Wedding Ring Vs. Engagement Ring

[HavocXphere]

Depends on culture too.

e.g. Ze Germans tend to go with a simple gold band for engage and then a proper ring for wedding. The first is more a declaration of intent so to speak...

No matter how you spin it its going to be expensive though

I'm probably going to have a hard time when I have to get married because I straight up refuse to pay ludicrous amounts of money on a rock, or the actual wedding itself (heaven have mercy on the soul that decides to take me as a significant other)... Symbolic things don't need to cost an arm and a leg IMO.

Depends on the girl...if she insists on diamonds then you're screwed. Do not pass go. Do not collect 20k. And pay 20k to the de beers cartel.

If she is willing to consider other stones then you should easily be OK.

>>or the actual wedding itself

Same...closest relatives aside they can all get lost for all I care. Might change my tune though...aka...might not have a choice
