However, their rings are normally of much lower quality and much higher prices than blue nile. I have seen the blue nile workmanship and quality and I think for something in the thousands, I want that quality with high color and quality! From what I can tell a 1 ct with pretty high marks is around 5k whereas a good 1 1/2ct starts at the high 7k range and goes up.

All great suggestions here, she is set on her solitare though so no multi diamonds for her and she is set on at least a 1ct diamond...shes half pinoy so from what I hear, they like their jewlery! haha I get ragged all day long that I can ride the easy life when I am married so I dont want her to ever think that so I wana show her I am investing alot into the marriage as well! Not just a gold digger (though she told me she would buy me a GTR in a few years)....

Feel free to throw more comments, I notice this topic is blowing up fast and I like reading what others think.
