Traditional: The traditional Bride usually prefers a soilitaire diamond ring. Giving her the diamond first allows the both of you to shop together for the band or addtional setting for the stone that way you can still surprise her with the diamond.

Modern: The Modern Bride usually prefers a diamond set in a semi-mount. This requires more knowledge on the Grooms part as there are many different styles of semi-mounts. The Modern Bride likes to shop for her ring before hand as well but likes the surprise of when she gets it rather than what she gets.

Contemporary: The Contemporary Bride usually prefers something different like a three stone ring or possibly a gemstone instead of a diamond, or gemstones on the sides. Like the Modern Bride she likes to shop but for her ring.

Romantic: The Romantic Bride usually prefers a ring that is a symbol of love but doesn’t have to have all the flash. They like simple with a touch of whimsey. They usually prefer a nice wedding wrap or wedding set with a feminine touch.
