How to Choose Your Own Engagement Ring
I Chose My Own Engagement Ring, and It Was the Best Decision Ever

Just because you've decided to buy your ring together that doesn't mean your partner has to miss out on the surprise of popping the question. A placeholder ring is the perfect solution, whether it's a ring from a cracker box, a gummy sweet or a piece of costume jewellery from your favourite designer. You're saying "I do" to the person holding the box, not what's hidden inside. Just remember, even after you've said yes, don't eat your gummy ring. It's been hidden in a sock drawer for two months.
