5 things to think about before your online consultation with Ovadia

1.Choose a design and share it with us

Before you book an online consultation with us, it is very important to establish an idea of how you want the ring/jewellery piece to look.

Social media can be an accessible source of inspiration where you can also get in touch with us. Take a look at our Ovadia Jewellery Instagram or Facebook page and you will find plenty of ideas for your perfect bespoke ring or jewellery piece.

You can then ask us directly about any particular jewellery item you have found, and we can discuss how we can turn it into the dream accessory you’ve been searching for. You should think of it as a definition of your personalities as well. Understand what your partner wants too and discover as many details as possible prior to our online consultation.

Note down a few key elements that you want to be taken into consideration and let the craftsmen do their magic. It will take a few weeks for the bespoke jewellery item to be ready and we are offering the option of booked collection slots for this at our Ovadia Jewellery shop.

2. Establish a budget

You will surely be amazed by the variety of designs and offers we provide at Ovadia.

This can be a little overwhelming and it would be better to have a budget in mind before the online consultation. Do a quick check of the prices of bespoke engagement diamond rings in London and or ask us directly about price ranges for certain models to discuss the total charges.

Depending on your ideas, we will think of cost optimization and at Ovadia we also provide great saving tips.  There are plenty of alternatives that match both your budget and desired model.

3. Think about the metal, colour and gemstone

We ask you to first think about the metal, colour and gemstone you would prefer before your online consultation. Take into consideration your lifestyles, your tastes and preferences.

You can also opt for something unique and combine the metals. For example, rose gold and white gold go very well together, creating a distinctive look.

The stone’s colour will also contribute to the jewellery’s final look. Some prefer engagement and wedding rings with clear diamonds, some pick a coloured stone for more distinction.

Moreover, a diamond’s shape also plays a crucial role. Round and princess diamonds tend to be the most popular cuts. The heart diamond or the grand emerald diamond shape are other options and often we find that people just need a little bit of expert guidance to establish their likes and dislikes. So, talk to us!

4. Add personal touches

Do you have a memorable phrase, word or symbol which defines your love story? Or would you prefer your engagement or wedding date engraved on your bespoke ring?

By choosing to order a custom-made jewellery piece, you will have the opportunity to add some individual touches to remind you of a special event. The message or symbol you choose will not only represent your feelings, but it will also make the piece of jewellery more special to you.

Once the ring is ready, you should also think of an insurance policy for it. Considering its infinite emotional value, let alone the financial cost, it is essential to think of a protection solution in case something happens to it. We can also give you advice on this.

One of the most frequently asked questions by both the bride and groom-to-be is “do our engagement rings have to match?” Since it is a critical time that demands several decision-making steps including choosing the actual engagement ring for the significant other, we get it you’re puzzled.

When is it necessary for engagement rings to match?

An engagement ring is an integral part of a marriage proposal. It represents the unspoken and spoken promises you are going to make before you embark on a beautiful journey together.

Traditionally, the groom-to-be pays for the engagement ring. Therefore, he must consider his significant other’s style, personality type, and finger size.

And these are only a few of the factors that go into choosing the right engagement ring.

If you are thinking of flaunting an engagement ring the entire time your SO wears theirs, that’s incredibly thoughtful. Although it is not mandatory for the man to wear an engagement ring too, you might choose to wear one due to family traditions or because you hosted a formal engagement party.

Men in many families wear an engagement ring until they replace them with the wedding ring on their wedding day.

Why should your engagement ring match hers?

While choosing a man’s engagement ring isn’t difficult, it does beg the extra attention to detail since there should be some parity between the two engagement rings you and your beloved wear till your special day. Keep it simple, buy a pair.

Matching rings show that you have similar tastes, and at the same time, you are ready to undertake the unknown journey in stride with each other irrespective of the odds. They are the cohesive expression of the love you share.

What’s our take on non-matching engagement rings?

Non-matching engagement rings are not deal-breakers either. Distinct wedding rings for the man and the woman signify that each has their unique styles. Moreover, just because two rings are different in looks, does not mean they will have nothing in common. You can get matching engravings, same or complementary gemstones or your birthstones, or the stones of the months you fell in love on two very different bands for your engagement.

Wedding rings typically replace the engagement ring for the man. Many women choose to wear their engagement rings and wedding rings stacked together long after their marriage day. So, in addition to worrying about your ring style matching your significant other’s, you should also consider the design of the wedding ring that you will wear forever after the “I Do’s”.

