Proposing to the love of my life in a week, but I’m freaking out about the stone colors!

Took me about 8 months to design the ring and I think the band itself is beautiful, but I’m feeling heavily insecure about the color differences in center vs. side stones. I know whatever it is, my partner will love it. I’m just wondering if I’m going insane or if y’all see the difference in color too.

I picked them all to be within the same color grade but the vendor mentioned that was the warmest they could order for the side stones as apparently they’re not sold in specific color grades when they’re that small, only color range.

What do you think? Too noticeable?

Help Identifying

Hello! My partner and I are looking to design my ring. I saw this ring a while ago and I like it a lot, but I’m really not sure how to describe it? What you would you call this setting? I believe the stone is emerald cut - I would like a brown stone instead, and would rather it not be terribly expensive. Outside of fancy brown diamonds, which stones could I use that are brown in color and quite affordable.

Honeymoon Itinerary for May 2027

Hey y'all, I'm planning a honeymoon trip to Ireland next year as my partner and I have always wanted to go. We'll only be spending 9 days excluding plane travel days and will be renting a car. Since we want to see a lot of Ireland but also want to have a relaxing time, I want to make sure I've set a good plan :)

We'll probably be there early to mid May, we enjoy easy hikes, walks by the water/cliffs, cozy eateries, bookstores, history and live music at pubs.

I'm a bit torn between NW (mostly because of Giants Causeway) and SW coasts, but I think I'm leaning SW.

On the day we arrive in Dublin, I think we'll take the train to Galway and spend the night.

2nd day would be picking up the car and driving to Connemara where we would spend the following 2 nights.

On the morning of the 4th day we would pack up and take the long trip to Dingle with a few stops along the way. We would spend the next 3 nights at Dingle.

On the 7th day we'd drive down to Kenmare.

But here's my main question, should we remain in Kenmare to take day trips around or should we only spend the night, drive down to Kinsale to spend one night as well before driving back to Galway to take the train back to Dublin the day before traveling out of the country? Will I miserably regret not seeing Kinsale/Cork?

Also, please forgive me if the math ain't add up here, algebra was my strongsuite in highschool but it's been a while. Thank you kindly!
