Yes, we're starting the ideas rolling already, as we're getting married! He got me a small 1/4 carat ring to wear while we run around & pick out the real rock - 1 Carat (lol).. I plan to keep the little one to give to our Daughter(AFTER we have one!).
Anyhow, my real query is this: I am paying for the Wedding, & my hubby-to-be's ring. *My Dad set me up with a $10K Dowry a few years ago for my wedding. HIS parents are expected to pay for the Honeymoon, by tradition. If we're spending $10K on the wedding, what is an appropriate Honeymoon budget? (He already wants to do a week in Hawaii, + a week in Australia or New Zealand.) I come from an upper middle class family, as does he. Him & his father own & run their own large construction business, so money is not quite the issue. But I want to know that I am not overstepping my bounds? (though HE is the one picking the honeymoon lol) I was thinking that no more than $2,500 or $3,000 should we be asking them to spend, if that! Any ideas?
