GUIDE TO YOUR ENGAGEMENT RING BUDGET

Guide to Your Engagement Ring Budget

The process of choosing a perfect engagement ring that will align with the bride's style and symbolize the couple's love story can be a complicated one that requires a clear understanding of your budget limits. Several factors influence the price of an engagement ring, including metal type, setting style, diamond shape, and designer. Each choice impacts both cost and aesthetic, and requires you to do a bit of research before landing on the ring that best suits your needs. At Morgan Jewelers with stores in Utah, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Washington, and Oregon, we offer a diverse selection to fit every price range, ensuring you can select a ring that meets your expectations without compromising on quality or style.

Consider Material and Ring Setting

The choice of metal and setting plays a crucial role in an engagement ring’s design and durability. Yellow gold exudes warmth and classic appeal, making it a timeless favourite. Meanwhile, white gold offers a sleek, modern finish that enhances a diamond’s brilliance. Rose gold’s romantic hue provides a vintage-inspired yet contemporary aesthetic, while platinum is cherished for its strength, rarity, and hypoallergenic properties. Solitaire engagement ring settings highlight a single stone with elegance and simplicity. For those who seek additional sparkle, consider halo designs that surround the center stone with brilliance, creating a dazzling effect. Alternatively, captivating side stone rings add extra shimmer along the band, while three stone styles gracefully symbolize a couple’s past, present, and future.

Choose a Diamond and Designer Ring

Another important factor that determines a ring's price is the center diamond shape and the designer's reputation. Round cut diamonds, the most popular and classical cut, provide maximum brilliance but are also the most expensive. Meanwhile, emerald and oval cuts offer distinctive elegance at a lower cost per carat. If you seek something extraordinary, consider pear shaped rings with their graceful teardrop silhouette. For example, A.JAFFE's Metropolitan Collection features modern designs at various price ranges with double halos and diamond-heavy bands, ideal for those seeking brilliance. Love Story’s three stone rings celebrate love’s journey, available in delicate rose gold or striking halo styles. Lastly, our in-house Morgan’s Collections include vintage-inspired floral halos and classic white gold designs at affordable prices.
