Don't do it. I've been there done that. Threw thousands of dollars in the trash.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I don't think it hurts to buy an engagement ring. But we need to get away from the huge expensive diamond part. In our culture today though, how do you do this? Let's move past the problem, and start finding the solution.

The value of diamonds is set by the near complete control of every fact of extraction to sale by one company.
Outside of the price they charge, of what value is a diamond?

Synthetic diamonds are interesting. They are valued at what they can get someone to pay. So the smallest stones are about a grand, but a giant one is like two grand.
At one point, fake diamonds were indistinguishable from real ones, after they figured out to include a few flacks of carbon so that it was not too perfect. Then DeBeers instituted a microscopic coding program for all diamonds. Every stone now has the equivalent of a serial number. That's the only way to tell a real one from a fake.
