I’m thinking about proposing to my girl, however we both think diamonds as a standard is stupid and overrated, we both prefer much more colorful and comparatively cheaper gemstones like rubies and sapphires, but I’m having trouble finding a good place for that, I’ve never done this before, any ideas?

      Lab grown diamonds are better than real diamonds and come in colors now. They’re still kinda expensive tho.

        We didn’t even go for diamonds for primary stones. My wife’s main stone is some blue tanzanite. Mine has some funky pattern to it
