Are you a bride-to-be who is feeling clueless about your jewelry choices? Especially,
regarding the finger rings? Well, consider that your chaos has already disappeared into fumes! Because we are here with an amazing bunch of ideas including the best
engagement ring ideas. Finger rings including the engagement ring play an
important role in showcasing your look. And, brides often ignore the significance of
this section of jewellery. We feel that you are already running late. But, have a look at
this famous quote ‘Details create the big picture’ by Sanford I Weill. So, let’s start the
hunt for the best engagement ring ideas right now!
1) A Hint of White Elegance
Are you a Christian bride in a saree with a heavily embellished blouse? We have a
sweet surprise for you! If your jewelry choice doesn’t involve gold, let’s follow the
same pattern for your finger rings too. Platinum has been trending ever since it arrived
in the wedding jewelry industry. Firstly, choose your neck-piece by coordinating it
with your outfit. At times, we might get matching earrings, rings or bangles along
with the neck-piece. But, if you didn’t go for a matching set, it’s completely alright.
All you have to do is find a suitable and edgy set of rings that balances with the outfit
and other jewelry. Also, go for a maximum of three rings and make sure that one
among the three has a loud design.
2) The Traditional Edit
.
When it comes to engagement rings, engraving the couple’s names has been a
tradition ever since 80s. Here we have come up with a simple and unisex design,
which shouts minimalism. Instead of engraving the names, some engrave their
wedding date or engagement date. However, there are numerous font designs for both
names and dates. Likewise, you can also add additional details like embedding a tiny
stone before and after the name. As a result, we arrive at a unique yet traditional
design. These rings are often called ‘wedding bands’.
3) Vintage Edition
Stone embedded diamond engagement rings are a popular western tradition. As a part
of embracing the western influence, plain wedding bands for brides were replaced
with these vintage rings. While brides wear the vintage edition, grooms stick to the
classic, plain wedding band without any engravings. However, instead of gold, the
base metal will be platinum. As a result, traditional gold bands have gone partially off
the trends lately. Similarly, several new innovations have happened within this
vintage style. Earlier, the bridal ring had one dominant huge stone. But, now it has
changed into a formation of stones or even a couple of stones.
4) A Minimal Vintage Edition
As you may notice, this is a continuation of the discussion we had above. The catch
is, here we are focusing on minimal vintage gold or platinum finger ring design.
The bride is wearing a medium sized stone embedded ring. Hence, if you are looking
for something different in the vintage edition, you have reached the perfect place to
learn about it. Most importantly, you need to choose a gold or platinum metal base.
Once you have decided that, lets jump into the unlimited gorgeous options. The size
and type of stone play an important role in this design. Therefore, you may try a
different stone instead of diamond and a unique shape instead of the cliche oval or
round ones.
5) Experiments in Temple Jewelry
Here is a call for all our traditional Kerala Hindu brides! Handling temple jewelry can
be quite challenging. Therefore, sharpen your design instincts and listen up!
Uniformity in the jewelry style and pattern can bring an impressive neatness to your
entire attire. However, excessive layering of temple jewelry can create chaos.
Therefore, mix and match your finger rings to bring out an aesthetic balance. Do not
over-accessorize your fingers since your neck pieces, earrings etc are already heavy.
Wear an intricate design on one finger in any hand. And, leave the rest of the fingers
free. Added to that, wear two or three antique finger rings on the fingers in the other
hand.
6) Mughal Beauty
.
Muslim brides often showcase a traditional Mughal touch in their wedding jewelry.
Even though brides wear very limited pieces of jewelry, the worn pieces reflect
royalty and grandeur. Likewise, finger accessories also radiate the same ideology.
Traditional Mughal rings mostly follow the structure of floral motifs. As we see, our
bride is wearing a similar design with several stones in two different colors. Islamic
tradition has beautiful mehendi designs which accentuates this jewelry style. While
choosing these statement rings, make sure to go for stones which are contrasting to
your attire. To clarify, this technique will help you to gain equal importance for the
jewelry as well as outfit.
7) A Wholesome Kerala Style
If you are aiming for a wholesome look, concentrate more on layering. Kerala
traditional bridal jewelry is not as heavy as North Indian Kundan jewelry or Mughal
style bridal jewelry. Therefore, it gives us a chance to layer. Finger rings can be
styled, just the way we layer the neck-pieces and bangles. So, you may fill most of
your fingers with traditional rings. If you are thinking of including statement rings, go
for a large single stone embedded ring. So that it will compliment the other rings and
your outfit. Instead of keeping some fingers empty, choose subtle designs to occupy it
with grace.
8) Thinking Out Of the Box
.
Are you thinking of doing something special for each other with a plain wedding
band? Well, there are hundred different engagement ring ideas awaiting you! First of
all, you could choose to do the engraving in the inner surface of the ring instead of
outer. This brings a sweet intimacy with the engraving. The next idea might sound
crazy but here we go! Design your ring in such a way that its hollow inside and place
any substance which reminds you of your partner. It could be two or three sand
particles from the beach where you first met, in Goa or Hawaii. Discuss your crazy
ideas with the jewelry designer to customize your engagement ring!
9) A Showstopper/Ring-Bracelet
A ring bracelet is a ring which has one or more attachments with a bracelet. It’s
originated from ‘Hath Phool’ which is a traditional bridal ornament with five rings.
And, these rings are attached to a bangle-like bracelet. A ring bracelet is found
commonly in Muslim brides. Added to that, there are several brand new designs
emerging in the industry for this interesting ornament. Considering the beauty and
peculiarity of this hand ornament, it has gained universal popularity. While wearing a
ring bracelet, it is suitable to not pair it with any other ornaments. Therefore, the
ornament is amplified to its maximum vibrancy.
10) The Grace of Layering
If you are interested in bulk ring layering, we have some tips for you! While
accessorizing for weddings, its important to make sure that every piece of jewelry you
wear stands out. Thereby, try layering in just one finger and leave all the other fingers
free. As seen in the image, make sure that seventy percent of the layered rings are
uniform or plain without stones. And, top it with a stone embedded ring as a finishing
touch. When it comes to layering, combination of statement pieces in a single finger
could create a disturbing effect. However if you feel that vibe, then go for it. Above
all, there are no rules in fashion. It’s all about how you are carrying yourself.
Accessorizing can be difficult especially when it comes to celebratory occasions. Here
we are discussing heavy jewelry designs. Infact, even contemporary or minimal
diamond jewelry can create an uneasiness while we are styling bridal jewelry.
Therefore, we wish to give out a helping hand to all our confused brides with fresh
and interesting ideas. Leave behind the cliche ideas and renew your wedding planning
with our tips and tricks.
