Hi all! I'm new here but have been lurking for some time to get a few ideas for an upcoming purchase for a planned proposal in January 2017 on a trip to the Virgin Islands. I would like to purchase a loose diamond in the 1.75-2.0 carat size from a diamond wholesaler and have the diamond set by another....I believe there is someone highly regarded on this site. I have been looking at the Whiteflash website and the AGS certified diamonds. Am I paying too much of a premium in comparison to GIA certified diamond? I would like to stick with an eye-clean S1-VS2 and a G or H color as most recommend here. Thanks for any thoughts and recommendations on my search. I really appreciate the assistance!

No offense. But I don't really want your favorite.

I want to see the rings she likes. She's wearing it. Not you.

So please post at least 4-5 of the rings she's pinned. THanks!
