There's a whole jungle of misconceptions out there, and we're here to be your myth-busting safari guides. We've even whipped up a swanky video guide over on our YouTube channel. So, if you're up for a crash course on finding that oh-so-perfect engagement ring, watch the video below or peruse our channel for some other carats of wisdom!
the "two months' salary" rule
Let's tackle a classic myth together - the whole "two months' salary" deal for engagement rings. Spoiler alert: it's just a myth, and you don't need to break the bank!
The truth is, there's no magical number for ring spending. It's your love story, your budget, your rules! The real magic of an engagement ring isn't in the price tag; it's in the commitment it represents. Forget about keeping up with anyone's expectations - focus on finding a ring that fits your style and wallet while radiating all the love and connection you share. After all, it's the love that shines, not the digits on the price tag!



Diamonds aren't the only way to go
Picture your dream engagement ring... What comes to mind? Most likely, it's a dazzling diamond stealing the spotlight. But, my fellow ring explorers, hold onto your hats because the gemstone game is getting a makeover!
Enter sapphires, tourmalines, and salt & pepper diamonds – oh my! These colourful beauties are here to shake things up. Not only are they unique and eye-catching, but they also won't break the bank as much as their sparkly counterparts.
Your engagement ring is your canvas for self-expression, so why not go bold with a gemstone that speaks to your soul? At Jessica Flinn, we've got a treasure trove of gemstones to match your vibe and make your ring truly one-of-a-kind.

The Proposal doesn't have to be One sided
Forget that age-old tale that proposals are solely a man's duty. It's a new era, baby! Love has no labels, no gender constraints, and no boundaries.
Let's get real, love is a magical adventure that two souls embark upon, hand in hand. Proposing should be open to everyone, no matter who you are or who you love! Love's a powerful force that brings hearts together, and it's high time we celebrate it in all its glory.

Don't let these myths hinder your search for the perfect engagement or wedding ring. Remember, the true value of an engagement ring lies in the love and meaning it carries, not in meeting societal expectations or traditions. So go ahead and explore the vast world of engagement rings with an open mind and heart.
