According to the latest study released by Martha Stewart Weddings, today's average bride is 27 years old and 99% of them expect to receive a diamondring to celebrate the engagement. 57% of brides are involved in selecting the ring.And although most peoplethink thata one carat diamondis the typicalcenter stone, in reality the typical bridereceives an engagement ring with a 3/4 carat or smaller center stone.
For the couple who desires a larger look but with limited funds, a halo engagement ring is sthe perfect option. The "halo" is a circle of micro-pave diamonds that surround the center stone, visually expanding the bling of a stone by as much as a 1/2 carat. (I have a lovely Ritani engagement ring with a 3/4 carat cushion cut center diamond, but the halo of micro-pave rounddiamonds that surround itlead people to believe it is a one carat.)

Celebrities who wear the halo style include Jennifer Garner, Mrs. Matt Damon and Nicolette Sheridan. A halo works with just about every type of center diamond including round, oval, cushion, radiant and princess. You may choose a ring that is pre-set with a center stone or find a halo setting first and then select the center diamond from loose diamonds presented at the store. Another option is to set an heirloom diamond from a beloved grandmother or aunt into a new halo style engagemenet ring.
When it comes time to select the engagement ring of your dreams, consider the halo diamond engagement ring.
