Past, Present, and Future Rings

You’ve surely seen women wearing three-stone diamond engagement rings, with a large center stone accented on either side by two smaller gemstones. These are known as past, present, and future rings that are sometimes referred to as forever, trilogy, or trinity rings. They’re incredibly popular and stylish for any bride-to-be, not to mention these three stones are packed full of symbolism.

Past, present, and future rings are designed to be a symbolic representation of the stages of life that you and your partner have shared together and will no doubt continue to build upon as you journey into marriage. Each stone speaks to a moment in your relationship, all of the memories you have made with each other, and all of the wonderful moments you’ll surely share as you advance through life side by side. There is no gesture more romantic than proposing to your loved one with a forever ring. It demonstrates your lifelong commitment to your partner and to building a life together that can withstand the tests of time.

Religious symbolism of trinity rings

To many, marriage is significant to their religious values and beliefs. Three-stoned diamond engagement rings are in many cases believed to be a representation of these beliefs. Each of the three stones depicts the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, hence the name trinity ring. If you and your loved one hold religion dear, it may be worth considering a trinity ring for your bride as a gesture of your dedication to both her and your faith.

There are a number of ways to make a three-stone engagement ring even more special and personalized but choosing a custom ring is the #1 way. Many forever rings feature round brilliant cut diamonds with smaller diamonds on both sides, or even colored gemstones such as deep blue sapphires or rubies set as side accoutrements. You can always choose a gemstone that is special to her or significant to your relationship together, such as the gemstone that corresponds with her birthday month or the month you went on your first date. For further personalization, you could use stones that have sentimental value to you or your loved one. For example, Prince Harry most recently proposed to wife Meghan Markle with a three-stone engagement ring fashioned with diamonds from his mother, Princess Diana’s, personal collection.  There is also room for customization when it comes to the ring band with a variety of metals to choose from and details like engraving that can be added for an extra special touch. Past, present, and future rings are not necessarily only found in contemporary designs either, but can be vintage styles as well.

Why choose a three-stone ring over a solitaire?

In addition to past, present, and future rings being incredibly romantic and symbolic, they are often a great choice for those trying to stay on budget. They’re usually priced a little cheaper because they feature three smaller sized stones rather than one large diamond. The two smaller diamonds flanking the center stone give the illusion that the center stone is larger than it really is, meaning your ring will sparkle and glitter exactly as you want it to, but without putting a huge dent in your pocket!
