Getting engaged is one of those life-changing moments that makes you want to shout from the rooftops.

It’s right up there with getting into your dream school, having your first baby, and finding out your grandma chose you to inherit her vintage sapphire necklace. (Okay, maybe that last one is just us.)

Whether it’s the gift of “something old” for your wedding, or inheritance from a relative, you may find yourself the new caretaker of a piece of heirloom jewelry.

While the gift of a family memento is an honor, it can also become a sticky subject.

Shopping for diamonds can be a scary subject if you’re the one making the purchase decision. If you have plans to pop the question over the holidays, or just want to find your special someone an extra special gift, now’s not the time to get spooked. It’s time to get smart and savvy.

You’ve picked out the perfect engagement ring. And hopefully you’ve already asked the parents for permission, right?

Now you’re ready to “pop the question” and ask your love for their hand in marriage. Or maybe, you're just not ready for that step because you find yourself struggling to plan the perfect proposal. And you keep on seeing all these perfect, and sometimes over-the-top proposals pop up on your social media feeds.
