As a quick review, halo settings have a center diamond surrounded by smaller accent diamonds. This "halo" creates the illusion of a bigger center diamond and adds sparkle, shine, and beauty without necessarily adding a lot more dollars since smaller diamonds are generally less expensive than a single big diamond!  Double and triple halos add even more size and bling! This setting has been extremely popular for a while now and shows no sign of slowing down.

A vintage ring or vintage-style ring may be a good option for a bigger engagement ring as these rings tend to have more intricate and elaborate settings which allow for the use of more smaller diamonds, generally speaking.
