Help first time diamond buyer!

Hello diamond lovers!

So my fiance and I are looking for the perfect engagement stone. I've found 2, but I need advice:

One is a 1.8 ACA HnA from Whiteflash - I, SI1, it's eye clean. (I really didn't want to go below a H color)

Second is a 1.68 HnA from GOG - H, VS2.

Both are great on holloway cut advisor.

Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I have bought from both vendors and expect that both stones are great! I think you will have to decide whether you want a larger size with lower color and clarity or a slightly smaller stone with higher color and clarity. That is totally up to personal preference and something you will have to decide.
