Are there signs your soulmate is thinking of you? Maybe there’s this hottie you’re totally interested in — and you think (and hope!) he is your soulmate who might be really into you.  Or you have been dating someone for several months and you are wondering if he is thinking of you as the special…

So, to help you decide whether proposing with a loose diamond is a good idea, here we will discuss all the ins and outs: from the key benefits to the important things to consider and how to actually do it.

Let us first discuss the key benefits of proposing with a loose diamond.

The Benefits of Proposing With a Loose Diamond

Is proposing with a loose diamond actually a good idea? Let us take a look at some key benefits:

• Satisfying her individual style

No matter how close we are as a partner, we know that all of us won’t be able to understand our spouse’s personal tastes. With a loose diamond, we can let her create her dream ring with our stone as the centerpiece. This way, the engagement ring will be a precious memento of your collaborative effort.

• Using your budget wiser

There are two main factors when choosing an engagement ring: your budget and what she wants. By proposing with a loose diamond, you can control your available budget better, since you won’t need to spend more money on modifications, re-sizing, or even a complete overhaul.

• More opportunities for personalization, make the ring truly HERS

With a loose diamond proposal, your bride-to-be has the maximum freedom to personalize the ring. An engagement should be about a personal, individual style, and here you can take the utmost advantage of personalization.

• She knows best
  “Knowledge is paramount”- Odyssey, and she is the one with the best knowledge about the ring she actually needs.
  

When planning to propose with a loose diamond, it is very important to find a jeweler with at least one in-house certified gemologist. Your main focus here is the stone, and so you would want to learn as much as you can about diamond stones, gemstones, and diamond stimulants among other things. The more you know, the better you can make an informed purchase decision, and a certified gemologist can help you with this.

A certified gemologist can explain all the important characteristics of a diamond beyond the 4Cs, and can help you choose the most suitable diamond or gemstone for your bespoke ring. Remember that gemstones, both moissanites (lab-manufactured gemstones) and genuine gemstones are also trending alternatives to diamond in 2019.

A collaboration with the certified jeweler can help you get the expected result and great overall experience. Later on, your bride-to-be can also work with the same jeweler to design the ring, that will safe money, time, and effort. With this arrangement, you can also get the best matching rings from the same jeweler (an engagement ring, your wedding band, and her matching wedding ring).

Now let’s talk setting, food and fun. Movie nights usually consist of junk foods, dark rooms and plenty of pillows to go around. But with the magic of love in the air, we recommend adding a little Christmas spirit with decorations and plenty of mistletoe. Keep the room dark and comfy, but make sure your tree is lit or that there are lights hung to give the room a nice glow. Enhance the food table with a tablecloth and scattered candy canes, Forrero Rocher, Hershey’s kisses and seasonal Reese’s cups. You can even make naughty and nice cocktails. This romantic movie night can be as fun or sexy as you want it to be. Every couple is different, so keep an open mind and read-on for more ideas on how to make this holi-date one to remember. 

The New Couple

This pair is in the beginning stages of their romance. With only a few dates under their belt, this evening would be the kickstart to their intimacy. They don’t mind a little romantic ambiance, but they want to have fun and see where the night goes. 

Attire 

Plan to wear your favorite holiday shirt or ugly sweater and have matching Christmas socks you both can wear that night. Keep things fun by adding antlers or a Rudolph nose to your look and be camera ready for a not-so-impromptu photo-op during the slow parts of your movie. 

Food & Drink

Order in! Delivery services are a God-sent during cold winter nights. Spend more time with your date and less time preparing dinner. Decide what you both want, and have it delivered as soon as or before he arrives. If your takeout arrives late, be prepared with a meat or veggie tray and a bottle of wine. You can even make a few sugar cookie Jell-O shots beforehand to settle any nerves you and your new boo may have. 

The Casual Couple

This couple is all about comfort and joy. These two are in a loving, steady relationship but could really use a romantic date to relax and enjoy each other’s company. 

Attire

Wear matching pajamas! Now before you roll your eyes or stop reading because you think it’s a corny (but cute) idea, hear us out. It doesn’t have to be the holiday-pattern pajamas you see couples on social media wearing. While there are some nice, couple-friendly ones available, you can also wear a silk gown or shorts set and get matching boxers or pants set for him. There are tons of choices and all are easy to put on and take off! 

If your romantic pajama movie night gets a little boring, have a few games lined up to play. The whipped cream bubble gum challenge is a little messy but lots of fun; and there’s jingle bell toss (beer pong w/ spiked eggnog) or naughty/nice sensual couples’ games to add a little vava voom to your evening. Whatever you do, keep things fun and go with the flow of your evening. Spending time together is all that matters. 

Food & Drink

Have a smorgasbord of holiday goodies for you and your baby love. Your spread should include but not be limited to holiday Chex Mix, Christmas kiss cookies, popcorn, and your favorite pizzas. To make your stress-free movie night complete, have holly-jolly punch, peppermint cocktails or hot chocolate milkshakes prepared and ready at a moment’s notice. 

The Couple of Love Birds 

This dynamic duo has been in it for the long haul. They’re no strangers to intimacy but have fallen into a comfortable routine that rarely includes date nights. This couple needs a romantic night (or weekend) to reignite their passion for each other. 

Attire 

Surprise and seduce your love with a sexy outfit that will stop him in his tracks. Pair a Santa hat with red, black or white lingerie or grab a naughty Mrs. Clause costume. Either way, you want to make sure he won’t be able to keep his eyes (or hands) off you for long. Have a little something for him too. Santa boxers or peekaboo holiday-themed underwear are perfect options. 

Food & Drink 

Set the mood with frozen grapes, chocolate covered strawberries and champagne! Who says you need to wait until Valentine’s Day? Enjoy these sweet treats throughout the night. 

You lovers should start your movie night with a candlelit dinner. This can be steak and lobster, chicken Parmesan, stir fry or your favorite dish. The meal itself is less important than the ambiance you create. Make a playlist beforehand that includes your favorite slow jams and Christmas love songs—keep it playing through dinner. And for dessert? Well you of course!

During your movie marathon, you may want to give him a massage or have him rub your feet. With you in sexy lingerie and him half naked, you two may not even make it through the first movie without a little lovemaking—that’s one way to get on Santa’s Nice List.
