As our beautiful cities of White Rock and Surrey begin to bloom with cherry blossoms and spring sunshine returns, something else is quietly in season — engagement and wedding ring season.
March marks the beginning of proposal planning across White Rock, South Surrey, and the Lower Mainland. Warmer weather, longer days, and romantic spring settings make it the perfect time to start preparing for that unforgettable moment.
If you’re thinking about proposing this spring or summer, now is the time to begin.
At Rochells Jewellers in Semiahmoo Mall and Central City, we help couples every year navigate the journey — from first idea to the final “yes.”

Here’s your step-by-step guide to getting started.
Step 1: Decide What Style Fits Your Partner
Before choosing a diamond, start with style.
Ask yourself:
Does she prefer yellow gold, white gold, or rose gold?
Does she wear minimalist jewellery or statement pieces?
Does she love timeless classics or modern trends?
Has she saved inspiration on Instagram or Pinterest?
At Rochells, we carry a wide selection of finished diamond engagement rings in gold and platinum, so you can see styles in person. Trying rings on (or bringing a trusted friend for advice) helps narrow down what truly fits her personality.
Step 2: Choose Between Natural and Lab-Grown Diamonds
One of the biggest shifts we’re seeing in 2026 is the rise of lab-grown diamonds.
Lab diamonds are:
Chemically and visually identical to mined diamonds
More affordable
Conflict-free
Lower environmental impact
Many couples in White Rock and South Surrey are choosing lab-grown diamonds because they allow for a larger stone within the same budget — without compromising beauty or durability.
At Rochells, we show natural and lab-grown diamonds side-by-side so you can compare sparkle, size, and value.
Step 3: Set a Comfortable Budget
Forget the outdated “three months’ salary” rule.
The right ring fits your life — not a formula.
Whether you're looking for:
A beautifully crafted diamond ring under a specific budget
A larger statement piece
A custom-designed engagement ring
We’ll help you find something meaningful and within your comfort zone.
Rochells also offers financing options, making it easier to choose the ring you truly want without added stress.
Step 4: Choose Ready-Made or Custom Design
You have two great options at Rochells:
Option A: Select a Finished Ring
If you’re working with a timeline, we have a large selection of finished diamond engagement rings and gold jewellery pieces available immediately.
This is ideal for:
Surprise proposals
Spring events
Upcoming travel proposals
Quick turnarounds
Option B: Create a Custom Engagement Ring
Want something truly one-of-a-kind?
Our custom design process allows you to:
Select your diamond (natural or lab-grown)
Choose the setting style
Customize metal type
Adjust band details
Custom engagement rings typically require 2–4 weeks, so March is the perfect time to begin if you’re planning a late spring or summer proposal.
Step 5: Think Ahead to Wedding Bands
If you’re planning a summer 2026 wedding, now is also the ideal time to explore wedding bands in White Rock or Surrey.
At Rochells, we carry:
Women’s diamond bands and curved bands
Classic and modern gold bands
Malo men’s wedding bands known for comfort and durability
Ordering early ensures proper sizing and allows time for custom adjustments.