It is a practice to purchase wedding rings that match for the man and the woman. If your significant other wants to wear their wedding ring only after your special day, you should spend more time looking for a set of wedding rings that match, instead of worrying about your engagement ring design.

How to be sure about a design?

The best way to make sure you are buying the right ring for both of you – take her along when you shop. Unless, of course, the proposal is a surprise!

Always talk about the designs and styles you like. Who knows? Maybe secretly she has always wanted a steampunk-themed engagement ring just like the one you like.

Simply come to our Ovadia Jewellery shop in Hatton Garden to try on some of our stunning and unique engagement rings so you figure out which style is right for you and your partner.

You can find diamond necklaces for every budget

Picking out a diamond necklace isn’t difficult at all with so many diamond jewellery options for any budget range.

Whether you have been dating for just a few months or you have been married for a couple of years, you can go with a simple solitaire pendant on a gold or white gold chain to celebrate your love. This simple design is ideal for the woman who is stylish yet minimal in her getup.

Diamond necklaces can complement every personal style

Diamonds for the formal wear

Remember, if you want your soulmate to wear your gift daily, even with her formal wear on weekdays, go with something small, yet exquisite. A singular medium-sized diamond pendant that flirts with the V-shaped neckline of the typical formal shirts and blazers is the perfect choice for your busy-bee partner on the working days.

Diamond necklaces for parties and special days

You can also think about making the day extra special by choosing a pear or sapphire shaped diamond pendant on a gold chain. These complement bold necklines of plunge tops and dresses. You may not see your loved one sport these every day, but she will definitely reach for them for your weekend weddings and formal parties.

Diamond necklaces to declare your love

The heart-shaped pendant with brilliant round diamonds is a stealer of hearts. It is a conversation piece that will not only grab eyeballs, but it will be the object of envy of all her girlfriends. Heart-shaped diamond pendants are light-hearted and fun. They are more than perfect for Valentine’s Day, especially if you don’t have plans of picking other gifts for your significant other.

You can complete the set with bespoke matching earrings

To make the day even more special, pair the diamond necklace with a pair of matching diamond earrings that will compliment her long and slender neck. Pick long art deco earrings for parties and informal dinners. Or, understated princess cut diamond studs, which she can ever-so-effortlessly flaunt even with her formal shirts and jackets.

Diamond necklaces elevate every dress

Choosing the right length of the chain is also very important. If your SO is particularly fond of sweetheart necklines and small round necklines, you can confidently opt for shorter and lighter designs in gold or white gold.

If she prefers turtlenecks, off-shoulders and Bardot tops/dresses, you might want to make the brave choice of a longer chain. Long chains in gold, silver and white gold go brilliantly well with strapless dresses and wide necklines.

You can get just the diamond necklace and nothing else!

You should consider getting a diamond necklace or pendant for your loved one this year because every woman loves diamonds! If you have been racking your brain and losing sleep over the perfect gift that will woo her, then this is your answer. Diamond necklaces are for every woman, who always likes to be the best-accessorized person in the room.

What kind of engagement rings do men wear?

choosing engagement rings symbolize the unity of two people loving each other and their never-ending love between them. “Usually, brides prefer more elegant, feminine jewellery, whereas grooms prefer rings that are simpler or plainer.” according to Hannah, owner of Ovadia Jewellery in London’s prestigious Hatton Garden. This is reflected in their offerings of engagement and wedding rings for men as you can see below.

Which metal is preferred for the male engagement ring?

If the engagement ring is the first accessory in the life of the groom, he might find it slightly challenging to choose from a large selection of men’s engagement rings.

But most men fall for durable metals such as silver, white gold and platinum, which are also popular metals among young people. White gold contains nickel and platinum is more expensive but hypoallergenic. These metals can be easily combined with different outfits of men’s wardrobes. The older generation of men opts for the traditional gold.

Challenges of choosing an engagement ring for a man

Buying an engagement ring is a crucial process as this piece of jewellery will be worn for a long time. The main criteria by which grooms choose an engagement ring are fundamentally different from women:

1. Convenience
   

   Men prefer a nicely fitting ring that isn’t’ uncomfortable to wear and doesn’t interfere with work.

2. Pricing policy

   Compared to women, men try to save and choose a rather simple ring.

3. Design

   Simplicity is the most common theme. Fancy patterns or precious stones do not really matter to men.

Why engagement rings reflect the oneness

Identical or similarly looking jewellery symbolizes the integrity, unity of a young family, complementing each other. This should be reflected in the engagement rings of the couple.

