I just popped onto the wedding forum I used to post on, and someone has just posted an 'I'm engaged' thread, with a link to a picture of their engagement ring... their £4,275 engagement ring!! No offence meant at all to anyone who spent/spends that much on theirs but.... blimey!!
My first thought was "what a waste of money!" I just couldn't imagine spending that much money on a piece of jewellery, even one I'll wear forever. There are so much more important things you could spend on.... buying a house, saving for your children, even giving to charity. I can't believe someone has spent a lot more than our entire wedding (including rings!) cost on one ring. I'm stunned.
My second thought was... "we could get our kitchen and bathroom done for that amount of money!"... which is hopefully something that will actually happen in the next few months.

I think I'd be too scared to wear a ring that cost that much! I'm much in agreement with you that there are far more important things to spend money on.

I remember a friend of mine was bought a £10,000 antique engagement ring. I was like 'Whaaaaaaaat???'. I find it very hard to wear rings, I fiddle with them and lose them- I'd be a liability if that was me!
