The Changing Face of Engagements
Marry Me
In this day and age, the rules for getting engaged are changing.
You might be surprised to learn that it’s not uncommon for a woman to do the asking these days. What’s even more common, though, is for the couple to decide together that they intend to marry. And whoever is asking, the “Proposal” isn’t always a surprise these days- sometimes it is not even a proposal at all. Instead, the couple plans the engagement moment together. It’s not also not uncommon to include a couple’s friends and family in the proposal or engagement party process.
Woman Proposal
Even with these new trends, the classic “on bended knee” proposal is still very much alive and thriving. Plenty are still choosing this route, and the resulting unique, thoughtful, and at times extravagant, proposals fill our social media feeds. An entire industry has sprung to life, helping plan and execute proposals from the simple to the extraordinary. The Yes Girls, The Heart Bandits, Paparazzi Proposals – The list of people willing to help ensure the perfect proposal goes on and on!
Put a Ring on it? But of course.
One thing hasn’t changed. Engagement rings are still widely popular. Current trends favor Fancy Colored Diamonds and Vintage Designs.
Engagement Ring Selfie
And cue the Engagement Ring Selfie. Just search “engagement ring” on Pinterest, and you’ll find all sorts of examples. (Speaking of Pinterest, gone are the days of magazines and window shopping. Pinterest is the go-to source for all engagement ring and wedding planning research and inspiration.)
Your Love. Your Ring.
More and more, couples are choosing to create a custom ring instead of buying a ring from a chain jeweler. Custom feels more special than just walking into a store and picking something. People now want something different. A ring that’s unique or unusual but still classic and timeless; so it won’t go out of style.