Brides love accessories decorated with precious stones. Grooms are more likely to go for plain rather than shiny rings. And according to The Knot’s 2019 Jewelry & Engagement Study, the most popular centre stones are diamonds making up 83% of all jewels. One great alternative to traditional engagement rings are open rings as they are equally liked by men and women. Overlapping rings that offer a different style are another alternative where the golden diamond ring for the bride a gem in titanium is suitable compromises.

Show your imagination and research some engagement jewellery trends before deciding! Or come to the Ovadia Jewellery shop for an engagement ring consultation. Try on a ring or two to see which metal and style works best for you.

At Ovadia Jewellery we often deal with customers, who are looking to impress their favourite person in the world not just with their engagement ring, but with their whole proposal.

When advising our clients about this unique process, we recognize that it can be quite tasking and demanding. To start with, you have to be confident that your partner is ready and prepared before popping the big question; then you have to find the perfect and ideal ring to use for your proposal.

We got that covered for you as you can get fantastic and elegant engagement and wedding rings at Ovadia Jewellery, and we truly take the time to implement all your wishes and ideas. To also offer our support finding the perfect place to ask the big question we happily share some marriage proposal locations our customers have chosen.

There are numerous options when looking for the best places to propose, but of course, some would be better than others.

Read this article to help you avoid some of the stress of finding the best and most romantic places to propose.

London

If you are wondering about an elegant and at the same time fun city to make your proposal, then London is the perfect place for you to get the “yes” you are after. Ovadia Jewellery is based in London’s Hatton Garden and our heart is certainly set on this gorgeous city.

Here are the top impressive places to propose in London:

• St Paul’s Cathedral
  

  This is one of the most iconic and famous cathedrals in the world. In it you find a whispering gallery that is marvellously designed in a way that a whisper against the wall can be heard clearly at the other side, about 112 feet away – perfect for whispering the question! If you can get to the very top outside, you could overlook the whole of beautiful London, and this would be a terrific spot to ask your big question, with God’s blessing.

• The Tower Bridge
  

  Do you want to make your proposal extra special? Why not hire the whole of the Tower Bridge and fill it with candles and petals to propose in the most elevated and historic way, while you are over-looking London? If you can make London stop, you can make your big love’s heartbeat stop for a minute.

• Sky Garden
  

  London’s modern Sky Garden is the most extensive in Europe; it is located at the very top of London’s walkie talkie building. This garden is perfect for making your proposal as it overlooks the city, yet you’ll still feel like you’re surrounded by nature if you’re a fan of plants.

• Royal Observatory
  

  What better way is there to ask the ultimate question than under the starry London night sky? The Planetarium in Greenwich allows you to have your names and the big question written in the stars – show that you love them to the moon and back!

• Many more highlights for any taste
  

  London is a great city with many tourist sites which are ideal to pop the big question and get your desired answer. It has beautiful and elegant hotels like the Ritz likewise beautiful gardens and parks too like Kensington Gardens and Regents Park, which are available for hire. Let your creativity lead the way to your partner’s heart!

Kauai, Hawaii

Proposing under the sunset beneath Hanakapi’ai Falls on the breathtaking Na Pali Coast is going to be unforgettable as we hear. In a place like Kauai, you have numerous activities that you can try out like swimming, hiking, or even helicopter rides for the more adventurous wedding proposal. On the opposite end of Kauai Island is the Fern Grotto, which is also an exotic space for memorable marriage proposals.

Paris, France

The city of love itself is obviously the choice for all romantics. The Eiffel Tower is the top place, but don’t think that’s all Paris has to offer: the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe or even the tree-lined Medici Fountain is ideal for marriage proposals with a romantic twist as we have learned.

New York, New York City

If you and your partner have never been to New York or absolutely love it, then it would be perfect to ask the ultimate question in this world-famous city that never sleeps. See the backdrop of the Brooklyn Bridge with the beautifully lit skyline during sunset, or the Bow Bridge in Central Park, which is used to create a romantic feeling in every New York movie like in the episode where Jim proposes to Pan in The Proposals. As NYC has so many iconic places, you could kneel down in a location featured in one of your favourite movies or series as one of our customer couples decided to do.

Queenstown, New Zealand

If you want an adventurous and at the same time, a romantic proposal to excite your partner to give you a yes, then making your proposal in a hot air balloon would not be a bad idea at all. But there are only a few places this activity truly leaves you breathless and Queenstown happens to be the best for that.

