Men in Northern Ireland Buy the Most Expensive Engagement Rings
Research into the buying habits of engagement rings has found that men in Northern Ireland are the highest spenders, according to a recent study.
The survey has been completed by marlowsdiamonds.com and has found that men in Northern Ireland spend £1,874 on average, showing that they are quite generous when it comes to buying their future bride-to-be an engagement ring.
Following closely behind, men in Scotland are said to spend £1,816 and men in London spend slightly less at around £1,681. Whereas, the survey suggests that men in Wales spend the least at a value of £603, with men in the East spending the second lowest amount (£955) on an engagement ring.
Deciding how much to spend is often quite personal although there is a traditional approach that a man should spend at least one month’s wage. As the average wage for men is £30,000 the survey also suggests that men are now spending less, which implies that they are spending more on the actual wedding ring for the day itself. However, it can be argued that it’s best to spend what you can realistically afford, as you wouldn’t want to get into unnecessary debt.
The most important part of buying a ring is to ensure that it is suitable to her personal taste and individual style. Looking at her existing jewellery collection is a great way to think of ideas as you will soon have a feel for whether she prefers traditional, or more modern styles and whether or not she prefers gold, silver or platinum.
Talking to her friends and family is also a great way to get hints about what kind of ring she will love. As an engagement ring is kept forever, it needs to be right so ensure that you take your time and choose it carefully.
