this is the video that helped me choose a 1.5 carat diamond solitaire for my wife. God bless you guys!

Great size comparison. I personally don't like diamonds too big, just my preference. I like 7/8th ct to 1 ct the most, more than enough bling for me.

My engagement ring was 1.35 carat solitaire. For our one year anniversary and also to commemorate my Master’s graduation we are combining our funds to upgrade to a 2 - 2.5 carat… these videos are helping so much. I think with my size 6.5 finger I will stick to the lower end of 2 carat.

@@usfanlovesminho5085idiot, lab grown diamonds that are 3ct D are 8-10k. The diamond is also exactly the same as a natural diamond. It’s like paying an insane premium to use ice from the arctic instead of using your freezer. Lab grown diamonds are ethical, better value, and actually more perfect lol.