Make Proposal meaningful

You can select any of the places mentioned above to make your wedding proposal unforgettable and get your desired “yes” from your partner. We hope the above examples from our Ovadia clients are a great inspiration and enable you to work out what would blow your partner’s mind, even on a budget. Because, as we’ve found, it’s not about how expensive and famous the proposal location is, it’s about the significance and meaning it has for the love between the partners about to tie the knot. That’s why we value custom made and bespoke wedding jewellery that reflects the uniqueness of each couple.

Actually, there are days which are the most popular and the best time to make a proposal.

Analyzing the most popular times to get engaged, turns out most people do so between Thanksgiving and Valentine’s Day.

After all, a sparkly new engagement ring would make a perfect holiday gift. So, if the question ‘when is the best time to propose’ has been heavily on your mind, here are the most popular engagement and proposal days – and they’re just around the corner so we’ve added some gift ideas.

Christmas Day

Christmas Days are one of the best times to propose. It is easy to see why – Christmas is the festival of love and one of the most celebratory times of the year when it’s high time for gift-giving. Also, most couples are spending time with their loved ones on Christmas so it would not be hard to have a post-proposal celebration consisting of your family members and loved ones. At Ovadia Jewellery we feature a special variety of a gem called Padparadscha sapphire, which we feel is perfect for a Christmas Day proposal. It features a delicate colour that is a combination of pink and orange symbolizing warmth. And as it’s a marriage between a ruby and yellow sapphire, it perfectly merges the love of you two.

Valentine’s Day

This is the second most popular day to propose. Valentine’s Day is a day of love and receiving a ring rather than a box of chocolates is sure to make that Valentine’s Day a memorable one.

Christmas Eve

In some countries, the tradition of giving gifts happens on Christmas Eve rather than Christmas Day, so it is also a perfect day for a romantic Christmas proposal. The Christmas Eve dinner is a special occasion where everyone comes together joyfully, so popping the big question before, during or after the dinner is going to be a fantastic moment, especially if you enjoy having many witnesses or even involve others.

December 23rd

It is not a surprise that many couples get engaged on the day before Christmas Eve because they would like to kick off their Christmas time on a joyous note and a marriage proposal is certainly one of the best ways to do that, especially if they prefer to be in private for this intimate moment.

New Year’s Day

New Year’s Day is a favourite amongst romantics to propose to their partner. Any proposal that is made at or right after midnight constitutes a New Year’s Day engagement – and it is well known that many couples like to start off the year with a kiss and a proposal. It symbolizes new beginnings and is an exciting and hopeful time.

New Year’s Eve

There are numerous New Year’s Eve parties to be celebrated and people look back at the past year as well as making new plans for the year ahead. So, it’s no wonder that many proposals occur during this period. With family and friends around, what could be a more perfect moment to propose?

Two Saturdays before Christmas

Once again, some couples cannot wait until the Christmas holidays to pop the big question. During the holiday shopping period, proposers are purchasing engagement rings and we all know how hard it is to keep the ring a secret from our significant other. So, instead of waiting until the holiday season, proposers go ahead as soon as the engagement rings are in their hands.

It’s not too late yet!

As you saw, now is the perfect time to propose and you have until Valentine’s Day to get the desired ‘yes’ you are expecting, especially if you go for one of our lovely and contemporary engagement ring designs. Simply visit our Hatton Garden Shop to have a look at them and many more to find the right jewellery piece for your special one.

But in recent years, gender-neutral trends have taken the world by storm, even among the big names in the fashion business.

These days famous designer labels like Givenchy, Gucci, and the rest are producing clothing that says no to the binary approach to gender identities. And they are also creating clothing items that can be worn by both males and females equally.

Many people believe that this bold step asserted its support of gender equality in an industry that believed that the two opposite genders should stick to their respective spheres.

Jewellery has started adapting to this trend and we can see that fashion brands are expanding to the jewellery market. Many JewelStreet designers have shown a strong desire for their jewellery designs to be attractive to both males and females.

Here are some benefits of establishing a gender neutral-based marketing and sales system:

It supports equality

Designers have decided to open the gender barriers to promote equality among sexes. Our culture is slowly adapting to gender identities and equality. By contributing to the abolition of polarizing gender categories, they are, in turn promoting a more accepting and inclusive society. Mostly, our clothing and jewellery signify our identity. While buying jewellery from a ‘gender-neutral’ or ‘unisex’ range, it might not seem like a big effort for promoting gender equality. But in reality, that simple move symbolizes a way of accepting people the way they are, irrespective of their gender.

