While you might prefer to keep the actual engagement proposal a surprise for your partner, consider shopping for an engagement ring together. This will ensure that your partner gets a ring she will truly love. If you don't want to shop together for a ring, think about the style of jewelry she wears—is it elaborate, or more classic? If you need to know her ring size, try to borrow a ring she has worn recently; take it to a jeweler to be measured. Be sure to confirm that your engagement ring will be ready in time for your planned proposal.
