An engagement ring can be given as a Christmas gift or a proposal can be included in some winter activities.

Engagement ring - how to choose the most suitable one?

In order not to make a mistake with an engagement ring, you can always choose a classic - a gold ring with one stone, a diamond, the size of which everyone can choose according to their financial capabilities, or some other natural semi-precious stone. Also, heart-shaped rings are always relevant. No matter what kind of ring you have in mind for your beloved, GIVEN always has a wide range of engagement rings available, from which you can choose something for every taste.

As this year's novelty, two collections - Stardust and Moissanite - have arrived in GIVEN stores, from which engagement rings are often chosen. Both collections are sustainable, featuring man-made and lab-grown diamonds. They have the quality and hardness of classic natural diamonds, but can be purchased at a more affordable price. The advantage of these collections is that you can buy a ring with a larger stone at a friendlier price.

According to the representatives of GIVEN, in Latvia, most people choose classic diamonds, but the interest in artificial diamonds of this new collection is gradually growing. Especially from young people who have lived in America and other parts of the world where this type of ring is popular. Other types of rings are also chosen as engagement rings, such as gold rings with a band of diamonds or gold rings with several small diamonds in a shape. Another more affordable option are gold rings with zirconia, which also resembles a white shiny eye, but is an artificial stone. Of course, there are individual couples who will think and buy a different type of natural stone, for example, in the shape of a heart, thus proving their love.

GIVEN's offer is wide, you just have to choose the one that matches your loved one's taste and style. Any engagement ring chosen for a Christmas or New Year's Eve proposal will sparkle beautifully and suit the bride-to-be.

Engagement ring size and price

The question that those who intend to propose to their beloved often puzzle over is how to determine the size of the engagement ring and how much should be spent on it. GIVEN representatives recommend coming to the jewelry salon with a different ring that the lady is wearing. Then it will be measured on the spot and the right ring will be fitted. Another option is to measure the diameter of the ring and then find an engagement ring in the store in the appropriate size. If, however, the purchased ring does not fit perfectly, keeping the receipt and product quality tag, it is possible to exchange it for another size within 14 days, or if the deadline is missed, it is possible to contact the jewelers and talk about the options for increasing or reducing the ring.

There is also the option of choosing an engagement ring together. Sometimes ladies have given hints about the type and style of the ring. Also, customers have come to GIVEN with a known model and size, which have been seen together in advance.

When it comes to the budget, everything depends on financial possibilities and wishes. GIVEN has engagement rings available in a wide range of prices. For example, gold rings with zirconia are available from 90 euros. In the December special collection, you can buy a gold ring with a diamond from 216 euros. In order to buy exactly the ring you want, you can plan the purchase of an engagement ring ahead of time and make this purchase when the stores have promotional offers.

The best Christmas gift - jewelry set

If you want to pamper your loved one especially, GIVEN can also create jewelry sets. It is possible to coordinate jewelry in any private label collection. If another type of jewelry from the same series is not available for one of the jewelry, that's okay, because nowadays it is very important to match different jewelry to your liking.

You can present jewelry both together with the engagement ring and separately, if you are not yet mature for this step. In any case, every woman will be happy to receive a sparkling jewelry set for the holidays.

An unforgettable proposal for Christmas or New Year's Eve

Once the ring is chosen, it remains to plan the proposal. Fortunately, winter offers many scenarios for inspiration - from a romantic evening by the fireplace to a surprise in the snow. The ring can also be hidden in a gift or presented on Christmas morning.

On the other hand, the proposal on New Year's Eve will be not only festive, but also symbolic. The new year is a new beginning and is there any more special way to start it than in the new status - as a future bride and groom. In addition, a proposal at the end of the year can be connected with reflections on what we have experienced together, expressing both gratitude and joy for everything that has passed, as well as the desire to spend the future life together.

A proposal during the holidays will give it a special meaning and endow it with beautiful memories. And as mentioned, the holiday season creates romantic vibes and offers countless special moments to present the engagement ring and pop that important question. Walking in a snow-covered forest, drinking tea on the shore of the frozen sea or under the night starry sky - you will definitely know which moment is the most suitable.

What to consider when planning a proposal for the holidays

While there are undoubtedly many benefits to the holiday season, there are a few nuances to consider. You have to start by understanding what your loved one might like and what not. Maybe you shouldn't propose at Christmas dinner in front of the whole family if your loved one doesn't like being the center of attention. Most often, however, brides-to-be like to propose in private, when they are single.

It is very important to plan the right moment for the proposal. Make sure the moment is leisurely and both of you can let your emotions flow freely. The place is also important - it should be special, beautiful and one where you can stay for a while even after the disturbing question has been asked. Of course, also think about the weather if you plan to propose outside.

Often couples want to capture the proposal in photo and video as well. You can try and arrange a photographer who will unobtrusively capture the moment of the proposal, but most often couples choose to arrange an engagement photo session after the proposal. Accordingly, it can be kept in a festive mood by incorporating Christmas themes and decorations.

The key to an excellent proposal - the perfect ring

Do not underestimate the importance of an engagement ring - it is not just an ornament, it is a symbol of your love. With a beautiful ring that matches the taste of your beloved, the proposal will definitely succeed. Go to GIVEN, where you can choose the right ring from a wide range, as well as listen to the recommendations of professionals. Don't forget to think about the way to present the engagement ring and your Christmas or New Year's Eve proposal will definitely remain in the memory of your loved one.
