How to Choose the Best Engagement Ring in the Philippines: A Practical Guide for Filipino Couples
Choosing an engagement ring is one of the most meaningful purchases you will ever make. But for many Filipino couples, the process can feel overwhelming. Should you choose diamond or moissanite? Is 18k gold better than 14k? How much should an engagement ring cost in the Philippines? At Endless Charms in Angeles City, we guide hundreds of couples every year through these exact questions.
This guide breaks everything down in simple, practical terms so you can choose an engagement ring that fits your budget, lifestyle, and love story.
How Much Should an Engagement Ring Cost in the Philippines?
The old "three months salary rule" does not always fit Filipino reality. Today, most couples in the Philippines spend based on what feels comfortable and practical.

Diamond vs Moissanite: What Filipino Buyers Should Know
One of the biggest decisions is choosing between diamond and moissanite. Both are beautiful, but they differ in price, sparkle, and value.
Why Many Filipinos Choose Moissanite
- Looks almost identical to diamond
- More brilliant sparkle
- Costs 70–90% less than natural diamond
- Durable for everyday wear
- Ethical and conflict-free
About Natural and Lab-Grown Diamonds
- Classic and traditional symbol
- Higher price per carat
- Subtle sparkle compared to moissanite
- Better for buyers who value tradition
For couples who want beauty and value, many Endless Charms clients choose moissanite set in 18k gold as the perfect balance.
Which Gold is Best for Engagement Rings?
In the Philippines, gold purity matters not only for beauty but also for pawnability and long-term value.
18k Gold – The Most Recommended
- Durable for daily wear
- Highly pawnable nationwide
- Rich yellow color Filipinos love
- Strong long-term value
14k Gold – A Budget-Friendly Option
- More affordable price
- Harder metal for active lifestyle
- Slightly lower pawn value
If investment value matters, 18k yellow gold is the safest and most practical choice in the Philippines.
How to Choose Ring Size Without Ruining the Surprise
Many Filipino partners want the proposal to stay a secret. Here are simple ways to get the right size.
- Borrow a ring she already wears
- Ask her best friend or sister
- Use a printable ring sizer
- Choose a temporary adjustable ring
At Endless Charms, we offer free resizing so you do not need to worry about perfect sizing before the proposal.
