Timeline, ring size hints, lifestyles, stacking wedding bands later, aftercare appointments.
Engagement choreography spans surprise logistics, heirloom integration, resizing math, cadence with wedding bands later, plus insurance appraisals aligned to lab documents.
Timeline playbook
- T‑8 weeks — lock centre stone reservation + hallmark planning.
- T‑6 weeks — confirm CAD renders + accent melee specs.
- T‑3 weeks — finishing + QC imagery + laser inscription QC.
- Receipt — resize window + polishing coverage + insurance rider docs.
Surprises without horror stories
- Borrow ring for tracing / bar mandrel sizing.
- Document favourite Pinterest boards pre-proposal—they beat guess-and-regret.
- Order slightly conservative size; complimentary resize policies often favour upsizing.
