Why Some Men Don’t Wear Custom Engagement Rings

Why Some Men Don’t Wear Custom Engagement Rings

Rob Shinsky

Custom engagement rings are quite popular amongst couples in the modern-day.

In 2018, the UK’s biggest pop star chose to wear a custom engagement ring to announce his upcoming marriage to his childhood sweetheart Cheryl. “I never saw why men didn’t wear engagement rings because it’s the same commitment either way,” said Ed Sheeran. “Cherry made it for me herself out of silver clay and I really like it.”

Why More Men Should Wear Custom Engagement Rings
You may see more men wearing custom engagement rings to announce their new-and-improved relationship status. As Sheeran said, both partners make the same commitment. Men’s engagement rings are sometimes called “man-gagement” rings. In the U.S., singer Michael Buble wore a man-gagement ring because it was his future wife’s family custom. In 1926, mega-retailers like Macy’s introduced men’s custom engagement rings, but the ad campaign fell flat. Even with names like “Master, “Pilot,” and “Stag,” Too many men were afraid to try the fashion. In fact, it was circa 1940s before men’s wedding bands became a trend. Some fashions take courage…and time.

Your Love is Unique; Celebrate It with a Custom Engagement Ring
Custom bridal jewelry goes beyond engagement and wedding rings. If your man isn’t interested in wearing a man-gagement ring, consider a beautiful – manly – bracelet. Your wedding party will also appreciate thoughtful necklaces, earrings, and bracelets that commemorate your special day and their lasting friendships. Women’s engagement rings traditionally signaled that said woman was “taken.” Well, women would like to send the same message. Custom engagement rings usually lead to custom wedding bands, so they should be designed together.

What Says ‘I Love You’ More than a Custom Engagement Ring?
In Palm Harbor, Florida, custom engagement rings are available for every soon-to-be bride and groom. They can meet the financial requirements of almost every wedding budget. You can take advantage of pre-designed and unique custom engagement rings:

- Marquis Rose – Sophisticatedly understated diamond in white and rose gold setting. (Your version can be whatever metals or gemstones you prefer.)
- Splendor – This black opal was handpicked in Australia by Robert Shinsky. It’s set into a 14-karat white gold bezel and flanked by two rows of channel-set diamonds.
- Swirl – Designed by Bob Shinsky, this 14-karat gold has a beautiful white gold bezel and a raised diamond framed by diamond insets.
…Or design your own shape and style.
