It is an exciting experience to propose to the love of your life – but it can also be extremely nerve-wracking! Even thoroughly modern men like to make big, romantic gestures when they propose, and there is a lot of planning that goes into “popping the question.” From the time, to the place, to the speech – there are so many things to get right! An engagement and wedding could be something that a woman has dreamed about for most of her life. So it is up to her partner to make sure that everything lives up to her expectations!

One of the hardest aspects of proposing to a lady is choosing the engagement ring. There are countless options out there, however the most traditional and popular is the diamond ring. This is a timeless and classic piece of jewellery that will be treasured for years to come and passed down through the family. The significance of the diamond ring dates back to the Middle Ages, when it became fashionable for the very rich to give a diamond ring to signify an engagement. In modern times diamond rings can be much more affordable, with a style and price to suit almost everybody.

However, what do you do if you want to give your partner something truly special and unique to mark your engagement? It is possible to create your own engagement ring design, using loose diamonds. This emerging trend will leave you with a beautiful and unique ring for the woman in your life. The trend started to grow in popularity after it was revealed that actor Brad Pitt designed the rings for his highly publicised wedding to Jennifer Aniston.

Since then men from all walks of life have sought to make the special occasion even more special with a diamond ring of their own design. You can achieve this yourself with a bit of careful planning. The ring you come up with will be something that reflects your partner’s tastes perfectly – and this will show that you have an intimate knowledge of her personality and what she likes.

If you have no design experience it is best to take your idea to a professional jewellery designer and work with them on creating the perfect diamond ring out of your loose diamonds. A professional designer will work with you to create something that is a true reflection of your partner.
