The old rule of spending two months salary on an engagement ring is outdated. In 2026, couples are making smarter financial decisions — especially with lab-grown diamonds offering identical quality at 30-40% lower prices.
Smart Budgeting
Consider what you can comfortably afford without going into debt. Lab-grown diamonds from Diavlia start from $1,000 for beautiful solitaire designs.
Where Your Money Goes
- The Diamond — 50-70% of the total cost
- The Setting — 15-30% (metal type matters)
- Certification — Included at Diavlia
With lab-grown, a $2,000 investment gets you a ring that would cost $3,500+ with a mined diamond. See the full comparison.
