Well have you got a high street? A yellow pages?
We went to Hinds and to samuels for the wedding rings. We are both very happy with the quality of ours and with 5 year insurance for each ring the whole lot cost us £500 and we got rings we wanted rather than "you must spend x amount"

There are a few on the side street fenwicks is on (between belvoir street and the market).
Get yourself down to the jewellery quarter in Birmingham. Go into a few of the places there and spec the diamond you want, or budget, and see what they have to offer, bit of haggling needed playing them off against each other.
Once you've picked the diamond they'll mount it, job done. You'll save yourself loads over high street prices and/or get far more for your money.
I bought from there and asked for similar in a few high street shops and the nearest I got was more than 3 times the price.
How much did you guys spend on a ring? Not an elizabeth duke job i take it?
Spend as much as you want or are comfortable with.

I can recommend Bicknells & Sons in the Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham. They made the most beautiful engagment and eternity rings for Mrs Clanger. I have to admit that they weren't the cheapest - but the quality of the rings is fantastic.

Listen to this man.
I agree, but my question wasn't how much I would spend.
I spent around a grand 3 years ago, that's cheap compared to what some of my friends spend but I took her to the shop to pick and that's the one she liked. Fortunately has small hands so large rocks looked daft on her

That's where I got my wife's engagement ring. The service was good and they do life time polishing / servicing if that matters to you. Almost wish I'd made one myself out of tinfoil and stuck £3k towards the honeymoon though. Bitch still would have stayed with me.
