💍 Planning a proposal or wedding over a long weekend? Here’s what you need to know!
I got married on a public holiday, so trust me—there are a few things you’ll want to plan for:
✨ Crowds & traffic – Popular spots will be busy, so leave early and have a backup plan.
✨ Road closures & events – Check if festivals or parades might affect your location.
✨ Bookings fill up fast – Lock in your dinner or weekend getaway ASAP!
A little planning goes a long way to keep your proposal stress-free and magical. ✨

In this episode of the Rachel Beth Jewellery Podcast, host Rachel Lake explores the intriguing world of diamonds, focusing on the key differences and similarities between lab-grown and natural diamonds. Rachel explains how both types of diamonds share identical visual, physical, and chemical properties, making them virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye. She also discusses how the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and International Gemological Institute (IGI) use the same grading standards—the 4Cs (Cut, Color, Clarity, Carat)—for both lab-grown and natural diamonds.
Rachel highlights the primary factors influencing the choice between these diamonds, such as budget considerations and personal preference, noting that lab-grown diamonds are typically 30-50% less expensive. She concludes by emphasizing that the decision ultimately comes down to the emotional connection and story each diamond represents for the individual.
Whether you’re considering a diamond purchase or simply want to learn more about these dazzling gems, this episode provides valuable insights into the world of lab-grown and natural diamonds.
