Custom Engagement Jewelry In NYC For Your Ceremony

By Letitia Connell


There are many ways to tell someone just how much you love them, and arguably the biggest one is to marry them. Most traditional marriages include some kind of engagement ring, and eventually a wedding band on the day of the ceremony. You could buy a mass market set of bands, or design your own. Making your own custom engagement rings in NYC lets you get a unique set that you will always be able to treasure.

Once you have made up your mind that you are going to design a custom ring, you can take one of two paths to fulfilling this goal. The first is to sketch out your idea on paper, making what is essentially a rough draft of the final look. If you only have an inkling of an idea, your jeweler can give you ideas for a completed look so that you get a unique piece that only she will have.

The other way is to take a series of classes so that by the end of the sessions, you can make the ring yourself. This is much more complicated, it involves paying for several classes and finding the time to attend them all. If you cannot make that long of a time commitment, then hiring a professional to do the actual crafting of the ring is a fantastic alternative.

After you have the idea for the look and shape of the ring, there are several decision you have to make about the size and materials you are going to use. The first has to do with the band, which is quite important. Ask yourself what color band the recipient would want. Do they wear a lot of gold or white gold jewelry, or perhaps they prefer sterling silver for a more classic look. You could even go for something a little more exotic, like rose gold or platinum.

The stone is the centerpiece of any engagement ring, so it must be chosen carefully and thoughtfully. Again, you could look at what your intended generally wears and make choices based on that. A traditional white diamond is one really great way to go, but going for colorful diamonds like canary yellow or even black can add some interest. Then there are things like rubies and emeralds to give color without the cost of a diamond.

The thickness of the wedding band is another decision you will have to make. Remember, bridges tend to wear engagement rings with a matching band, so don't go too thick or it may be uncomfortable to wear. You'll also need to know her band size.

Keep the wedding ring in mind when drawing up plans for the engagement one. Also keep in mind that the groom's ring usually matches, so think about the size and thickness of that band as well, and whether you want to embellish it with stones or not.

As if designing a customized ring and getting it made were not enough, there is still one more special touch you can do to make it personal. Consider getting an inscription inside the band. Choose a message, birthday or perhaps initials for that finishing touch.
