- It's a tough place to be... There are rule of thumbs of course, so many dollars out of your yearly salary. But I'll view it like this.
In bill and ted's bogus journey, they proposed to the princesses with rings out of the 25 cent toy machineThey were delighted! They did not know of modern concepts to be fair being in the movie from old england but it's not the value of what the ring is but what it stands for.
And I think thats where it's important to look. We don't need to place a down payment on a ring to pledge our life to each other. I view it this way. I'd rather use it to go towards the wedding costs or to furniture in our home. Personally, rings custom made from metal could be even more awesome then anything requiring a stone.Save the money for something worth investing in.
Now I'm not saying that your partner is not important but there are much better ways to show your importance to each other.
I've personally seen people struggle with marriage and wedding costs and that alone wrecks marriages.
Why give yourself a heavy burden of debt for a wedding? See if you can have your home church host it at a low cost and have a fun and romantic evening but it's one where you won't be burdened by financial troubles once the wedding is over.
I think it's less about what I'm willing to spend and more about how to achieve the same feeling in a way that gives us more opportunities to do other things.
My proposal is to use the money that would have been spend on the diamond parts and use those to do something special for the both of us. Use that for a special furniture shopping trip or a home remodel that adds to the house and our lives.
But at the end of the day, it's a discussion to have not something to be assume or to force.
