What was the alternative stone?

2.5k. But her center stone was an inherited 1.5 carat diamond from her grandmother.

Sapphire, 2.5 carats

I picked it out, a vintage sapphire in platinum setting, I think it was just under 2k. I also picked out a matching vintage wedding band, which was 600$. He chose a 60$ titanium band and bought a back up in case he lost one. our finances had just been commingled, so I would say that "we" bought it together. He was willing to spend more, but after one afternoon looking at traditional rings, I was underwhelmed.

$4000 engagement.

$100 or so wedding band

$0. Wouldn't have any interest in marrying the sort of woman who expected one.

Engagement ring: $500, no diamonds, at my request (I said no engagement ring was fine--he was nervous about taking me at my word). Lost it sometime after we got married.

Wedding rings, I paid for: $200 plain gold band for him, $150 white gold ring for me which made me break out. Got another rose gold for $300, it also made me break out. Now I wear a plain gold band I got from his mom... when I wear a ring at all. I find them annoying. He initially said he didn't want a wedding band, I said, "how about something just for the ceremony" -- but he never takes his off, after almost 12 years together.

$0.00 - Family ring

$6k for the engagement ring. $500 for the wedding band. I should have spent about $100 total if I had a brain.

I didn't give her an an engagement ring. I was poor. I still am, thanks to her!
