Don't get too hung up on other people's advice, focus more on the design, and don't get in a carat race.
My wife and I barely wear our wedding bands as is, especially now with COVID - we wash our hands/sanitize them so often when going out we feel bad scratching the wedding bands, and the engagement ring which was an antique with a 0.75 carat stone stays in the jewelry box at night.

2 things funny about this.
It's all about the thought.. UNTIL the gf / fiancee talks to their friends and ask OH WOW, let me seee.. HOW BIG IS IT..... then you'll be fooked when one of the bitch ass friend says.. woah.. so small is it even 1 carat...
blah blah blah all you want, there is always that ONE bff...
90% of the girls barely wears the bands; that's a moot point. We all have heard the sign. other saying they will wear the 6 inch heels all day and everyday and 1 yr down the road.. they never wear them everrrr....
Yet the "I told you so" on any future purchase never gets thru her head.... (We boys are the same... the cars we hoard and say we will use as upgrade....still sits....)
Still with ur budget and get within it (buying online).
