How much did your engagement ring cost?

My e-ring is a 1.25 carat stone and cost about 10% of his annual salary (I only know this because we got it insured, or I never would have asked/cared).

I never cared about the cost, size, shape, or color. He picked it out on his own, spent what he could afford, and married me - that's all I care about.

Not if it's asked without judgement and the information given without discomfort.

Miziz I love when you pop in.

By the way, isn't mine stunning?

@MizizAngi - I think yours is stunning!

And I love you, Emmy!

So beautiful

I love my 2 carrot stunner!

Miziz, I have the same one in purple! What a coincidence!

Lmao these C-Rings are hilarious!

I have no idea what my ring cost and don't have a picture on my computer here at work...but I'm loving looking at these pictures!

@m, I was really hoping you were serious about posting that thread...I have homemade strawberry cheesecake in my fridge, and am now going home to eat it. (:

WHAT?!?!?! We get Angi AND Mrs. King all in one thread?!?!? HOORAY!! We need tacky questions more often!

And why does everyone have nicer nails than me??

He gave me no say in the ring.. It's nothing that I would have bought but he did perfect!

I have no idea. I didn't even ask.

Approx. $5500.00 for my ering and wedding band and that was on sale, it retails for $8500.00. When I found out how much he spent I almost pooped my pants! He spent much more then I would have liked. Luckily that was the cheapest one he picked out. He had three in mind, the other two were both on sale as well but were $8k and $11k, but thankfully he brought both my parents with him to see the rings and my mom talked him out of the other two because she knew i would be upset if he spent that much. I absolutely love my ring though!

ETA photo and to point out my ring isn't tight on me, I was making a fist to hide my unpolished nails lol!

I wanted an opal so badly and FH definitely wasn't complaining because it only ended up costing him a little over $200. Never gonna turn down a chance to show off my ring!

ETA: ugh ignore whatever weird bendy thing my fingers are doing in that second picture

This is mine! It is 5 carats. It was around a 100 grand.

Jk.... we are poor. Look at my avatar haha. PS. I would not want this ring... how would you even function?

$4,500

This is my real ring. I have no idea how much it was really. The center stone was given to us. I think the setting and everything was around 2000 if I remember correctly. I also have no idea how big it is lol but I love it!

At the time we got engaged/FH was looking, I had no clue his budget. I'm VERY greatful for my ring & adore it but it makes me nervous wearing it sometimes- it appraised for over 40k. I totally get his reasons for a smaller wedding budget (bcs it's 1 day, the ring is forever) but it still stresses me- ha. Just like OP said - if TMI, no need to post FH got a good deal on my ring as it appraised for a lot more than he spent. He had certain things that were important to him & made sure he got them. He knew the style I liked (single round solitaire) but my band was a surprise- I'm so glad he kept it simple with a plain band. I don't think this post is judgmental at all!!! There are TONS of stunning rings here! I would have been happy with a fruit loop if that's what he had proposed with
