We splurged because we have been saving for this for years and had a lot to get rings with.

My ring was my grandmothers ring. When she passed away she left it to me in her will. Saved

Splurge. We both saved and got exactly what we wanted. Most of our family gasps at our ring costs but they are forever. We don’t care if it means eating ramen for a few months 😂

Sabe, maybe upgraded later down the road, but pretty simple and classic

Save. My engagement ring is more than enough. I will get a simple band to go with it and my FH is probably going to get an inexpensive one as well.

Save! My wedding band was my grandmothers when she got married in 1958 so nothing spent there except to clean it. His ring was a save as well!

I feel like we’re splurging a little bit although our bands aren’t super expensive we’re still spending some money for some sparkle in my ring

Splurge! I wanted a wedding band with diamonds in it to accent my engagement ring. And I wanted my husband to have a nice wedding band. We actually got him 2 wedding bands. One is made form meteorite, which we loved the uniqueness of, and the other is titanium, so he can where it at work or for the Army and it will shatter upon impact if need be.

Well he splurged on my engagement ring by about $1000, so we're going to save on wedding rings. He's picked out a few different ones under $300, and I think mine is around that same price.

We are spluring on mine because we are doing two so that my ring keeps it's symmetrical look, but his ring is less than 1K so I consider his a save.

Saving here too, but I won't let that stop me from finding us unique rings that match our personalities.

It’s not crazy expensive considering the metal.

We're kinda splurging... He paid a lot for my set. I got my FH three bands, one is a groove ring for work (he can't wear conductive material). He also asked for a tungsten band and a ceramic band because he wanted a "fancier" work ring. But over all it wasn't to pricy. My engagement ring cost about 3x the amount I spent.

I'm content to splurge here, as they will need to endure a lot for years afterwards.

Save--my rings total for three (engagement, wedding, and a band for my step-daughter) was around $80, and we got FH ring on sale for $60.

Save - a lot ! My dad gave us his wedding ring to make our 2 rings. As he passed away soon after, I really cherish my ring now...
