Remember that first month of being together? In the Philippines, we call it “monthsary.” It marks that special date when she said “yes” from the time you had the courage to get her number and ask her to go out. And most, if not all, still have that vivid memory of preparing something for that special day – flowers, chocolates, short notes, etc.
So now comes another occasion after you have made up your mind that she is the one whom you are going to spend the rest of your life with – engagement.
To most guys, this is nightmare. Just the thought of her saying “I’m not yet ready” could literally bring you that butterfly to dance graciously (not) in your stomach. Thus, a lengthy preparation is made to bring that “Awwww” to the table and make her say “Yes!” one more time.
Now, this is where that magical “Yes! Ring” comes in.
Choosing an engagement ring is a challenge. Most guys have no idea what the options are. Well, it is a common knowledge that many would want to hand a diamond ring, but anything beyond that gets handed over first to google for help.
Drumroll, GoldandStones comes in to offer options, present designs, pick the ideal gemstone and craft it perfectly to fit the princess that will soon be a queen.
Over the years, we have created countless of “Yes! Rings” and these evolved in 3 basic rules.
Rule number 1: Budget, budget, budget
Funding matters. Not that you need to have a huge fund to pull off a yes, but it makes things easy to execute.
We have dealt with engagement rings from as limited as 10,000 PHP to almost 10,000 USD. This makes us as flexible as we can be.
In terms of deciding on what you want, it is always for your best interest to figure out the how much budget question you are willing to allocate at least before you contact us.
Rule number 2: Let’s talk about size because it matters
Once budget is set, we can talk about sizes. Size of stone, ring size, all sizes. You really got to know how your partner’s finger size as it is an essential part of that surprise you’ll be pulling off.
When it comes to the size of stone, you can tell us how big you want it to be. As soon as we have your preferred size, we can go back to rule number 1 and make things match.
Rule number 3: Design it like she’d wear it
You know what happens after proposal, right? She’s going to be showing it off big time!
Now, in terms of her liking what she will be wearing until growing old, you must consider many things. You make it match with her personality. You either provide us a generic design, inspiration-filled designs or entrust us in making one for your loved one.
Simple as those rules, she will be saying yes.
Now, it is best that you browse over our designs and see if there is something that attracts you which you think would match her personality.
We all look forward to that day as much as you do. So ping us anytime as we are waiting for you.
Xoxo,
