US guides
The diamond and the US wedding date are two clocks. The stone has to be delivered, inspected, and then set by a jeweler who has his own queue.
After the diamond reaches a US address, a local jeweler still needs the measurements from the report to make or size the head. A proposal can happen before the wedding; the setting often cannot happen the week of the ceremony.
Request the diamond and review the certificate while the date is still comfortable. A grade-range promise is how US couples lose a week.
Carat Mate’s job is the certified center. Your US jeweler’s job is the band. Splitting those steps is what makes the schedule predictable.
