Proposing in the summer has become increasingly popular over the past years. The sun is shining, the temperatures are rising and people find themselves with more opportunities to find the perfect location and setting to pop the question.
Planning an exciting surprise is indeed a lot of fun, and you need to make sure you have the right sparkle to accompany the surprise: the most exclusive diamond jewellery to mark the day. In this guide, we’ll help you find the perfect diamond engagement ring for summer.
Looking to propose during the summer months? You're part of a growing trend! Summer proposals have become increasingly popular as people take advantage of warm weather, longer days, and vacation time to create the perfect proposal moment.
For summer engagements, consider how your metal choice complements lighter clothing and possibly tanned skin. While yellow or rose gold beautifully captures summer's warmth, platinum remains an excellent choice for sensitive skin despite the heat.
Design-wise, rings with subtle floral motifs or gentle waves can reflect summer's natural beauty without being overwhelming. For diamond shapes, consider oval or cushion cuts for their romantic feel, or a radiant cut that mimics summer sunlight. For something truly special, yellow diamonds beautifully evoke summer sunsets.
Complete your proposal by choosing a picturesque outdoor setting that embraces the season's natural beauty—perhaps a beach at sunset or a blooming garden.
When she does like a pop of colour in her jewellery collection, make sure to find out what type. You can choose monochrome coloured rings like a yellow gold ring with yellow diamonds, but a sapphire and diamond halo is just as tasteful. You can even choose different types of gem on the same diamond ring but be sure to make it a timeless choice. A multi-coloured ring such as our coloured diamond butterfly ring is best left as a beautiful gift, not a timeless engagement ring.
Remember to check if she prefers colour in the precious metal or in the sparkling gems. Coloured metal gives a subtler hint of colour, while most coloured gems make more of a bold statement.
Colour for an engagement ring is a bold choice. You might want her to remember her summer proposal and beautiful diamond ring for the rest of her life, but you want it to be for the right reasons. If she is not fond of coloured jewellery or you are not sure of her preference, stick to the more traditional kind. But that does not mean that summer cannot be reflected in your perfect ring. Does she prefer something subtler? Then look for a ring with soft curves and playful elegance that reflects the feeling of summertime. Or maybe she would prefer a floral theme in a modern style?
