As you are deciding on your carat size, remember that the heavier diamonds are not necessarily better than smaller, less weighty diamonds. A smaller diamond with excellent cut, clarity and color will be far more impressive and arresting to the eye than a diamond with a large carat weight that has a poor cut, clarity and/or color. To illustrate the size factor further, think of what you would find more impressive in a car: a large, clunky Oldsmobile, or a small, sleek, Corvette? The same goes for diamonds. There are times when bigger is better, but unless you can afford to have all of the factors going up in relationship with the diamond's carat weight, you are better off choosing the cut, clarity and color of the diamond that you want, and then choosing the carat weight that you can afford.
