What If My Partner Doesn’t Like the Engagement Ring?
It’s one of the biggest fears many men have when planning a proposal: “What if she doesn’t like the engagement ring?” I understand this can be a stressful thought, but at Morgan & Co, we’re here to make sure that doesn’t happen. Choosing the perfect ring is an art, especially when it comes to something as personal as an engagement ring. There are countless factors to consider—style, diamond shape, and perhaps most importantly, the metal colour.
Book your complementary consultation with our bespoke team.
Getting the Metal Right
The metal you choose for the ring is often a crucial detail that can make or break your partner’s reaction. It’s easy to focus on the diamond, but the band’s metal is just as significant, especially to a woman who wears jewellery regularly. The wrong metal colour can clash with her skin tone, the jewellery she already wears, or even the watch she loves. Choosing a metal that feels off can make her feel like you haven’t paid attention to these little details about her, which can be disheartening.
This is where many men find themselves stumped. You might not have noticed what metal she prefers—whether it’s yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, or platinum. Don’t worry, though, because we’ll help you figure this out. At Morgan & Co, we take the time to ask you for photos of your partner to understand her skin tone, what jewellery she wears regularly, and the style she gravitates toward. We’ll guide you through this process so that you feel confident in your decision, but we’ll also keep things as discreet as possible.
What If You’re Still Unsure?
Here’s our promise to you: if your partner doesn’t love her engagement ring or isn’t happy with the metal colour, we will remake it, free of charge. We’ve done this before when the metal choice wasn’t quite right or if she decided she wasn’t a fan of certain design elements—like diamonds on the band, for instance. You can feel reassured knowing that we have your back in making sure the ring is absolutely perfect.
Steps We Take to Ensure She Loves the Ring
To make sure your partner is thrilled with the ring, we take a few steps to get things just right —
-
Thorough Stalk of Her Social Media: We’ll review any photos of her wearing jewellery to understand her style and preferences.
-
Ask Lots of Questions: We’ll ask about her current jewellery, what kind of rings she likes, and any comments she’s made about other people’s engagement rings.
-
Look at Photos of Her Hands: By seeing her hands and fingers, we can recommend the best diamond shapes and styles that will flatter her hands.
-
Get Family or Friends Involved: If you’re unsure or feeling overwhelmed, we can work with a trusted friend or family member who knows her style well. This can provide invaluable insight into what she will love.
-
Offer Alternative Proposal Options: If you’re still feeling uncertain, there’s no need to worry. You could propose with a placeholder ring, or simply with the diamond itself, then design the ring together after she says "yes." This takes the pressure off and allows her to have a say in the final design.
