Engagement Rings for the Non-Traditional Bride

Now more than ever brides are owning their individuality, and we say bravo! From the location itself to the order of events, customs, quirky touches and even bridal fashion, details are now designed for the couple not convention. What sets the tone tone for this custom wedding experience?  The engagement ring.

Choices are no longer limited to cut, clarity and yellow vs. white gold. Think diamonds — but what color (pink, yellow, chocolate)? Think gemstones (sapphire, ruby, aquamarine, emerald). Think rose gold, titanium, silver, tungsten. Think asymmetrical designs. Think simple, ornate, natural, embellished, off-center, round, oval, square, mishapen. You get our drift. The options are endless.

Check out these inventive takes on the classic engagement ring, and who knows, maybe one of them just screams “you.”
