    O2 -- I would not care about a ring at all. As a matter of fact, if my husband's mother and grandmother before did not pass down the ring I have -- I would not have one.

    I would have just been very happy with a ring that he picked out himself that was in a style I liked -- no stone necessary.

    As a matter of fact, my husband's wedding band was just two key rings welded together .... there is a romantic story about it...but that meant something to us.

    Until my best buddy stepped in and insisted he would copy it in platinum for us -- we could not have afforded a nicer ring -- but also the key rings had a special meaning and there was nothing else we liked more. Now this new ring looks like the double key rings -- and because my best friend made it -- it has even more sentimental value to my husband and me.

    So - to me, if she insists on a ring of "value" -- he may wish to reconsider the girl IMHO. It is about the sentiment - not the money/value/brag factor.

          I am with NG on this one. I would be happy if the man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with was willing to make that commitment with or without the ring.

          Same with weddings - too many women are more concerned about their wedding than they are with the man they are marrying or the actual marriage. If you really care for each other materials won't mean much.
