Here few more options I was told by a jeweler are great. I can get them for 2800 and 3000.

Any thought on these?
So these would be from an outside jeweler rather than WF? Given your tight timeline, I would strongly suggest sticking with a trusted vendor who can get you everything (e-ring, wedding band, etc).
Sledge , is it worth paying extra for .2mm ?
If not then .734 VS2 ACA would be at top of my list.
Sledge , May I ask what do you do for living ???
So much valuable information !
You are amazing . I am so greatfull.
No way I would be able to learn this on my own in such a short time frame.
So ... I guess you still recommend sticking with WF unless my dealer can match the program ?!? And these 2 stones not worth it ?
Not that it will change my mind in any way if you say yes but Do you have any affiliation with WF?

here is another stone that just popped out since I am increasing my budget :
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...color-vs1-clarity-true-hearts-cut-sku-3824053
they can ship to me and my local guy will provide a setting and bands
it rated as 1.4 on HCA
Guys ok I was about to pull a trigger on the .734 G VS2 ACA and got an email offering me $3574
This
AGA 1192483256 for 3200
Didn’t see the stone though... he said this is the best he can get his hands on .... this is from ID J
What do you think, should I look into it or just stick with WF
Do you mean this GIA diamond:

This is absolutely mind blowing.... you guys are incredible. And so fast. I feel like I am running out of words to thank you all for such an amazing help.
You need to start charging for this ...
Honestly I have no Idea what BGD is and really need to figure out if I am going with WF tonight (they already sent me wire instructions). So I feel like WF is a safe bet here and I am a bit concerned that the stone was branded/rebranded. Even though it is 0.8 on HCA... and WF dimond 1.3
Am I going to regret that $400 difference and 0.066 in ct weight?
I also see 0.8 stone was branded as SI 1 vs WF VS2...
I feel like I need someone to tell me what to do .... Sory Guys I am juggling so many thing now and this has been overwhelming.....
I like WF sleek line legato setting but it is 1200. When I told them that I can see similar settings from ID for like 300-400 . Their reply was: WF rings are made specifically for the stone and not mass produced .
That’s the reason for price .
Is there any issues taking that dimond to ID in hopes to get similar looking setting for 3 times less in price?
I am thinking about what WF said and wondering if mass produced rings distort visual proportions of the dimond to setting, where custom made insures perfect balance so the stone doesn’t look small.

Were these similar settings from ID for 300-400 in platinum or gold? The WF sleek line legato is 1200 in platinum but 800 in 18K WG.
GIA graded the stone as a VS2, but AGS graded it as a SI1.
