Selecting an engagement ring is a memorable decision that embodies the promise of forever and reflects your unique love story. With countless styles, materials, and gemstones, finding the right ring may feel overwhelming, but Tobin Jewelers is here to guide you through every step.
1. Discover Their Style
Understanding your partner’s personal style can be a helpful starting point. At Tobin, we offer a wide selection of rings, including custom designs, to ensure you find a piece that matches their taste. Take note of their wardrobe and jewelry preferences—are they drawn to classic, timeless pieces, or do they prefer modern, contemporary designs? Also, consider metal preferences such as white gold, yellow gold, or rose gold. These details will help you choose a ring that feels uniquely them.
2. Select the Perfect Gemstone
While diamonds are a popular choice, Tobin also offers a variety of alternative gemstones, such as sapphires, emeralds, and rubies. For a more eco-friendly option, we provide lab-grown diamonds as well. Each gemstone has its own symbolism—sapphires represent loyalty, emeralds symbolize renewal, and rubies signify passion. The right gemstone adds a personal touch and extra meaning to the ring.
3. Set a Realistic Budget
Budgeting is an essential part of the process. While the “two months’ salary” guideline is common, the best approach is one that feels right for you. At Tobin Jewelers, our team at both our New Berlin and Mequon showrooms will work with you to find the perfect ring that fits within your budget, ensuring you can choose a ring without financial stress.
Focusing on these essentials will help you select a ring that celebrates your love story and marks the beginning of your new journey together. At Tobin Jewelers, whether you’re looking for a custom design or a beautiful ring from our collection, we’re dedicated to helping you find “the one.” Visit us at our New Berlin or Mequon locations to get started!
