    We bought ours together. Our money is already all combined, so we both paid for them

    We picked them out together and split 50/50.

    It's whatever works for the couple and how they've agreed to handle finances.

    I bought FH's, he bought mine.

    We split both our wedding bands and my e ring since our finances had already been combined for several years.

    I don't think it really matters. We budgeted for these as part of our wedding budget so we are both paying for them.

    I picked out mine and we have a joint account that we're using to pay for wedding stuff

    We are purchasing ours with our joint wedding account that will be converted to our household account after the wedding. But I seriously doubt that our two wedding rings combined will cost more than $300, so it is easily absorbed there.

    We'll probably buy our own. Mine will be a bit more than his and it's not fair for him to spend more and me spend next to nothing if we swapped

    Our money is already all together so we will be buying them together.

    I officially put it on my charge card and paid the bill for them, but we split our money for whatever we need - so it doesn't really matter who pays the bills. We picked them out together, but I picked out mine and he picked out his really.

    Doesn't matter. We're all adults. I bought both our bands.

    We have a joint account and the money is coming from there. However, FH thinks he should be the one responsible for the purchase, since he got the engagement ring. In the end, it won't matter where the money comes from though once we're married.
