Top 10 Cheap Proposal Rings That Get a Yes Every Time

Let’s face it, proposing is one of life’s biggest moments, but that doesn’t mean you have to spend thousands to make it special. Whether you're jetting off on a surprise holiday, planning a last-minute proposal, or just not sure what style she’ll love most, a cheap proposal ring is often the smartest and most stress-free choice.

At Travel Ring Co, we specialise in elegant, budget-friendly rings that look just like the real thing. All of our best-selling designs come in both gold and silver, making it easy to find something she’ll adore no matter your budget or timeline.

When Is a Cheap Proposal Ring the Right Choice?

There are so many reasons couples choose a more affordable ring for the big question and it’s not about compromising. Here’s why it might be the best decision you make:

  • Proposing while travelling? A lower cost ring means less stress if it gets lost, damaged or stolen, and it’s also much easier to hide during travel or surprise proposals.
  • Not sure what she likes? Choosing a placeholder ring means you can focus on the moment now and take your time selecting the perfect forever ring together later.
  • She thinks she loves a certain cut or size? Let her test it in real life before you invest in the forever ring.
  • Saving for a more expensive piece? There’s no reason to wait. Propose now, upgrade later.
  • Leaving soon or planning a last-minute trip?  As a Sydney-based store with no lead times, our rings are ready to ship so you’re never caught without one.
  • Experiencing jeweller delays or mishaps? A backup ring means your proposal timeline stays intact.
