Christmas Proposal - How To Plan The Perfect Proposal

Christmas is the one time of the year when most of our spirits are lifted, whether it’s the excitement of having the family near or the general magic that descends on our surroundings; from the frosting of the Christmas tree to the smell and warmth of the fireside after a winter walk - romance is everywhere.

There’s no better time to pop the question than at Christmas. Did you know, at the end of 2015 10,000 people were asked in a survey, what time of the year is best to propose? It turned out that nearly 40% of yearly proposals happened over the Christmas period and 31% of those happened on Christmas Eve. So if you’ve been dragging your heels, now’s the time to prepare. Christmas is just around the corner and we have some real dazzlers in our engagement ring collection for you to get your hands on, no matter what your budget or design preference that you think your partner may like.

Just take a look at our top tips for getting it right this Christmas. Design - the easiest way to determine what style of ring to go for is to look at the jewellery your partner already wears. Is it mainly gold, silver, or a mix? Is it simple, vintage, or over the top? Answer these two questions and you’ve just taken one giant leap to get the perfect ring. Here are three different styles of rings to give you a taste of what we offer.

How will you ask them? Do you organise a flash mob? Do you hire a barbershop quartet? When surveyed, women said that the best way to ask them is with a simple ‘will you marry me?’ Don’t make a big song and dance about it, just ask from the heart. Are you worried that you know absolutely nothing about diamonds? Then don’t worry; just take a look at our Diamond Guide. If you're planning on proposing to a man, we also have rings designed with men in mind. These rings are great if you feel your partner would prefer something more subtle. Worried that they’re not going to like it?

A big trend right now is promise rings. These rings are usually very affordable, and stylish and serve as a promise to replace them with one that is a little pricier. A promise ring symbolises that the heart belongs to them and that you are devoted to protecting that relationship until marriage. However, sometimes promise rings don’t always have to symbolise marriage, many couples who don’t believe in marriage also give promise rings as a symbol of a long-lasting relationship.
