Gone are the days when only women wore engagement rings. Every day more and more men are proudly sporting one to show the world “I’m about to get hitched!”
However, there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach to picking the right one. If you’re in the market for a men’s engagement ring, keep reading. That way you’ll be sure to pick out the perfect one to make the man of your dreams say “yes”!
How to choose the right ring
While it’s true, your man will likely love whatever ring you pick out for him, you want to try to get one he would have picked for himself, right?
Here are a few top tips to help you figure out which engagement ring you should get for your man:
- Just ask. If you’ve been talking about getting married for a while and it’s a not if but when sort of scenario, then there’s no harm in asking your future fiancé what sort of ring style he likes best. That doesn’t mean he has to pick one out, you can still make it a surprise, but it might give you a better starting point.
- Look at how he dresses. How does your guy dress when he doesn’t have a uniform he needs to wear? Does he prefer dressing casually in jeans and t-shirts? Does he prefer a nice button-down? Does he like to switch between being dressed up and being dressed down? The way your man dresses and likes to present himself can really help you figure out the type of ring that will most naturally fit his general style and vibe.
- Bring some backup. There’s a reason why you always see men bring along reinforcements when they’re buying engagement rings for their girlfriends. That’s because sometimes having an extra pair or two of eyes can really help. You’re likely to feel a lot of pressure to make the perfect choice, which can cloud your judgment. Having help with you can give you some much-needed perspective and keep you from overthinking things too much. Bringing someone close to your hopeful fiancé and someone close to you is the perfect combination to make the ultimate choice.
Don’t overthink it! Your man loves you and you love him! When you’re freaking out about picking a ring, take a deep breath, try to stay calm, and let that guide you towards the right ring for him!
