Bella and Edward, Twilight: From a Shimmering New Moon to the Sparkle of a Breaking Dawn

Whether you were and avid reader of the series, made sure to book cinema tickets to the midnight screening of every new movie in the franchise, or just enjoyed the frenzy around R.Patz and K.Stew, Twilight fever was inescapable. With all due respect to anyone who was ever Team Jacob, we know who was actual endgame. Bella Swan and Edward Cullen taught us all about forbidden love, sparkling skin and the perils of teenage angst, especially when you’ve been 17 for over a century (which, honestly, is a lot what being an adult feels like).

The engagement ring that Edward gives to Bella is a show-stopping, vintage, oval cluster ring with an array of sparkling diamonds. It’s bold, timeless, and perfect for the couple that’s, quite literally, forever young.

Rings to Eclipse all others: If you’re pining for Bella and Edward’s iconic romance, you might opt for a ring with a halo of tiny diamonds, mirroring the ferocious twinkle in Edward’s golden eyes (or, you know, his skin in the sunshine).

Think intricate designs with some of old-world glamour – after all, Mr. Cullen is over 100 years old.

Damon and Elena, The Vampire Diaries: Dark, Dangerous and Utterly Irresistible

Damon Salvatore and Elena Gilbert – the ultimate couple with chemistry that can set entire towns on fire (sometimes rather literally). Their romance is the stuff of legends: tortured, complicated and incredibly magnetic. Their engagement ring would need to match the intensity of their passion – think dark sapphires, black diamonds, or even a ring with a dramatic twist setting, symbolising the tangled web of love and centuries-old destiny.

The Couples of Mystic Falls: Let’s not forget the other vampy pairings that added spice to Mystic Falls – Stefan and Caroline’s unexpectedly sweet romance might call for a classic solitaire diamond ring with a modern twist, while Bonnie and Enzo, whose love that defied death itself, would call for something mystical and unique.

Sookie and Eric, True Blood: Fairy Dust and Viking Vows

Sookie Stackhouse and Eric Northman – a Southern belle with a splash of fairy magic and a Viking vampire with a penchant for leather trousers. Their love is raw, untamed and, at times, downright electric. They might not have been the couple we started out rooting for but by the end, it was all about them.

If they were to have ended up together, we imagine an engagement ring that’s both bold and ethereal: a large, pear shape diamond diamond surrounded by delicate engravings that look like fairy wings, or maybe enchanted emeralds set in platinum, reflecting the moonlit swamps of Bon Temps.

Let’s Not Forget Bill: Of course, we can’t overlook Sookie’s other important love interest, Bill Compton, whose Civil War-era gentlemanliness might inspire a vintage-style ring. Perhaps with a deep red ruby, mirroring a love that’s both old-fashioned and full of fire.

Laszlo and Nadja, What We Do In the Shadows: Bloodlust and Belly Laughs

For those who value humour in their forever partner, Laszlo and Nadja are the ultimate undead power couple. An engagement ring inspired by these two would be anything but conventional. Perhaps a ring shaped like a ‘baaaat’ or coffin, or a playful mix of gemstones that represent a chaotic yet charming dynamic. They’d likely opt for a ring with black diamonds, crimson rubies, or maybe a mood-style cobochon ring that’s perfect for tracking Nadja’s many colourful moods.

Undead Disco Wedding: Imagine a fog-filled ballroom, gothic candelabras and a live band playing your favourite vampire hits. And the entertainment? How about a faux bat release or a midnight ‘blood tasting’ to get the party started?

Buffy and Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Brooding Beauty and a Ruby Claddagh Ring

A cult classic, the romance between Buffy Summers and Angel is the epitome of tragic, star-crossed love. A slayer and a vampire, bound together by a love that transcends their very natures.

When it comes to rings, Angel famously gifted Buffy a Claddagh ring, a traditional Irish symbol of love, loyalty and friendship. Perfect for a couple that’s faced demons, both literal and metaphorical. Imagine a bespoke Claddagh-style ring with a heart shape blood-red ruby centre – a blend of traditional and contemporary, just like their story.

Once More With Feeling: For fans of the iconic ’90s show who forego the bad-boy allure of Spike in favour of Angel’s golden-retriever-with-fangs energy, a Buffyverse wedding would be all about undying romance.

We picture a nighttime ceremony under a canopy of dimmed lights, a witchy bridal party and vows that speak of a love that survives going to hell and back. What? It happens.

Louis and Lestat, Interview With the Vampire: Queer Charisma and Baroque Beauty

The beguiling, haunting love story between Louis and Lestat is one for the ages. A perfect engagement ring for this duo would feature a Baroque design, with maroon rubies or night-sky sapphires, reflecting the opulence and darkness of their world.

The Wedding Feast: A decadent affair, dripping with luxury, candelabras, velvet drapes and dramatic red roses would be the perfect setting for a proposal or wedding. The perfect place for two souls bound in blood and love. Whether you’re a fan of Anne Rice’s original novel, watched the seminal 1994 film over and over, or you’re enjoying the fresh retelling in the recent TV version, the relationship between these two is intoxicating and inspiring.

For the Real-Life Spooky Couple

Whether you’re a True Blood aficionado or have a soft spot for the wit of What We Do In the Shadows, there’s a vampire couple that’ll inspire your own love story. And the best part? You don’t need an iron-heavy diet to bring a bit of their era-spanning romance into your life. Consider bespoke replicas of these iconic rings, or let them inspire something uniquely yours. From engagement rings that tell a story to wedding ideas that embrace the macabre, there’s something for every deep, dark gothic heart.

After all, when it comes to love, like a vampire, it should last forever.
