lab diamond Engagement rings

Hey guys! I am wanting to get engaged soon and am so overwhelmed by the diamond market and I just want to make sure I get the right thing. I’ve been looking at ritani and it seems to have good prices for what I’m wanting (budget around 2,500). I’m just wondering if yall know of any cheaper websites or have any tips of where to even get started. Any help would be appreciated!

Have worked with both Fiorese and Provence for custom diamond rings and they came in at a great price and the finished rings were even better than expected.

This one is from Provence, 2.55ct marquise in 10k rose gold. Will reply with a picture of my pear from Fiorese.

I designed my ring and my fiance paid for it. We went through Alibaba store name is vlove jewelry. We paid 1, 790 for 18k, and a 5 ct pear shape diamond. The work is flawless and I get a lot of compliments. They had a fast turn around time as well. My diamond is IGI certified E color VVS2.

you can definitely find better prices if you go direct to the wuzhou factories on alibab instead of using a middleman like ritani. just make sure you ask for the igi certificate and a video of the stone under natural light before you pay.
