Shock! Another disagreement with my future MIL
We were discussing wedding rings earlier and I told her about some I've seen in the sale. She says we should spend more than that on the ring because it has to last us the rest of our lives. I told her we couldn't afford to. So she told me to drop something from the wedding (this coming from the woman who wants us to serve food in the evening, which we also can't afford to do) so we can spend more on the rings.
Now, I may be looking at this the wrong way so I'm happy to hear your views on it, but to me, the rings can be replaced for more expensive rings at any later date down the line. Small details on the day are just that. Details! But it's the only day we get to have them and in my opinion can help make the day more memorable for everyone Should we be focusing our money on the bis that'll last us forever, or should we be spending it on the day??
