Well, since this is the "megathread", I'm assuming it's safe to talk about things other than rings. I was engaged for 6 months during a 5 year relationship, but unfortunately, things didn't work out and we went our separate ways. Anyway - my ring (which was absolutely amazing, 1.2 carats) cost my fiancee between $5000-$8000. He never gave me an exact amount, but I'd say it was closer to $6000 - $7000. My wedding dress was about $800. It was a Moonlight dress. My veil (long) was $300 and the shoes were $135. This poo poo is expensive. The Bridesmaid dresses were $90 each from good ol' Davids Bridal. The catering and photography packages we were looking at were between $1200-$2400. The cake (I wanted cupcakes instead) would've ran about $300. Yeah, weddings are definitely not cheap. I would caution any couple, specifically those who are paying for it themselves, to really take a look at what is most important and "cut the fat", if you will. If I ever get engaged again, I will never, ever ,ever go through planning a big wedding again. It was horrible, stressful, and zero fun. I'd rather go to Hawaii or Vegas instead!
