almost all over the world there is a wonderful tradition before the wedding, which is called engagement. It can be carried out long before the upcoming marriage or just a couple of months before the legal marriage. The event is very responsible and serious, so on this day everything should be perfect: flowers, a romantic dinner, gifts. Preparing for this day requires paying close attention to the most important accessory - the ring.
You must choose an engagement ring so that it impresses not only you, but also your other half. When choosing a ring, you should not pay attention to the price, because it is not just a decoration, but a symbol of love and happiness, and happiness, as you know, has no price. It can be a rather modest decoration - its value is not in value, but in symbolism. The gleam in the eyes of a sweetheart receiving an engagement ring is the key to your future shared happiness.
A good, bright and kind tradition has recently become more and more popular. This idea came to us from the West, where before the wedding a ring was put on the ring finger . The engagement was considered to have taken place if the girl took the ring from the hands of her lover. On the wedding day, the hand ring was traditionally removed and was never worn again, being considered a girl's attribute. A married woman should have worn another ring.
What should engagement rings look like? As a rule, these are thin gold items with a diamond or other precious stones. Decorations for this holiday of a completely new type have appeared in the modern world. Their feature is that they are combined with wedding ones. This means that the ring consists of two parts, one of which is given for the engagement, and the second on the wedding day. Both individually and together, these rings look just great. Despite the fact that gold comes in different colors, from yellow to black, it’s customary to give a ring of yellow color to the engagement, as a symbol of happiness and prosperity.
If it is customary to choose wedding rings together, then the engagement ring is chosen independently. The future wife should make a surprise and it is very important not to make a mistake with the size. How to determine size? The simplest and best option would be your girl’s usual ring. Unbeknownst to her, for one day, under some pretext, take it and take it to a jewelry workshop. Specialists can easily determine the size of this jewelry and tell it to you. Thus, engagement rings will be much easier to choose.
You can also circle the girl’s ring on paper or try putting it on your fingers and determine which one it sits on as conveniently as possible. Jewelry experts at your finger will be able to determine the required ring size
Today, many girls, when they receive an engagement ring, prefer to put it on their right hands, and on the wedding day they rearrange them on their left. Some people prefer to wear a wedding decoration on top of the first ring on their wedding day. Therefore, it is worthwhile to inquire and learn about the intentions of your future wife so that the gift made looks beautiful not only in the palm of your hand, but also on the girl’s finger.
It is also necessary to remember that the desired size or shape of the ring may not be in the cabin, so it will have to be made to order. The average time required to make the jewelry is 5-14 days, depending on the workload of the jewelry salon in which you will order the ring. Engagement means not only a gift, but also an original declaration of love. Feel free to be unique! Come up with some interesting story, the ending of which will serve as a ring on the finger of your beloved. Believe that the girl will be in seventh heaven with happiness, and the engagement day will be remembered for many years. And the last advice - on the long-awaited and solemn day, the main thing is not to confuse that the engagement rings are worn on the ring finger.
