My guess is that mined diamonds will undergo a marketing campaign to say something like nothing is as unique and special as a hand selected natural diamond, while synthetic will compete on price and perfection. Synthetic diamonds will eventually drive the price of mined ones down, and the wedding industry will find something else that is the must have symbol of marriage.
If diamonds are forever, and since the human population cannot grow indefinitely, at some point everyone will have their diamond jewelry, and there would be little need to sell more.
