once we were engaged, it was "our money", even though we had not merged our accounts yet.

we stopped calling it "my money" as soon as we started planning the wedding. it just made sense for us.




Thats the same for us too - my ring was about 3x as much as DHs

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

I bought his, he bought mine, his was about 3x mine, since we bought plain platinum bands.

Definitely give your FH the option to pay because maybe he will surprise you and say yes.

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

I honestly have no idea who paid (and it was only a year ago) Chat Icon

We were in the process of buying our co-op at the same time as planning the wedding and I paid for most of the wedding stuff and he paid for most of the house stuff. So, I "think" I paid for both of the rings but I am not sure Chat Icon

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

to be honest, I picked up both of our rings the week before the wedding. We do share an account so it was like we both paid for them.

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

I honestly can't remember if "we" paid or if "he" paid - I have a feeling that some of our money was put towards my band. And if that was the case I'm happy with that because at this point his is mine and mine is his.

If you want something a little more, definitely throw some cash in on there!

ETA: And oh yeah, mine is a lot more than his is!

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

We had our finances joint long before the wedding, so WE paid for all 3 wedding bands. (We got matching ones and I got a diamond band. The money came out of our joint checking account for all of them)

Us too.

As for our wedding rings, we ended up splitting the cost of them. I ordered them and paid the deposit, DH picked them up and paid the balance. Mine was more than his was.

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

We both paid for everything together out of our "wedding fund" that we set up. The only thing wedding-related that did not come out of that fund was our gifts to each other.

ETA mine was about 8x more than his. He picked mine out to match my e-ring, so he did not care that the cost was so different.

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

We had a joint account since we got engaged. We used that.

Mine was more than his, because we had mine custom made.

Re: Married girls with wedding bands

I don't even remember.. I think we paid for it together-I am pretty sure we had combined our bank accounts by then. (or were about to). Dh's was free (from the purchase of my e-ring) and my wasn't extravagant.
