Many couples know nothing about buying jewelry.
To further add to the confusion, diamonds have various types of gradings. Preference can also be a factor in the decision of which ring to purchase. In some cases, this is left entirely up to the person proposing marriage. In other cases, the couple makes the decision together. Whether it is left up to the person proposing or the couple makes joint decisions in regard to the engagement ring, the entire process can be confusing.
