Just got married today and the ring was 200-300 USD but that was mainly the stone which is a big pretty opal

$100

Moissinite

Rings costing more is a scam

About $1200 back in 2010. Got a nice enough ring she'd feel proud to show it to people, but didn't pay any more money than I'd saved up since I decided to propose.

To keep costs down I got a 'perfect' diamond with an occlusion you couldn't see without a jewelers loop, and had sapphires on the ring to add interest without increasing the size of the diamond.

I'm happy with the decision still 15 years later.

The life of my great grandmother technically, though I'm sure she would have given it to me anyway.

Not much at all

Money doesn't matter to us

We went back and forth with ideas about rings, but we kept coming back to this one

I bought this box separately, so that we can keep the wedding band nicely for the when we tie the knot

I've had the rings for a while now, and she doesn't know! I know she'll love it, it's the ring she liked the most out of all the ones we looked at

In a few weeks I'm going to give it to her

We got engaged months and months ago, but we're stuck doing the long-distance thing and our time together is precious

She's is going to lose her mind, and I can't wait!

$700 for moissanite ring and wedding band:

I really can't recall but not a lot at all. To avoid the whole blood-diamond thing we bought a vintage one from a charity, where it had been donated.

I got a Stirling silver claddagh ring for my wife's engagement ring, i think it is $20 something. Our wedding rings were Stirling silver bands, $35 each and we had then engraved, which i think was $15 each.

$2,158.57. It's a 1.06 carat ice blue sapphire

About $4000 for a 1.5ct lab grown diamond+band.

About 9k. Its my wedding ring and engagement ring. I only have one ring. My husband and I chose it out together, lab grown, custom and the ring I anticipate to wear for my whole life. We are fortunate enough to afford it.

Less than $1000. Moissanite > Diamond

We went down to a pawn shop and I think we spent about $350 for both rings. They're both beautiful rings with real diamonds and a couple other stones

i bought an engagement ring for around 10000 DKK / 1550 USD. Which I thought was a lot, but I really liked the ring! For myself I bought a ring for 1000 DKK

I think I spent 400 for engagement ring and wedding bands together. Over time, it became clear that none of the rings matched, and only one of the three is quality material.

I wish I had spent more on the engagement ring to get a setting that doesn't stick out so much, it's too stabby and scratchy. I'd also want to track down a lab grown diamond if I had it to do over again.

$6,500 NZD, for a custom made ring, with blue lab grown diamond and two small pear shaped lab grown clear diamonds. About 1.5 months salary.

About 60€ for the wedding bands. Bought them on Etsy, made of epoxied wood with some blue in it, handmade in Poland. I insisted in not buying expensive since my husband is prone to misplace things. I was right. Not even a year in, he lost his. I now keep mine in a box. We talked about replacing his, but it is not really important for us. And we kept removing them for bouldering, cooking and other activities. Our bond does not rely on a ring.

$5000 CAD I think. My band is$300. But I'm wearing $10 bigger ring from Amazon. Fingers get chubby so the expensive rings are in a box for years now

I had no idea what to spend, but everyone told me three months salary. So that's what I paid. Was it too much, too little? I don't know, but I was dumbly in love. Still am, and I don't think about how much I spent now.

My grandmother gave me hers, so free. But I ended up getting a wedding band for somewhere in the neighborhood of $1500, made custom to match the engagement ring which was alternating sapphires and diamonds. Lab grown small diamonds, but I think it was 4 of them with 3 sapphires, plus a 18k gold band.

I designed my wife's wedding ring. I drew it up the evening we decided to get married. I still have the drawing. I then found a small independent custom shop and had it made. The diamond is actually small but looks massive because of the design.

Cost me $1,200 for it. Most of it was in the hours of labor to make it back in '00.

Like 30 USD for the ring, 300 for the wedding fee. We went out for a nice lunch so another 200 for 8 guests.

A few bottles of cheap champagne too.

Zero. We didn't get engagement rings, not later wedding bands. The first few years of our marriage we used to get asked about the wedding bands a lot, but people eventually got used to us not having any. I think it's probably been about 15 years since we last got asked about them.

I spent too much on real diamond before I knew any better. So I was complicit in blood money, and now it's worth 2 percent of what I spent.

No engagement rings, by our values those are kinda corny. Wedding rings we got from a jewelry factory that supplies much of the country, which happens to be local to where we lived at the time. Got them at factory price. Not quite $12, but not much higher. :)

$1000 for my 1ct rose gold white sapphire ring, about $200 for hubby's ring from Etsy. Funny thing is just about every year after that, we've bought cool Etsy rings and enjoy them more than our initial ones. Etsy rings for the win 😊
