Valentine's 2027 Ring Order-By Dates (Made to Order)

Last updated: 29 October 2026 by the Octa Pearl Team

Short answer: to have a made-to-order engagement ring in your hands by Friday 12 February 2027, place your order by Wednesday 13 January 2027. Valentine's Day 2027 falls on a Sunday (14 February), so we aim for the Friday before. Every ring is signed for on delivery, and someone needs to be home to take it.

The dates, step by step

Step Time we plan for Date
You place your order Day 0 Wed 13 Jan 2027
We make your ring Up to 14 business days Ships by Wed 3 Feb 2027
Insured delivery Up to 7 business days Arrives by Fri 12 Feb 2027

Business days do not include Saturdays, Sundays or US federal holidays. Martin Luther King Jr. Day (Monday 18 January) falls inside the making window, and we have counted around it. The dates use the longest time in each range, so there is a small cushion built in.

Our timing and policies, as written on our site

  • Made-to-order rings: 10 to 14 business days to make, then 5 to 7 business days in transit. About 3 weeks in total.
  • Free, fully insured shipping in the US. An adult signature is required on delivery.
  • Changes or cancellation: within 24 hours of placing the order.
  • Returns and exchanges: 30 days from delivery, on unworn rings with the original box and IGI report. See the full return policy.
  • Fully custom designs made from your own CAD sketch need extra time, and we agree the schedule with you first.

What if it is already past 13 January?

Contact us before you order and tell us your date. A faster courier option is available at checkout once the ring is made, which can shorten the delivery step. Our dates above do not assume faster shipping, so we will tell you honestly whether your date is still possible.

Our advice: do not order on the last day. A delay in delivery, or a missed signature, can cost a day, and you want time to check the ring and, if needed, adjust the size.

Before you order: a short checklist

  1. Know the ring size. If you are not sure, read our guide on how to measure ring size at home. Free resizing is included, but a correct size on day one saves time.
  2. Pick the style early. Browse engagement rings, toi et moi rings or a ring set, and choose the metal: 10K, 14K or 18K gold, or platinum.
  3. Plan the delivery. The package needs an adult signature. Choose an address where someone will be home, or where you can receive it without her seeing.
  4. Keep the IGI report. Each centre stone comes with an IGI report. It stays with the ring box.
