Would you propose to your beau?  I was doing research today and was surprised to find that there are so many people searching for mens engagement rings - who knew it was becoming popular to buy an engagement ring for your man?  There was even a term for it: a Mengagement ring! When I shared what I discovered today with my beau he looked at me across the dinner table, “I do not want an engagement ring.  Do not get any ideas.”  If I could insert a laugh into this post I would, because he knows me so well.  I probably would buy him one! (but only if he proposed first)

But is it fair that women get the only pre-wedding bling? I mean why do we get “marked” as off limits while our men get to still (innocently) flirt? And besides, it isn’t emasculating to wear a men’s engagement ring - the Irish have done it for centuries with the Claddah ring a ring which is traditionally worn by men on their left hand with the heart pointing up to signify their engaged status (and subsequently the heart points down upon marriage).  Even in Finland, it is popular for the couple to purchase two bands upon their engagement (which they both wear) - and only the bride gets a second ring upon the actual wedding.

So whether you’ve been patiently waiting for him to propose, or if he’s proposed and you want to get him something in return - or perhaps your a gay or alternative lifestyle couple and would like to propose - there are plenty of options out there for you!  Here are some of the more classic and unique options I’ve found:

25 Great Mens Engagement Rings

Without too much bling, you could give him a traditional Round Solitaire Mens Engagement Ring like this one above. Classic in style, simple and sophisticated any man would love to wear it.

This Modern Square Engagement Ring for men has a a more contemporary feel with its two princess cut stones in a bezel setting. It also doesn’t “scream” engagement ring but looks like an upscale mens fashion ring.

For a man who is a little edgier this industrial designed brushed metal diamond ringhas just enough bling without drawing attention to itself.  I love the open metalwork design and clean lines.

If you’re looking to splurge this double row eternity men’s ring with brushed gold is masculine and refined.

If two rows of diamonds are just too much, this single row diamond men’s eternity band is a handsome alternative.

If you’re looking for something more subtle then this inlay and diamond mens band ring features a real diamond at a fraction of the price at under $200! But if black isn’t your color then it’s also available in

Blue Sapphire with a price tag under $100!

With rose gold being so popular recently, I fell in love with this simple, yet stunning, 14k gold with 14k rose gold groove and solitaire mens diamond ring.

If you love the look of carbon inlay, but want a bit more sparkle, or if you’re beau is a little more rock n’ roll, this stunning channel set black diamond men’s eternity band will suit him well. But it may not suit your wallet at nearly 5k.

This Eternity Links Diamond Wedding Band can also double as can also double as a mens engagement ring

With a single solitaire diamond this Celtic engagement ring or wedding band is enhanced by an elegant Celtic Flat Knot pierced design which encircles the band.

Another handsome alternative is this elegant cobalt and black diamondring which shines without too much sparkle.
