Finally found the right engagement ring!

[WadeWilson]

I'll have to be back when she says I do, and have a picture of her wearing it!!! Thanks for the time everyone puts in on these forums.

Glad I finally found the right diamond on Blue Nile after dealing with local jewelers showing me subpar diamonds for too much money.

1.00 carat, GIA graded I color, VS2 clarity, Very Good cut grade. (Per Facetware may have been an excellent cut if the girdle was 4% instead.)
(I can't see any noticeable inclusions at all, even with a 10x loupe, I'm very happy about that.)

Excellent polish and symmetry, none culet, strong blue fluorescence.
Medium - slightly thick faceted (4.5%), 57% table, 62.7% depth.
2.0 on the Holloway Cut Advisor.
Center diamond dimensions are 6.32 - 6.37 x 3.98 mm.

What would be a good wedding ring to pair with this engagement ring? I know she prefers simple bands that don't detract from the engagement ring, so I was thinking about a plain 3mm platinum band, would that match up well with this? The engagement ring is also 3mm and platinum.

Here's some indoor and outdoor photos.

Its beautiful! I would do either a plain band or one with alternating rounds and baguettes, maybe something like this:

Or maybe a baguette eternity band like the bottom ring in this post?

I like Stargurl's 1st choice, so this is along the same theme:

IDJ and BGD both order from here, as it is a wholesale only website.

You did a great job! Wait and let her try on wedding bands with the e-ring. That is the only way to know what looks best!

Thanks! I know much more about diamonds now after researching for the past month, didn't realize there was so much to consider.

You know what, that makes perfect sense. Hard to tell otherwise.

Beautiful ring. I would wait till she has the ring and go try different bands with it.
