It’s traditionally the groom — or whoever is asking- to surprise the other with a diamond ring. But it’s an item you must live with for a long time, so it’s best to think long and hard about your ring style. After all, a ring is meant to be worn daily, not just for special occasions or to keep the safety deposit box warm. Stick with the classics — maybe with a twist but don’t choose something so different that you may not like it in 10 years. But diamonds are not the only gem that is forever. Emeralds, pearls, and sapphires are all within the realm of appropriate engagement rings. Any type of ring or gem is acceptable if given with love, but precious metals and gemstones have staying power. They become legacy items attached to stories and memories.

Your bridal look is another opportunity to invest in fine jewelry. Ellagem is a pearl jeweler started by Ella Gafter. She soon became known as the Queen of Pearls, and her daughter Talila joined the business. ”We all like to commemorate a momentous occasion, and fine jewelry is ideal for this. It serves that purpose repeatedly when gifted — typically from one generation to the next. Moreover, a classic piece of jewelry — unlike a wedding dress, can be worn for a lifetime,” states Talila.

Pearls have a luminosity and pair elegantly with a white wedding gown. Jennifer Lopez showed some pearl love when she got married this summer — she accented her Ralph Lauren dress with a single virgin pearl ring worn with a pearl drop earring. She opted for the classic adornment this time around—maybe this is for keeps.
