Choosing the Ring
A destination proposal already has its own story, so the ring doesn’t need to feel ordinary. We especially love vintage engagement rings for proposals like these because every ring has its own history, character, and details that cannot simply be reproduced. Whether you’re drawn to an Art Deco diamond, an old mine cut, or a colorful gemstone, choose the ring that feels most like the person you’re giving it to.

Whatever setting you choose, the best proposal will be the one that feels personal to the two of you. Jamaica gives you everything from quiet beaches and tropical gardens to waterfalls and dramatic sunsets — the ring should feel just as individual. Our collection of authentic vintage engagement rings includes one-of-a-kind pieces from the Victorian, Edwardian, Art Deco, and Mid-Century eras, each with a history of its own.
A Note From Suzanne
For a destination proposal, I usually recommend choosing the ring before planning every last detail. Antique and vintage rings are one of a kind, so when you find the right one, there may not be another exactly like it later.
