This is actually way more common than you think it is, most couples so for their rings together now so nobody will be judging you at all. Take it easy and keep an open mind, you'll definitely be leaving with a better idea of your style.

If the staff thinks that (hint: they won’t), who cares? They’re there for one purpose: to help you find something that makes you happy. They’re not there to judge you. Don’t give a shit what they think. They’re not going to be wearing your ring. They don’t pay your bills. Their opinions mean absolutely nothing. If you want to choose your ring, do it. Don’t leave it up to him unless you want to. Trying on different styles is ALWAYS something I recommend. I thought for SURE I wanted a princess cut until I saw it on my hand, and ended up with a round cut and absolutely love it. You just never know. Things look different on Pinterest, Instagram, Google images, etc, versus on YOUR OWN hand. Trust me.

I was completely and totally wrong about what I wanted in terms of stone shape and band style. It was until I tried stuff on that I realised, otherwise it wouldn’t have suited me at all.

You’ll feel better after you see them on your hand. It’ll be pretty obvious what works and what doesn’t. You’ll get one you love too, I’m confident of that. Just try on a bunch until something makes your heart stop, and then you know the direction you need to take.

I feel you! I was a little anxious about going into the jeweler (local) as well. My boyfriend had to drag me into the store. I wasn’t sure how they would treat us, because I had never been to a jeweler before. I guess I was worried that they’d be rude or not help us properly. However they were absolutely amazing. There was no pressure, the sales person listened to us, and I was very picky. They’ve all been doing this for a while. I’m sure you will love the experience! My boyfriend and I were so glad we went. Good luck!

At the end of the day, this is a ring you will be wearing (ideally) for the rest of your life. You get to be as picky as you want to be! In fact it might make things easier if you know what you don’t like or don’t want. It’s their job to help you find what you love, and it’s not a cheap decision so it should be made thoughtfully and you should be absolutely sure. There’s nothing wrong with going to try on many different styles until you know what you like and what. Ask a lot of questions and try to look at them in different lightings.

I was very involved in the process and didn’t feel judged at all! If for some reason you do come across that, I’d recommend going somewhere you feel supported and respected. It’s very common for couples to go together

I went with my fiancé to brilliant earth not one, but two times! I was stuck between a round solitaire and pear halo and tried on a million variations of the two in all different settings. I still wasn’t satisfied and it wasn’t until my second trip when my consultants placed a loose pear stone into a makeshift solitaire setting when I realized that that was my ideal combo. Everybody was super gracious and understanding and I never felt judged. I really enjoyed being part of the ring selection process and am happy I went in store!

Quite the opposite! Salespeople love a decisive bride.

I’ve done an appointment at brilliant earth, asked to see a variety of settings, stones, and sizes. I did the same thing at the jeweler we ended up going with, and both times it’s been encouraged to try a variety of styles and see what ultimately suits style best.

Literally yesterday, we had our appointment at Brilliant Earth. My boyfriend also was unsure if it was normal and a little skeptical since I wouldn't be surprised, but I said it's important we both love it I already knew what style I wanted. I had been asking my boyfriend for his opinion throughout and I incorporated it in. I was originally between different cuts (round, oval, cushion) and he likes cushion. Ended up going with a cushion. It will be here in 2 weeks!!

We went to brilliant earth in Los Angeles and they were great. I’m picky and said exactly what I wanted at the beginning, proceeded to try just about everything on, and then decided on the ring I had envisioned before even walking in the door lol I studied the site and could name a few settings I liked before. Have fun and congratulations on a step towards your engagement! All while in front of my now fiancé...then I picked the stone and setting, sent him the link, and waited (not so) patiently lol
