Even if you want a visually simple engagement ring setting, there are three key ways to consider "secretive" personalization. You can add a hidden halo under your stone with tiny diamonds or gemstones that represent a specific sentiment. You can also add your partner's birthstone underneath the diamond, a subtle detail only you can see. Finally, you can add two small burnished birthstones in the inside of the band to represent your birthdays in lieu of a traditional engraving.
Wegman says the most common reason her clients bring their engagement rings back is for a resizing, which should come as no surprise. But she also sees many customers return in 5-10 years to reset their diamond or upgrade the center stone, mostly because their taste in style has changed.
When future brides find themselves unhappy with their engagement ring, it's usually because their partner didn't listen to the desired details, they each had a different vision, or there was no communication about the ring at all. So don't be afraid to speak up, Wegman advises — this is one important piece of jewelry.
