When you are a fan of a movie or TV show, a character getting engaged is almost like a close friend getting engaged. You’re excited for him or her and you want to hear about all the details. Luckily, fan sites have sprung up about all our favorite shows, where fans can discuss everything from the character’s outfits to their favorite lines of dialogue. But one question keeps popping up over and over—what was that engagement ring that flashed on that character’s finger in the proposal scene? Either to satisfy that burning curiosity, or because you are a die-hard fan and want a matching engagement ring, check out this gallery of the top ten fictional affordable diamond engagement rings, chosen from all your favorite movies and TV shows!

1. Sex and the City has given us a whole generation of cultural references, as well as four wardrobes that will never be matched by any onscreen (or offscreen) group of friends. To the most devoted fans, the moment that Aidan finally proposes to Carrie, everyone’s favorite writer, in Season Four, is a treasured milestone. The ring he used to pop the question, an emerald cut solitaire in a platinum setting, is perfect for the fashion icon’s taste—unique enough to be her own, and simple enough to not compete with her wild taste in clothing and jewelry. If you consider yourself a “Carrie,” consider this ultra-modern but elegant look.

2 A show about the lives of four highly eligible women living it up in New York City can’t have just one proposal. The hopeless romantics among us have always had a soft spot for Charlotte, so when her knight in shining armor, Harry, finally sweeps her off her feet, everyone expected an engagement ring fit for a princess.

And in fact, the ring that Harry whips out is based on no less than the famous 30-carat engagement ring worn by Elizabeth Taylor. Charlotte’s version, like yours can be, was a much more modest, but not less glamorous, Asscher-cut ston set with baguette accent stones. It is Old Hollywood glamour at its finest.

3. Whether you love it or hate it, whether you vote for Team Edward or Team Jacob, chances are you have not escaped the massive phenomenon known as Twilight. In this romantic tale, a girl meets a 100-year old vampire—and they fall in love. Eventually, he proposes, with one of the most unique engagement rings seen on film. An intricate, oval-shaped design set with small stones, the ring had no center stone, which is traditional for affordable diamond engagement rings.

Whether or not you found your Edward (or Jacob) you’ll love this rendition of that unique design. It’s part of the Dreams of Africa series, which means that every purchase helps alleviate suffering in Africa caused by illegal diamond trade. It’s also a gorgeous ring, a round design set with an intricate pattern of small diamonds, available in white or yellow gold.

4. But even ordinary humans can have some engagement ring fun. In everyone’s favorite medical drama, Grey’s Anatomy, the real drama is what is going on between the doctors! Dr. Christina Yang’s engagement ring is only one memorable example among many on that show. Even though her marriage never ended up happening due to off-screen drama, her cushion-cut diamond in its split-shank pavé setting deserves to be an instant classic.

5. Speaking of marriages that never happened, who can forget the epic scene of missed communication in the season three finale of Gossip Girl? Chuck arrived at the Empire State Building to propose to Blair, only for Blair to show up moments after he had given up and left. Later in Prague, he is shot by thugs after refusing to hand over the engagement ring he meant to give to Blair—a stunning 8 carat cushion cut diamond in a tapered baguette and platinum setting. The timeless elegance and refined opulence of the rig make it the perfect choice for Blair Waldorf—and for any chic urban princess.

6. As one of the most stylish women on one of the most stylish shows on TV today, Joan Holloway of Mad Men has a special place in our fashion hearts. When her handsome doctor boyfriend finally proposed, we, like the secretaries at Sterling Cooper, clamored for a closer look of the engagement ring sparkling on her left hand. True to the period, Joan’s engagement ring is a modest-sized bezel-set diamond in a vintage-style yellow gold setting. It is a timeless classic that could work as well now as it did in the 1960’s.

7. At the end of season four of Mad Men, viewers were shocked when dapper ad-man Don Draper pulled out an engagement ring and proposed to Megan, his secretary who he had just taken with him and his children as a nanny on a trip to Disney World. The ring was simple—a round diamond solitaire Don inherited from a close friend—but the subtlety and tradition are exactly what Don would have chosen himself.

8. It isn’t an engagement ring, but the powerful gold ring at the center of the Lord of the Rings trilogy deserves a mention on this list. Devoted fans, men or women, will appreciate the classic look and nostalgia of a rounded yellow gold band that reminds them of their favorite book and movie trilogy. You can even have the ring inscribed with a special message for a romantic touch—in Elvish if you are really a die-hard fan!

9. “The One with the Proposal” was the season six finale of everyone’s favorite sitcom, Friends. When Chandler got on one knee and proposed to Monica, he did it with an engagement ring that was lot like Monica herself—a little traditional, a little quirky, and a whole lot of personality. Monica’s engagement ring—a three stone setting with a princess cut center diamond and sapphire accents—has since become a bona fide engagement ring trend.

10. It may have taken them many seasons to get there, but coworkers Jim Halpert and Pam Beasly of The Office finally got engaged in season four. When Jim pulled over at a gas station in the pouring rain and took out an engagement ring, everyone was shocked. The ring itself was a perfect reflection of Pam and Jim—modest, cute, and perfectly practical. A simple stone in a white and yellow gold setting, it is a classic and timeless style.
