DIDO.1 22,687 Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 (edited) Engagement ring? I spent £500. It was 2nd hand at the jewellers....insured for replacement at £1700. She lost it at the swimming pool and got another one she liked more. So her and the jeweller were both happy. Wedding ring....not sure how much it cost, just a simple band. I wear it on my middle finger as it won't fit the correct finger after I broke it. Wife says I wear it on my gay finger, not sure if that's correct. If she dumps you make sure you get it back. I'm still bitter my ex kept the one I got her. The slag. Edited January 7 by DIDO.1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn't the cost of the wedding ring that bothered me its how much the twisted bitter slag took after horrible cnut wolf it's not the price of the rings buddy but it's the day and the occasion that make it good luck in your search for a ring 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Borr 5,939 Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 I bought an engagement ring from fleebay it got delivered while she was stood behind me in the hallway , luckily he had a phone bill too and she believed I signed for it, then took her down cardiff bay and proposed , didn't cost more than couple hundred , we had a very frugal wedding but we didn't want to get in debt over it, just starting out. A valley hotel on the hill the son of the owner was the host , barman and DJ and sorted the buffet too lol, and surrounded by friends and family it was good. Don't over think it you'll soon be onto the next stage and the next and the next...... f***ing hell don't do it...haha enjoy it Wolfy 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
