Re: About how much are your guys spending on their wedding bands?

My DH's retails for $850, we paid half that but it's white gold (6mm brushed metal). I think the average is between $200 for white gold up to $6000 for plat with diamonds.

ETA: Mine retails for $2500, we paid a little over $800 for 1/2 ct 2mm diamond eternity band in plat.

$450 for DF - white gold 6mm size 9 3/4
$550 for me - platinum 2.5 mm size 6 1/2

neither one of us has any stones in the rings

ETA: we got them from Fortunoffs and that includes the price we paid for engraving - hand engraving symbols (heart and infinity) inside the ring is expensive (ABOUT $60).

Re: About how much are your guys spending on their wedding bands?

my FH doesn't want anything w/diamonds. I can't see us spending more than a few hundred $.

he's either getting titanium or gold. he doesn't like how heavy platinum is.
