No, usually engagement rings have no stones.
In the UK it is usual for the wedding ring to be placed on the finger first, followed by the engagement ring. This appears a little strange when one considers that the engagement ring is given first and is usually the more expensive of the two rings - although there is a trend here for diamond set wedding rings - and would be protected from loss if the wedding ring were to be worn after the engagement ring
All situations are different. Sometimes, the bride and groom can pay for their own wedding themselves.
It does not matter where the wedding is held you should give a wedding gift. Since the wedding is in the Caribbean then you can buy them something less expensive.
It's something related with the custom. Or it doesn't matter much.
if you choose to have a wedding, then it gives you time to prepare for the wedding and pubilicy states your intention to marry. It also publicy states you are not romantically availble to anyone else. It is an act of good faith. Technically you could decide to get married and go to city hall the next day for the marriage liscense and be set. No need for the engagement, although some might suggest that the time between deciding to get married and actually getting married, even in a matter of days, could be seen as a period of engagement.
If you want to. It's certainly not mandatory. For that matter, a dinner reception is not mandatory for a wedding.
Well, not matter who want to buy ring for wedding; men or woman. What it is matter is the color the people like more pure solid color white gold.
* * It's a matter of individual taste. Some women don't mind a small diamond ring, while other women prefer a good sized engagement ring and it use to mean years ago the bigger the diamond the more prosperous the future husband was. Today some women don't want an engagement ring and a simple gold band with an inscription on it will suffice. Women should be more aware of what their future husband's financial affairs are and if they can afford such a lavish ring and not put themselves into debt. * Mainly because men think when they show that engagement ring, and its beautiful, they will say yes and they wont say they dont wanna get married once they see the marriage ring! * Because a wedding ring is supposed to be worn at all times, and an engagement ring is both impractical as well as potentionally dangerous in some situations (risk of injury or robbery).
It is a matter of personal opinion.
Yes it does matter where you wear your engagment ring. It should only be worn on the ring finger.
there is no such thing as a wedding planner college or major for that matter. there are certifications for wedding planners but they have nothing to do with college. if you want to own your own wedding consulting business, then major in business or entreprenuership
If I'm not mistaken, it could be different in other countries. But in America, or at least what I know is the left hand.(finger closest to your pinky). Could be different in other parts of America....
