Don't bother with Tiffanys unless you have buckets of money or are insecure enough to worry about carrying the little green bag about!
Not to rain on your parade, but I struggle to see the value in spending a lot of money on an engagement ring. It does seem the man gets nothing out of the experience and the lady gets an expensive piece of jewellery.
If you struggle to see the value in such things then i respectfully suggest you are missing out on a whole lot of life. To suggest that "you got nothing out of the deal" is an astonishing approach to a traditional part of courtship and marraige.
It's not about the money. Never was. I pity your wife. Buy her a bunch of flowers today and tell her how much you love and appreciate her, bet it's been a while.
Various factors...Tell me then, how much money should an engagement ring cost? And where's the "value" in that? What is the difference between a e1000 ring and a e10,000 ring? (Apart from the hole in the man's bank account).
I tried on rings from £500 - £10k and picked the one that suited me, and our budget. I certainly didn't waltz into Applebys going "Gimmee the biggest & most expensive"... in fact the most expensive one was the one I liked the least!It does seem that some people, especially women, expect the poor man to shell out many thousands on a piece of jewellery. If someone's that shallow, to place such emphasis on a ring, than they are the ones who should be pitied, not me, or my wife..
God love you, my husband got a state of the art home entertainment system as his engagement pressieMy wife got an engagement ring, I got nothing. That was a statement of fact. An "engagement" is a promise to marry, and shouldn't depend on the value of a ring. Unfortunately it seems to be the opposite.

....expect the poor man .....
