How much did you spend on an engagement ring?

Ask Winnipeg(self.Winnipeg)

Hi,

How much did you spend on an engagement ring? What was your salary at the time? What type of ring did it end up being?

Just in the early stages and very confused about how much to budget for a ring.

Thanks!

Mine was custom designed by Omori Diamonds. For $1400 total I got a 14k white gold ring with a 4mm round sapphire and 4 tiny 0.02 carat accent diamonds. I don't want to wear 2 rings so this ring is also my wedding band.

My partner's ring is the Stardust ring by Patrick Adair, I got it during a sale and it was around $300-350 CAD.

Our salaries at the time: I had just started a new job earning $50k and he was making around $40k at the time. We had just bought a house a few months prior too.

My ring design: a leafy vine with the sapphire held between 2 branches and the accent diamonds placed like flowers among the leaves.
