The end of the year is a time of reflection, resolution, and preparation for that new year fitness plan we never quite seem to follow through with. For some of us however, the final month of the year is an opportunity to ring in the new year with wedding bells. According to an article from Instoremag.com, a study found that 16% of all marriage proposals happen during the month of December, making it the most popular month of the year to pop the question! So if you're preparing to ask for that special someone's hand in matrimony or maybe YOU are that special someone that's anxiously waiting for the time and place, you've probably spent hours searching high and low for the perfect ring. While on your hunt, consider veering off the path of the traditional solitaire diamond ring and shift towards something a little more unique and especially befitting for the future bride. Check out some of our favorite nontraditional wedding rings!

If you're looking for something a little more eccentric that still exhibits that "notice me" wedding ring motif, consider this stunning blue topaz ring bordered by 14K white gold diamonds. The transparent Cinderella blue hue in the topaz gemstone is the perfect accent color to any white wedding gown.
