How much did your e-ring cost? If you're not sure, guesstimate! How many carats, what kind of metal, etc.. come on, shamelessly brag about your FH's good work, lolololol! if you don't feel comfortable posting it, just vote in the poll! I'm curious

My new ring costs over $5000, its a 2.5 carat (don't remember which), princess cut, 3 stone ring on a yellow gold band...pics to come at the end of the month

I have no idea how much mine cost.
I do know that I love it and I love him for picking it out all by himself

ETA: Now I'm kinda curious how much he spent, lol.

i found withthe rest of the wedding stuff the recipt for the ring...

my mom works for a jewerly company so it was cheeper, the biguttes (sp) and the setting along with the band....

the center stone... which is pear shaped was origionally my grandmas, was obiviously free =)

I dont know how much FH paid exactly but I know it was appraised to like 8, 000 somthing, im guessing he paid less though because he was like wow when we got it appraised...I am happy with my ring...I love it so much ...i just wish I could wear a wedding band with it :(

mine came in just under $4,000. i love it, but i just wish it hadn't cost so much...that's a lot of money we could have put toward something else!! but of course i don't mean that i don't love my ring!

i'm not exactly sure how much mine was but i'm almost positive it was around $4k which upsets me, b/c i didn't need him to spend that much on a ring, although i do LOVE IT!!!!!

mine was about $1300 but deff appraises for more. my aunt has been a jeweler for over 20 yrs so she hooked us up with one of her guys in the diamond district.

My FH paid for part of mine with cash and worked for the rest of it (he works on cars, so he did a lot of work to our jewelers' truck). He's good like that! I'm hoping he can pull something like this for our wedding bands too!
