With our stomachs full and an abundance of gratitude from Thanksgiving yesterday, we now officially start the holiday season! The holidays bring lots of proposals and that means lots of engagement rings! As wedding planners, we couldn’t be more anxious to begin receiving the overwhelming number of e-mails from giddy, soon-to-be brides & grooms ready to jump on the planning bandwagon! And boy are we ready to join them on this exciting journey!

Of course, before that journey begins it takes a the perfect someone to select that perfect something…a little sparkle to commemorate the lifelong commitment of two soulmates. We’re diving into the never-ending list of different engagement rings and picking our favorites to date!

ENGAGEMENT RINGS WE LOVE

Solitaire Engagement Rings: Clean & Classic

There’s something to be said about simplicity in engagement rings. We love all the shapes (round, oval, emerald, marquise, princess, cushion cut, pear, radiant) and sizes of a solitaire but we are slightly obsessing over oval recently. *Insert heart eyes.*

Halo Engagement Rings: A Fashionable Statement

Adding a little bling to help enhance the center stone is called a “halo,” which we think is eye-catching. I mean, who wouldn’t want to add a little extra sparkle?

Vintage Engagement Rings: A Family Heirloom

A vintage ring doesn’t mean it was passed down from generation to generation, but its style will make it appear so. We love the idea of a ring that’s been in your family but if there’s not one to be had, you can create it!

Don’t even get us started on the options for wedding bands these days. We will save that for another post!

What is your very favorite engagement ring? Show us on Facebook or Instagram! We’d love to see what makes you swoon.