It allows people to express themselves

Should a woman not be allowed to wear a signet ring because it has been seen as a male item? Or should a man not be able to wear a floral brooch because floral designs are recognized as females’ items? This should not be so, because individuals should have the freedom to express themselves through their clothing and jewellery. Jewellery was considered a symbol of status in previous eras. However, if the jewellery is recognized today as a tool used in expressing one’s self, why should gender categories constrain such expressions?

It is on-trend

Presently, cuts, styles, and shapes are changing in fashion. Traditional laws are gradually being erased by the millennial philosophy that does not believe in gender convention. Men’s jewellery is no longer conformed to only tie pins, cufflinks and watches; they can also put on rings, necklaces and bracelets. It is not an exception to the ladies too. A rapidly rising number of female shoppers are now going for rugged and typically masculine designs of jewellery. When looking to get a new piece of jewellery, most people now lean towards the unisex aesthetic.

Gender Neutral Jewellery

There is a noticeable change recognizable in the purchasing habits of jewellery customers. People are no longer bothered about whether or not a particular piece of jewellery is made for men or women, but what wearing that piece says about them.

This is why jewellers have to rethink and plan their sales approach because, in the future, most people will prefer jewellery that is more gender-neutral and can be worn by both genders.

Especially traditional jewellery stores will find this transition difficult as most of them are managed by predominantly male old-school jewellers, who will still treat customers on gender-based terms, e.g. assuming women don’t know much about jewellery and only spend their partner’s money or mainly focusing on the male customer as the one paying.

Hannah, owner of jewellery shop Ovadia in London’s Hatton Garden knows this too well through reports from her customers. She explains: “Many female shoppers come to our shop, telling us that the male jewellers they visited previously undermined them and didn’t take their questions or requests seriously. At Ovadia, both men and women are considered equal and we pay attention to their wishes and desires regardless of their gender.”

Ovadia Jewellery offers a wide range of engagement and wedding rings that are suitable for both genders. They custom design jewellery in their Hatton Garden shop to ensure any individual styles and wishes are considered. They also offer jewellery for the LGBT community as they strongly feel that jewellery should reflect every individual’s personality, which can’t be categorized.

So, it is excellent for making proposals too.

It is just filled with great opportunities to pop the big question. From digging into your stocking to the first snowfall (fingers crossed) and even decorating the tree – every day and every activity is filled with fun and excitement.

But with all the anticipation and celebrations involved, planning the perfect Christmas proposal can be tricky, just as finding the perfect engagement ring is. Of course, you would want to make sure that your Christmas wedding proposal stands out and is unique, but most especially that your partner loves it and finds it memorable.

Our wedding jewellery experts at Ovadia Jewellery have compiled a few ideas some of their customers have shared with them in this article. Christmas is a busy time at our Hatton Garden jewellery shop not just for wedding jewellery shopping, but jewellery gift ideas. Hopefully, our suggestions will inspire you to hand over your jewellery surprise in a unique and memorable way this Christmas.

How to propose on Christmas

Propose at a Christmas tree farm

Having a Christmas tree proposal is splendid. Select and decorate a tree at your local farm/garden for your proposal. Make it your own, get home, grab your coat and scarf, and do not forget your ring and partner. Go back to the tree farm and lead your partner to your tree while your spouse-to-be is in for the surprise of their life.

12 days of Christmas proposal

This proposal is terrific because there are many ways you can go about it: you can find gifts that represent each of the traditional gifts.

Christmas gift proposal

This is one of the most popular ways to propose to your partner. You put the custom-made engagement ring in a box and present it to your partner as a Christmas gift.

This proposal can be done with family and friends present or just privately, depending on what you and your partner prefer.

Family gathering proposal

Thus, the next time you search for “ring repair near me,” you can trust Ovadia Jewellery as a good option and they’re located in the heart of London so you could just drop and collect it on the go.

Do extensive research

Once you type the phrase “jewellery repair near me” on Google, you will be overwhelmed with the results received. Apart from having a high sentimental value for you, any piece of jewellery had cost you money when you bought it. So, it is normal not to trust anyone who says that they can fix it.

There are various tips that you can use to find the best jewellery repair professional for your needs. You can create a shortlist with the places identified when you did the first search. Once you have 3-5 craftsmen that seem to be trustful, you can ask your friends and relatives whether they have worked with any of them.
