    Shane Co is a good store. That's where I got my engagement ring. They will explain to you the 4 Cs, which most stores do now. They will do exchanges for free for up to 60 days and life time for repairs and maintenance.
    But what I want to say is make sure your gf likes the style and if you can't decide, make sure that place will accept exchanges. Otherwise, you can always fall back to the classic, which is a simple ring with a huge rock ;), but make sure it is GIA certified. Another thing you can consider when buying the diamond is style of the cut, some stores have the style called "hearts and arrows" Where you look from top view you get 8 symmetrical hearts and from the bottom you get 8 arrows, pretty sick designing, but need scope to see. :)

    hahahah yea true! Look for the best on the day! lols
     
  13. don't go overboard with the photos package ... you truly think that its a YOMO/YOLO thing. Maybe its a FOMO thing but you seriously won't be looking at your wedding photos aas often as you think/want/hope to.

    Keep us posted if you can (Y)

    Just FYI, it's not like I'm trying to spend more... what I mean to say is, it is just THAT MUCH more expensive to plan and host a wedding compared to AU. I wish I had the same type of packaging and pricing here...

    Win! rating cos you're from Australia! Also congrats!

    One of my friend just got married few weeks ago, he was stressing out with the venue, since 3 weeks prior the venue he picked had some adjustment and ruining the whole atmosphere
