Nab Your Perfect Engagement Ring Based on Your Bridal Style

Once upon a time, a smitten partner would save up his or her pennies, pick out a sparkler, and get down on one knee. But, it doesn’t always go down like that today... Choosing the right engagement ring has become an integral part of the wedding process for many couples, and more and more millennial brides want to weigh in on the decision.

If you and your S.O. are thinking about getting engaged but you're not sure which type of ring will be the one, the diamond experts at Zales are ready to help you find something that suits your style. So, just choose your bride type below and meet your perfect match.

1. Always On-Trend

Are you a fashion blog addict with a love of perfectly staged Instagram snapshots? Planning to fill your big day with oversized balloons and pink peonies? If so, then you'll want an equally on point ring, like this darling dazzler with its square-shaped double diamond frame in romantic rose gold.

2. Endlessly Indie

Do you love all things off-beat, from quirky fashion to under-the-radar rock bands? Maybe you're planning to wear neon pumps at the wedding or walk down the aisle to a banjo solo? Well, when it comes to your ring, you'll want an alternative standout that feels really special, so opt for a colored center stone like this stunning blue sapphire.

3. Beautifully Boho

How are you so effortlessly cool and carefree? Can we assume you'll be saying "I do" in an open field and wearing a blooming flower crown? With your laid back vibe and "less is more" style, you'll want something simple with a touch whimsy. Try this solitaire diamond, beautifully wrapped in a graceful rose gold shank.

4. Totally Classic

Are you all about tradition and timeless elegance? Will you be tying the knot on the beach or a nearby social club, with white linens and preppy navy blue striped details? If your style is perfectly polished, then this Celebration Grand® princess-cut solitaire ring in white gold has got to be the one for you.

5. Seriously City Hall

Do you love all things old school, like record players and soda shops? Perhaps you're saying your vows down at the courthouse then packing up an Airstream for the ultimate honeymoon road trip? With its breathtaking trio of marquise-cut diamonds, this sparkler honors the Past Present Future® just like you do.

6. All Out Glamorous

Are you all about that bling? Will your wedding be dripping in diamonds or encrusted with crystals? When it comes to the ring, you're going to want something extra extravagant and flashy, so it stands out from the rest of the glitz and glam. With its center diamond flanked by two more stones, and wrapped in a spiraling ribbon of shine, this is the one.

7. Thoroughly Modern

Is your wardrobe made-up mostly of structured staples in black and white? Are you planning your big day in a stylish art gallery or sleek loft space? Opt for a cool, vibrant ring like this white gold beauty. The central round-cut stone is surrounded by a double squared frame of round accent diamonds, and has a diamond studded shank.
