Is the bowtie too overpowering?

Specs: 2.50ct VVS2 brilliant cut pear fancy vivid blue lab diamond

I already purchased the diamond (I know, wrong move) without having asked for a video. The gem360 video barely showed any bowtie. However when the actual gem video was sent to me, even the seller agreed that the bowtie was very obvious. They refunded me.

My partner is telling me that bowties add character and depth. I agree, but I think in this case it's too overpowering. What do you think? Thanks!

Advice-1.6 carat tweezer video

I’m brand new at this so I’ve been reading a lot from this sub and some others. I have learned a lot but feel like there’s so much more I do not know. I got a tweezer video as recommended which I really understand is important. I asked for two diamonds to get the videos and one had a lot of dark spots in it even though they had similar specs. This is the one I think looks best. Please let me know any critique or concern. IGI LG792637748. It won’t let me post a video and a pic.

Renaissance Jewel Lab Diamond Engagement Ring Problem

I just received the engagement ring I ordered from renaissancejewel.com and I’m disappointed in the build quality. The main diamond is clearly crooked in the setting.

Renaissance jewel offered to repair or remake the ring, but that will take another month to complete the process. I’m planning to propose in 11 days, so I’ll have to send it back after the proposal, which is not ideal. If she accepts my proposal, she’ll have to go without the ring for an entire month. She’ll want to tell her friends and family that’s she’s engaged, but won’t have a ring. Very disappointing, and Renaissance jewel offered no other solution or reimbursement.

I would like the ring to be perfect since my significant other will (hopefully) be wearing it for a long time to come. Am I being too picky? Or should I send it back?
