We absolutely love the recent article Who What Wear posted titled "The New Rules of Engagement Ring Etiquette". We couldn't agree more that the culture surrounding proposals and engagements is moving away from traditional and becoming more modern. The site posted seven new rules that they believe should guide couples through the engagement process. We are particularly fond of the notion that the girl can help pick out the ring! It is becoming increasingly more common for us to have couples shop together to find their forever ring. If you still like the idea of a surprise, we recommend narrowing down maybe three or four rings that you'd be thrilled to have and letting him make the final decision. Be sure to check out the article for an in depth look at all of the new (& improved!) guidelines! ♥
