Are you ready to take the next step in your relationship and propose to your partner? Getting engaged is the first step in your marriage journey. One of the first important decisions you'll make is choosing the engagement ring. With so many options available, it can feel overwhelming.


Grace And Virtue Events has partnered with Hitched, a modern, fine jewelry company in Georgetown, Washington DC, that is changing the way that couples shop for engagement rings and wedding bands. They offer a fun, informative and low-pressure experience. They can answer all your questions regarding diamonds, metals and sizes to help you design your dream engagement ring. They have 100+ bands to choose from in a variety of metals, styles and sizes - all at affordable prices.


We're here to guide you through the process with our top three essential tips for a successful engagement ring shopping experience.



Educate Yourselves:

There is a lot to know about jewelry and rings. And there are many options. You will be encouraged to familiarize yourself with the four Cs of diamond quality: cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. Talking with an expert can assist you with understanding these factors and how they empower you to make an informed decision and ensure you're getting the best value for your spending range. There are also alternative gemstones and diamond alternatives like moissanite or lab-created diamonds that can offer excellent value and beauty. Scheduling an appointment where you both can learn about your preferences can help the shopping experience run smoothly.


Identify A Spending Range:

Before you start browsing engagement rings, it's crucial to set a budget that you're comfortable with. Engagement rings come in a wide range of prices, so determining your budget early on will help narrow down your options and prevent overspending.


Consider Customization:

Make your proposal truly special by opting for a custom-designed engagement ring. Work with a jeweler who offers customization services to create a one-of-a-kind ring that perfectly reflects your partner's personality and style. From selecting the perfect diamond or gemstone to designing the setting, customization allows you to create a ring that's as unique as your love story. This process can take at least 60 days. Even if you customize the ring together or start the process together, your partner doesn't have to know when you will propose, that can be a total surprise.





Remember, the journey to finding the perfect engagement ring should be as memorable and enjoyable as the proposal itself. With careful planning and consideration, you'll find a ring that symbolizes your love and commitment for a lifetime. Contact Hitched to schedule an appointment to learn about their engagement rings.


Happy ring shopping!
