Choosing the right engagement ring is a momentous step, but ensuring it fits perfectly? That’s essential. A ring should feel snug enough to stay secure but comfortable enough to wear every day.
Whether you’re surprising your partner with a classic halo ring or looking to design your own engagement band, we understand the importance of precision in this process — which is why we’ve created this simple guide to help you find engagement rings in Brisbane.
Here are some tips to keep in mind:
- Use a printable ring sizer
A printable ring sizer makes it easier to find the ideal wedding rings in Brisbane. Simply download the sizer and print it at 100% scale, as any resizing or page adjustments may affect the measurements.
Then, take a ring your partner already wears on the same finger and place it over the circles on the chart. Make sure the inside edge of the ring lines up with one of the printed circles. The circle that matches exactly is the correct size. If the ring sits between two sizes, opt for a half size.
- Use a tape measure
Wrap a measuring tape around the base of your partner’s finger, ensuring it’s snug but not too tight. The ring should feel secure enough to stay on but loose enough to glide over your knuckle without trouble. If their knuckle is larger than their finger’s base, measure both areas and choose a size somewhere in between. For accurate sizing, measure their ring finger three to four times and consult a ring size conversion chart.
- Seek professional guidance
The best way to ensure the right fit is to visit a jewellery studio, like Ashley Douglas. Here, you can consult expert jewellers, try on various sizes and explore different bands and settings. Whether you’re looking for designer pieces or custom wedding rings in Brisbane, these experts will provide personalised advice to ensure superior comfort and style.
How to get their ring size without ruining the surprise
If you’re planning a surprise proposal, here are some tips to help you find the perfect ring size without giving it away:
- Borrow your partner’s ring
Borrow a ring your partner already wears on the same finger (typically the ring finger of the left hand). Be sure to choose one they wear occasionally to avoid suspicion. Then, bring the ring to your jeweller to have it professionally measured.
- Ask help from a close friend or family member
Reach out to someone who’s likely to have discussed ring sizes with your partner, such as a sibling or close friend. They may already know your partner’s exact ring size or have helped them try on wedding rings in Brisbane before. Even if they’re unsure of the sizing, they could provide valuable hints into your partner’s preferred setting or stone.
