What's more important to the both of you, the cost of the wedding/ring or the end result of the two of you together?

It kills me as to why so many people look to spend a lot of money up front on a wedding/ring when it will or could put them in the poor house. Being newly married and broke is a bad mix and have led many couples to divorce within years of getting married.

I have been married for 14 years and my wife and I were broke (not because of the wedding or rings). It was more important that we be together so, we purchased a cheaper his and hers ring set for about $600. later, when we had more money, we purchased a better set on one of our anniversaries.

If you give up your car you may regret it and her later. If you have to consider getting rid of your car to get married then, you're probably going to struggle to support a family.
