BEFORE YOU PICK YOUR VENUE, CHOOSE THE PERFECT ENGAGEMENT RING.
If there’s one thing at your wedding that is as important—if not more—than your venue, it’s your engagement ring. The perfect setting, cut, and style serves to showcase your love for one another in a unique and beautiful way.
At Finer Custom Engagement Rings and Diamonds, we’ve made it our mission to change how couples shop for diamonds. Instead of purchasing a ring that’s been mass-manufactured, you can work with our team to design the ring of your dreams.
Utilizing over three decades of expertise, we’ve changed our process to put the most important people at the center: the couple themselves. Our designers will work with you to educate you on the 4C’s—cut, clarity, color, and carat—and help you understand every detail and decision to make the entire ring-buying process more transparent. From there, we will design the perfect engagement ring and handcraft it just for you to make your engagement and big day unique, special, and representative of the love you share.
