Engagement rings are an important part of weddings. Engagements are a time to celebrate the love between two people, and what better way to do that than with a beautiful engagement ring? Popular Engagement ring styles can be glamorous or simple, but one thing is for sure: they can be expensive. The average person will spend 1-2 months’ salary on their ring, so it’s important to ensure you get the perfect size and style for the wearer!

Some of the top choices are solitaire rings with diamond accents for a traditional look, halo rings with diamonds surrounding the center stone for a more modern feel, and channel set rings with rows of diamonds between two horizontal parallel channels for an elegant update to this classic style!

HALO STYLE ENGAGEMENT RINGS

Halo rings are a great choice for brides and grooms who want a more modern and sparkly engagement ring. The Halo Engagement ring features a single diamond or gemstone that is set in the center of the band, with one or more rows of diamonds on the sides of the stone. These diamonds can be smaller or the same size as the central stone. They draw attention to the center stone and give it the illusion of being bigger than it really is.

 

VINTAGE ENGAGEMENT RINGS

Consider Engagement Rings from or inspired by the style of Engagement Rings from the 1920s and 1930s. Many have very intricate fine details as most rings from this time period were handmade. Colored stones are also very common in Vintage Engagement Ring Styles because bold colors were very popular during that time period. Engagement Rings can also come in styles to mimic other periods, such as Engagement Rings created to look like Art Deco Rings or Victorian Engagements Rings.

SOLITAIRE ENGAGEMENT RINGS

Solitaire Engagement Rings are the most popular Engagement Ring Style because they are timeless and elegant. A Solitaire Engagement Ring has a single diamond that is set in the center of the band. This style really shows off the brilliance of the diamond or gemstone set in it. Many people like to dress up this style by adding diamond and gemstone bands on either side of the ring.
