solitaire is still the No. 1 sell-
er when it comes to engage-
ment rings. It is a simple, but
elegant single diamond.
Two to three months’
worth of the man’s salary is
what Richard Resnik of Jewel-
ryGuruUSA said he advises
couples to spend on the ring,
but he also recognizes that
times are tough. So, he cau-
tions them against spending
outside their means.
“Personally, I don’t think
an engagement ring should
break the bank. The main fo-
cus is what the ring is about,”
he said.
“It’s a symbol of two people
committing their lives togeth-
er. If you need to scale back,
you should. The symbolic
meaning behind it is what’s
important.”
