Sure, why not?
That’s the short answer. He’s a long answer:
Proposing with a temporary ring can be a good option for a number of reasons, including:
Surprise: You can keep the proposal a surprise while still involving your partner in the process of buying a ring. When you use a temporary engagement ring to propose, you can create a really romantic, over-the-top proposal (if that’s what you like) without having to worry about getting the ring right. You handle the proposal as a separate thing and then your partner can be involved in the decision making about the ring. In this way, you don’t have to worry at all about finding hints or blowing the surprise with questions.
Reduced anxiety: You can avoid the stress of choosing the perfect ring and focus on making the proposal special. That’s one way the anxiety is smaller with a temporary ring. There are other ways, too, though. There can be delays with an engagement ring. Perhaps you’re ready to propose and you’ve got it all planned. Imagine you set up the reservations, the flowers, and all the rest. But you have no ring! You can avoid all that stress by using a temporary ring.
Better Focus on Commitment: A temporary ring can symbolize your commitment to each other and make the proposal more memorable. Knowing it’s a placeholder and not the final ring means the proposal isn’t about the ring. It’s not something that can be measured in dollars, cents, and carat weight. On the contrary, it’s purely symbolic between two people who love each other.
Input: As a third-generation jeweler, this is the benefit of a temporary ring that really appeals to me. When you use a temporary ring, you have the opportunity to let your partner be involved with the actual engagement ring design. In this way, the ring really reflects the kind of collaborative effort you want not only for the ring but for your entire marriage.
