Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Perfect Engagement Ring

Choosing an engagement ring is one of the most meaningful and exciting purchases you'll ever make. Whether you're planning a surprise proposal or shopping together, this guide will help you feel confident every step of the way.


1. Understand Your Budget

Start by setting a comfortable budget. There's no rule on how much you should spend—what matters most is choosing a ring that fits your financial goals and shows your love. Chloe’s Jewellers offers beautiful rings for every price range.

2. Know the 4Cs of Diamonds

Understanding the 4Cs—Cut, Colour, Clarity, and Carat—is essential when buying a diamond. These factors affect both the appearance and value of the stone:

  • Cut: Impacts the brilliance and sparkle.
  • Colour: Ranges from colourless (best) to light yellow.
  • Clarity: Fewer inclusions means higher clarity.
  • Carat: Refers to the size of the diamond.

3. Pick a Style That Reflects Their Personality

Think about the recipient's lifestyle and fashion taste. Do they love vintage glamour or modern minimalism? Popular styles include solitaire, halo, and three-stone settings.

4. Choose the Right Metal

The most popular metals are:

  • Platinum: Durable and hypoallergenic.
  • White Gold: Elegant with a modern feel.
  • Yellow Gold: Classic and timeless.
  • Rose Gold: Romantic with a vintage touch.

5. Don’t Forget Ring Size

Getting the right ring size ensures comfort and avoids resizing later. If you're unsure, try borrowing a ring or using our Ring Size Guide.

6. Personalise with Engraving

Add a personal message, initials, or special date to make the ring truly unique. Chloe’s Jewellers offers free engraving on select engagement rings.

7. Ask for a Certificate

Make sure your diamond comes with a certificate from a recognised authority like GIA or IGI. All our diamonds include certification and lifetime support.
