How do you find out your partner’s ring size? Good question! Here are a few ideas that have proven to be successful.
Ask the accomplices (their best friend or mom)
If your partner thinks you may be about to pop the question, they will make certain they know the right ring size.
Use a ring they currently wear
–Take a ring that they wear (preferably on her engagement ring finger) and slide it onto your finger. Use a marker and draw a line on your finger at the top and bottom where the ring stops. Then go to your jeweler to have your finger sized.
–You could also use a tapered candle by sliding her ring down and making small marks into the candle, above and below where her ring stops. Don’t forget to wipe off the candle wax before you return the ring to her jewelry box.
Have you ever been into a jewelry store together?
Did your partner try the rings on from the case? Did they fit? Most stores carry a stock size ranging from 6 – 7 for women, size 9 – 10 for men. If you know they were able to slide the rings on with no problem, you could leave the ring stock size and then adjust the size after the proposal. It’s okay for the ring to be a little big when you propose–too small on the other hand is a whole other story.
Here are more ring sizing tips to help you along the way. Good luck!
