The Best Engagement Ring Boxes to Avoid a Big Mistake

Wondering what kind of ring box to use for your engagement? Need wedding ring boxes for the wedding day itself? You’ve come to the right place! Read on and find out how you could win one of the best engagement ring boxes on this blog post.

What are the best engagement ring boxes to use for the ceremony? And what is this big mistake you could be making without realizing it? Great questions! Let’s explain.

What Are the Best Engagement Ring Boxes?

First, the box you choose should be sturdy, align with your wedding formality and tone, and be in a color that suits your palette. Sounds simple enough, right?

The most popular choices are velvet ring boxes, which are formal enough for weddings and also work as perfect engagement ring boxes.

A velvet ring box is versatile: it can incorporate your color palette and you can customize it with your name, monogram, or “Mr” / “Mrs”. I love the look of the monogram ring boxes the most!

In addition, a proper box designed to hold rings will serve as a safe place to hold the rings until the big moment at the ceremony.

As a bonus, velvet makes for a great textural element in wedding photographs, so it’s an excellent photo prop. :) These are all attributes that easily make velvet boxes the best engagement ring boxes you can buy.

But that’s not all: picking the wrong ring box is one big wedding mistake that many couples make, yet they never really think about it before the big day and it is so avoidable. How does it really impact your ceremony? Allow us to explain.

How Ring Boxes Avoid a Big Mistake

You see, many couples choose a ring pillow, per tradition, simply because it’s the classic go-to option. I even used a ring pillow for my wedding (although I didn’t know about these velvet ring boxes then). Some couples think outside the box and choose a ring nest, a ring dish, or even a tray like this.

And while all of these options are lovely and fun and thematic, they all lack one very important thing: a lid.

Why does a lid on a ring box matter? Let’s dig even deeper.

Help! I Can’t Get the Rings Free

At your ceremony, the ring bearer will walk down the aisle holding your ring pillow (or another vessel). He will bring the ring pillow to the Best Man who typically sets it on a stand nearby until the wedding vows are recited during the proper Order of Events.

But the rings sit there, tied to a ribbon, until the big moment: the vows.

Now, this is something you may think is no big deal until the vows are being recited and the priest, pastor, rabbi, or officiant asks, “May I have the rings?”

Then, the Best Man struggles to untie a tiny little knot that was lovingly tied to keep the rings attached, but so tight you can’t get them free. He’s sweating, the ceremony is paused, and he’s trying to free those rings from the ribbon in record time.

This happens often, and really, it’s something that can be avoided. If you choose a velvet ring box with a lid, your rings are kept securely inside until the big moment, easily removed, and there’s a lid so there’s no worry about the rings being dropped mid-aisle.

Velvet ring boxes don’t break easily, either, which often happens when a glass ring dish is used during the ceremony. If it is dropped, no sweat; the box is kept intact and it’s virtually silent on the floor (versus a crash of glass, yikes!)

Does a Ring Box Matter?

A ring box does matter! Of course, the engagement ring matters the most; however, a proper box to hold the ring for the engagement adds to a more stunning presentation. If you’re seeking a box for a proposal, you’ll definitely want to buy the best one you can.

A ring box also matters for the ceremony. You need some sort of container for the rings, especially if you’re having a ring bearer. A box creates a nice and secure place to hold the rings.

Top Engagement Ring Boxes for Weddings

Now that you know why this type of vessel makes these the best engagement ring boxes, let’s check out some of our favorite ones. We spotted these ring boxes at Liron Trésor who takes pride in this beautiful collection by offering the latest wedding colors, trends, and shapes.

These wedding ring boxes are so lovely, you’ll find yourself displaying them on your nightstand or dresser as a place to store your ring when you’re washing dishes, painting, showering, working out, etc. and you don’t want to mess up your ring (or lose it).

Choose between one ring or a double-ring slot for the box so you can use just one (or one for you and one for your spouse). This hexagon shape is wildly popular and unique.

There’s even a triple ring box option to hold your wedding ring, engagement ring, and your spouse’s wedding band.
