You’ve realized that Christmas or New Year’s is the perfect time for your romantic proposal! But you don’t yet have a ring. You might see advice online about proposing with a temporary ring but Robbins Brothers has got the ring of your dreams available today!

We carefully select the ideal center stone for each preset engagement ring. Our stores are stocked with a wide assortment of these beautiful rings that are ready for you with the perfect center stone. Stop by or make an appointment and we can help you find exactly what you’re looking for and you can take it home with you today! Our preset engagement rings are pre-mounted and ready to buy. 

What’s the Difference Between a Preset Ring and an Engagement Ring Setting?

An engagement ring setting is a ring that doesn’t include the center stone and you choose the diamond to complete the ring. A preset engagement ring includes the center stone, carefully chosen to complement the ring setting.

Both are great options and result in a sparkling engagement ring with a high quality center stone. You’ll never sacrifice diamond quality at Robbins Brothers with either choice. We select only 1 in 10 diamonds we see and all of our diamonds have a lifetime guarantee.

We have both natural diamond and lab diamond rings to choose from in a variety of setting styles, metals, and diamond shapes, so no matter what ring she’s been dreaming of, we can help you find it in time for your romantic holiday proposal.

Sparking Solitaire Lab-Grown Diamond Engagement Rings

If you’re looking for a solitaire engagement ring, all you have to do is decide on which diamond shape (and it’s a hard choice since they’re all so dazzling!). Below are examples of oval, emerald cut, cushion cut, and round brilliant lab-grown diamonds.

Side Stone Diamond Engagement Ring

A side stone diamond engagement ring includes accent diamonds on either side of the center stone. These can be pavé diamonds that encircle the band or can be a smaller number of accent stones (similar to a three stone ring).

Tips for a Last Minute Holiday Proposal

Looking for tips for a romantic proposal? We can help! Stop in and we can help you plan the perfect moment.

  • Remember that the most important part of the proposal is the moment between the two of you. It can be simple and heartfelt and doesn’t need to be elaborate.
  • Consider a location that has special meaning to both of you – this could be where you had your first date or beside your fireplace at home where you talk long into the night.
  • If family is important to you, the holidays can be a great time to include them in the proposal since you’re likely to be together already. Consider proposing on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning when everyone is gathered around the tree.
  • New year’s eve can be a wonderful time to propose as you can start the new year together, knowing you’ll be together for a lifetime.

Come into your local Robbins Brothers today and take the perfect ring home with you! Don’t see the ring for you? We can help you plan the perfect proposal, complete with an appointment with us so you can pick out the perfect ring together.
