Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

How much did you all pay for your wedding band (just the bride's)? I know alot depends on style, metal, etc, but just hoping to get an idea. I had budgeted x amount for the wedding band, but then I fell in love with one that was 2x! EEK! Of course I think I might have underbudgeted since I need platinum to match the ering - sigh.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

Mine was definitely over $3000.00 It depends on the style, quality, etc. Mine is a platinum eternity band. Like I said it all depends.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

i'm going to be getting a plain whitegold band, so mine will not be that expensive.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

My FH bought the wedding band the same time he bought the e-ring. I don't know how much he paid, but I think the band would be $1000+.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

I'm looking at platinum eternit bands, so it's definitely in the $1500+ category...but FH is just looking for plain platinum, so his won't be narly as expensive, which is good!

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

i will not spend more then $2,000. fh husband said i can get what ever i want, he'll get something less expensive so i can get what i want!

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

Mine will be about $1600...I'm doing platinum with pave diamonds 3/4 of the way around so my ring can be re-sized in the future if need be (arthritis runs in my family big time and both of my parents have had to ge their rings re-sized) FH's is actually going to cost about the same because he's a size 15 ring!!! The jeweler started quoting prices and then saw FH's fingers...He was like, 'Wait, what size are you?' Apparently they're going to need to go mining for platinum to make FH's ring.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

Mine (round plat. eternity band) retails for $2500+...but I paid under $1K. Definitely try to go with non-retail prices; buy from the Diamond District or any other wholesaler if possible. Retails are inflated by at least 100% in most cases.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

I'm actually having 2, an eternity diamond & platinum that matches my e-ring that is $3,000 and then we're both getting platinum vintage replica poesy rings, mine is $1,250 (his is $2,650 because it's much wider)

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

i feel in love w/an eternity band that $1200. but i doubt i'll get it. will probably wind up with something just under 1k

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

I have a eternity platnuim band. We got it from our friend who is a jeweler so we got a good price for it

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

i haven't really starting looking yet, but i know i want a diamond eternity band. FH just wants plain platinum, so we can probably save some $ there. and i def plan on going to the diamond district to get a good deal.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

mine will be in the $500, but then i need another solid band (b/c I'm jewish) for the ceremony. that one will only be $120ish or so though -- the jeweler gave me the idea to wear them both together.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

I just want to add that you can get a plain gold band for under $100. I ordered a plain 14K gold band for the honeymoon for $85. All of our rings are coming from the Diamond District.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

The one I want has to be made to match my ring. It will be a platinum band with small diamonds. It was around $1800.

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

We bought simple white gold bands, and I think I paid $150 for both. (but I went to a horrible place for them b/c I wanted to suprise him before our civil ceremony and didn't have a lot of $$)

Re: Wedding Band cost (Bride's)?

OK I definitely underbudgeted - I feel much better about my wedding band price! Gosh - everything is so expensive - it adds up quick!
