Everyone knows the saying, “diamonds are a girl’s best friend.”<\/strong> But if natural diamonds are a girl’s best friend, then lab-gown, sustainable, conflict-free diamonds are a girl’s closest sisters. Lab-grown diamonds are an ethical, affordable alternative to traditional diamonds. Scientists are able to recreate earth’s natural processes in a lab, thus creating chemically and optically identical diamonds that shine just as bright and sparkle just as much. Don’t just take our word for it, plenty of celebrity brides are crazy for sustainable jewelry, too! Here are some of our favorite celeb brides that wore lab-grown, ethical jewelry for their big day and the pieces they love for everyday wear. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Though her original engagement ring from 2015 was a traditional, mined diamond ring, she has since announced her intention to redesign the ring using lab cultivated diamonds. She said that since there has been more inclusion of lab-grown diamonds on the market, she feels she can now make the jump to sustainable jewelry. In fact, she even launched a sustainable jewelry brand of her own. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n
