A wedding is the most special occasion of a person’s life. Every woman wants her wedding to be the perfect event of the year and she plans very hard to ensure perfection in every minute detail. One of the most important parts of the wedding is to pick out the right engagement ring. An engagement ring is not just an accessory that you gift each other under obligation, but it is also a symbol of your love towards each other. Mentioned below are 5 ways that will help you pick out the perfect engagement ring for your partner:

 1. Be aware of her taste in jewelry:

Every woman has her own specific taste when it comes to jewelry and it’s your job to pay attention to the kind of jewelry she already wears. This not only helps you get an idea of her taste, but you also get to know how she likes to pair her jewelry with her outfit. Ensure if she is a classic or modern? If she prefers white metals or yellow gold? Does she like her jewelry delicate or chunky? If you buy something similar to what she already likes, you can't go wrong.

 2. Be aware of her ring size:

Getting your woman a ring that doesn’t fit her finger can be counted as a major blunder. Before heading out to pick out a ring for your woman, borrow the one she already owns to stay assured of the size. If surprise is what you are planning, then simply trace the inner circle of a ring she owns, on a piece of paper, or just press the ring into a bar of soap for an impression. If you are still unsure about the ring size of your woman, then it's advisable to buy a ring a bit bigger than you think she'll need, because sizing a ring down is much easier than increasing its size.

 3. Be aware of her choice of shape and cutting style:

An engagement ring is something that your woman will be wearing for the rest of her life. Therefore, you should try to pick a ring that goes with everything from jeans to evening wear. Try to learn about her preference for diamond shape and cut, before you head out to pick her engagement ring. If you're doubtful about her diamond shape preference, it's sensible to stick to the classics, such as a round or square shape diamond ring. They became classics because they appeal to most people most of the time.
