A romantic and meaningful engagement ring idea is to choose a ring with the birthstone of your husband-to-be. The sentiment behind the choice makes the ring all the more meaningful and special. Birthstone engagement rings also are a very economically friendly idea; you can get the style and quality of ring you desire at a fraction of a price by avoiding a diamond as your center stone. Unless, of course, your future fiancé happens have a birthday in the month of April and then you're back to the classic diamond ring.
I chose a blue topaz and silver ring for my engagement/wedding ring. My husband's birthday is near the end of November which makes his birthstone topaz. Technically, November topaz is typically a golden yellow but I did not want that as the color of my stone. Upon doing further research, the birthstones of November are topaz and citrine; the topaz is typically associated with the golden yellow color however any color topaz is accurately, a November birthstone. December also has a birthstone of topaz; traditionally associated with the blue version. Facts are facts and stones are stones so I believe if the birthday in question falls in either the month of November or December, feel completely free to choose whichever color of stone you prefer.
