I guess my qutesion are:

1. Did i overpay?
2. Will she be happy with a stone of this quality (we are not rich by any means.)

Looking for comments good or bad, or pros and cons of this diamond.
 
1. You did not overpay

2.color and clarity she wil be happy but cut wise(sparkle) I think you could have done better. the HCA score of the bluenile diamond is a 3.6 so you know there is light leakage. You want the HCA to be a 2 or under....you could get something like this or this or this ......those are all better cuts than the bluenile diamond.

Also, bluenile does not allow upgrades, if you are concerned about that.
