Center Carat Size

So ladies, If you dont mind me asking, How many Carats are your center stones?
My FH wants me to get a bigger stone before our weddding...so Im curious to know if going bigger would not be a good idea.

Mine is 2.36

i just looked at your ring in your album.. GIRLLLLL.. are you crazy?!?! your ring is beautiful! i would leave it as is and put the money towards something else.. but thats JHMO. everyone is different. im not going to share my Carat size bc i think these kinds of posts can go down the road to drama.. but you should feel very blessed with your ring!

Personally Carat size never matter to me

---

me neither, i just wanted one that would sparkle a lot lol

i know this was an innocent post with no intentions of getting ugly, but like danielle said, this is a post that will turn into arguments.

your ring is beautiful and why would fh want you to change it? isnt it the one that he gave you to begin with?

Mine is between 1 and 1 1/2 carats ( don't want to say the exact size )....it's a perfect diamond and like the others said quality was much more important to me than quantity

Why would you want a different e-ring?

yup.. mine too. FH could have gone to a larget carot but the clarity wouldn't have been as good.

i dont ever understand why someone would want a new or upgraded ering...Its the ring FH proposed with, why would you want to give that up? I also dont think carat size matters, imho the bigger the carat and the more the girl talks about it (carat size) i think she is stuck up and selfish....What does carat size matter...as long as the quality of the diamond i good and it sparkles then whats the point. Also, not everyone's ering has center stones...there are many different styles of rings out there, so someone may have a 1 carat ring of good quality diamond chips that looks amazing and someone may have a 3 carat center stone that isnt good quality...

i agree about the upgrading thing. I love my ring and it is what fh proposed to me with....if i upgraded my ring it wouldn't have the same sentiment....jmo.

IMO, and i know i'm gonna get yelled at for this... but down the road (like on a special anniversary or something) i wouldn't say no if FH wanted to upgrade the ring. Well, not the setting or anything cuz i love it but the center stone. I LOVE LOVE my ring but if he's going to offer why not lol.
It's not something i would ask for though but i'm not gonna look a gift horse in the mouth.

Maybe it's different for me though because i pretty much picked out my ring lol

Edited cuz i just looked at your ring. It is BEAUTIFUL!!! If you two do decide to upgrade the center stone just be careful that it still fits with the setting and doesn't overpower it.

I'm pretty sure every thread that asked this question in the history of LIW has turned into drama --

Common responses:

Yours may be bigger, but I'm sure it's poor quality

Yours is smaller which means your FH doesn't love you as much

Mine is small BUT it's a colorless and flawless -- i'd rather have that than a big yellow stone.

I hope history doesn't repeat itself. But I would keep the popcorn close by!
