Engagement

This section explores all things related to engagements! Such as advice for romantic proposals, what to say and where to go, or the history of proposals. It also looks at engagement rings, such as the different kinds of metals and cuts, engagement rings for a budget and what style would be best suited to your future fiancée. We know proposing and getting engaged are significant events in your life, that’s why at Shining Diamonds we want to be with you every step of the way. We don’t just provide the perfect ring, but our articles aim to help you with any of your wedding worries.

Our other article sections split into categories such as education, lifestyle and weddings. The education articles further inform readers of important things you should know about jewellery, such as why certificates are important, and a guide to metals and diamond cuts. The lifestyle section helps you find jewellery suited to your individual lifestyle, such as which diamond shape defines your style or which ring setting is suited to your day to day activities.
