How much did your engagement ring cost?

People try to eat it all the time!

On the plus side...I always have a snack on hand!

hahahaha get it..on hand.

Here's a pic without and with my wedding band.

ETA: Sorry for the sideways pic!

LOVE!!!!!

When it comes to bands, I will def share price and info on where to get them.

1. Plain hammered white gold, $84

2&3 Diamond band with hand engraved milgrain beading added for vintage effect $650

Holy cow melissa- thats beautiful!

To answer the ?, my DH spen about $3500 for my ring and 1,000 for my band. Its not the price, it that he picked out something that was gorgeous and unique to me and thats all that matters. =)

If he had spent more or less, i wouldnt have minded one bit. Its the thought and the sentiment behind it!

Melissa, is yours a 2 carat? I really wanted 2 but didn't want him to spend 20k. When we looked at the hearts of fire stones or whatever they're called, the 1C's were starting at like 17k!!! I was like, yea babe, no. For that price range I would want the extra carat.

Melissa - OMG How do you even lift your hand off the ground with that sucker?! It's really is great. Not for me because I would be too terrified to wear it in fear of getting robbed. Lol. And I would hit it on everything. But, very nice, as I'm sure you know

My ering cost 1700. It was actually 1500 but I wanted to convert it to yellow gold instead of white gold cause I am allergic to white gold so that was 200 dollars to convert it to yellow gold. Sept we are going to check for the wedding ring to match my ering.

@Melissa Holy!! It's just as impressive as I was picturing. I would be afraid to wear it! So gorgeous.

@Laura - Yes it's a little over 2 carats

@Pancakes - lmao and thank you!

@C&S - Thank you

ETA for spelling

The reason I didn't share the cost of my ring is because people would take my answer as bragging. Looking back, the same can be said about the talk about wedding budgets and I don't see the difference. However, I will give the specs if people are curious. Here's a pic.

@Janeen - We won't think you're bragging

@Melissa what a beautiful set you have. Your H did a great job at picking out that ring!

@Janeen, your set is gorgeous!

2 Carrot ring

ETA: it's less funny now that Carrots has been edited to carats.

Lol emmy how the hell did you find that.

My husband spent close to what Melissa quoted (well...under, by a bit) My center stone is just larger than 1.5 cts, but it's colorless and "high quality" as he kept saying over and over again. Don't get me wrong; I love it. But I am uneasy with the amount spent.

The 2 carrot ring owner also suffers from the same finger plight as me. Good to know I'm not alone.

Ally- I LOVE both of your bands. They are gorgeous!

For real though...I have no idea what it cost. I think this pic was more to show off my manicure

I am not sure how much mine was but here is a pix of it :-)

I'm not sharing what mine cost, but I will share my ring! I'll will say that FH spent WAY too much on it but I love it anyway!

I don't know why my picture is sideways.
