Thinking of proposing to your partner this year and the idea of ring shopping is stressing you out? Well, you have come to the right place! Check out the top engagement ring trends for 2023 below to give you some guidance on all things trending.
First things first, you have to know if your partner is a gold or silver person. Then, you will need to find out their favourite diamond shape and if they want any custom elements.
Oval Cut Diamonds
Propose to your partner with one of the most sought-after diamond shapes that is certain to catch everyone’s eye! Oval diamonds are the new craze and are rapidly rising in popularity, and for good reason; they are beyond beautiful! (And we’re not just saying that because they are our personal favourite!) Don’t believe us? Some of our favourite jewellers including Parade Jewellers and Simon Curwood Jewellers couldn’t agree more! They shared with us that oval shaped diamonds are at the top of engagement ring trends for 2023! Why? Because, oval shapes can be so versatile. So, if your partner is all about elegance, then a plain gold or silver band will be the perfect match to the large diamond and will suit their style perfectly. If your partner is someone who loves all things glamour and sparkles, a full diamond band is the best way to go.

Lab Grown Diamonds
Interested in sourcing a more ethical and eco-friendly option? Lab grown diamonds have been soaring the ladder of popularity in the engagement ring industry! We spoke to Parade Jewellers and Simon Curwood Jewellers and they shared that this is one of their most popular requests of 2023 so far! Lab grown diamonds look the exact same as natural diamonds to the naked eye. Lab grown diamonds are also perfect if you’re not wanting to spend an exorbitant amount on the ring (save some for the proposal setting!). The price can be reduced by up to 50% in comparison to natural diamonds because there is no wait time for the growing and mining process. You can learn more about lab grown diamonds here.
Radiant Cut Diamonds
Another style of diamond we have seen a lot of lately is the radiant shape. These diamond engagement rings look so delicate and exquisite on the hand. If your partner has a vibrant personality, this might just be the diamond shape for them! Parade Jewellers told us that this shape has been highly requested this year. The shape looks so classy, and adds levels of elegance to make it stand out from all the other diamond cuts.
