Tips for Affording the Perfect Engagement Ring from the Experts at Beard’s Diamonds
Becoming engaged is one of the most exciting times in a couple’s lives. Shopping for the perfect engagement ring to represent your eternal love for each other can be both exciting and challenging. Finding a ring that’s both affordable and beautiful is not always easy. Beard’s Diamonds wants to help you find the best of both worlds.
We want to share our tips for finding stunning engagement rings at affordable prices. Additionally, we have put together a list of our top five preset engagement rings that will delight any loved one without breaking the bank.
Consider More Affordable Diamond Shapes
The shape of the diamond is an important consideration when choosing an affordable engagement ring. Lower the price tag by selecting one of the less expensive diamond cuts, like Asscher or Emerald cuts, which are square and rectangular in shape. Conversely, round, pear and oval-shaped diamonds are more expensive simply because more wastage occurs during the cutting process.
If your special someone does not have their heart set on one particular shape, select a less expensive cut, they are just as beautiful!
Know the Best Time of Year to Shop
Another tip for affording the perfect engagement ring is to shop during the slow season. Typically, engagement ring sales drop in September and October, meaning that retailers often offer reduced prices in an attempt to draw in customers.
Many retailers also offer sales around Black Friday, Christmas, New Year’s, and Valentine’s Day. Love is patient and couples who wait for the best time of year to shop will be sure to find the affordable engagement ring of their dreams.
