    Great video. For me, I like the 1-1.5 carat range for my ring size (4.75) and my life and work. But, varying sizes are beautiful, and there are so many gorgeous settings to choose from. When I got engaged, there was very little internet research to consider, and I hit the bricks lol! I went to various, reputable diamond exchanges in NJ, NY, Philly, and I learned. Looking back, I did well. 🙂 I chose a colorless diamond, high SI1 clarity, and excellent lxw ratio. I'd still choose a Radiant cut today.
    That D color, VVS2, 1.5 brilliant round in the tapered cathedral is beautiful, Bonnie!

    Carat, Color, and Clarity are all secondary to Cut. The Cut of a diamond is the single most important factor in determining how a diamond will perform and has the most influence over price. Also, there is no such thing as GIA-Certified Diamonds. The Gemological Institute of America only issues Lab Reports, not "certificates". Any broker or jeweler can have any jewel evaluated by GIA.

    Great video😍 I say go the biggest you can afford. I’m speaking from experience. Some sizes may seem big on first impressions and on look big other people’s hands but with wear and admiring your ring you get accustomed to the size over time and perhaps the diamond may even “shrink” a little. Yes “Diamond shrinkage syndrome” Is a real thing! Google it.â˜ș I personally started with a .90 carat round now I’m currently wearing a 4.5 carat size which I like but I would easily go a 5 carat now if I could 😊

    I think everything above 1.5ct. or maybe 2ct. on certain hands, takes away from the class. Even with lab diamonds being as cheap as they are and let you easily get a 2ct.+, it's just the vibe it get from woman that want to go that big. Screams insecure and trashy imho. It's uncomfortable big and get's in the way a lot when doing just ordinairy things.
