Traditionally, am I supposed to buy my future groom his wedding band?

Yeah he buys your set and you should buy his ring. Its much cheaper then ours ; )

Groom Wedding Band

Traditionally, no, but now with women not leaving their parents home stright into marriage with no work experience alot of brides are oppting to buy the grooms band. If you want matching bands then make sure you all go together, but if he is telling you to save for his ring he may a little on the what's mine is mine and what's your's is your's and normally those marriages don't work.

I have always heard of the the bride paying for the grooms unless he bought it as a set when he bought your ring. ( so it matched.) Men's rings are not that expensive unless he wants diamonds!! Which very few men do! He bought you a ring why wouldn't you buy him a ring?

My soon to be wants just a simple white-gold band. The average cost is $75.00.

Best wishes on planing your special day!

Traditionally, no. The groom buys the rings and the bride's parents pay for the wedding. However, these traditions are fading. I bought my husband's band and we paid for our own wedding.

Never heard that one. But, who knows? If you can afford it and want to do it, I'd say, buy the ring. If you can't afford it, I would say so before you tie the knot.

Also, if you buy the ring for him after he's asked you to do so, I don't see him having any room to complain about the style of the ring, if he doesn't like it.

Yes, you buy the ring. If you are in such tight financial straits, perhaps you should put the wedding off until you are in better financial shape. Dave Ramsey's plan works!

As far as I'm concerned, the bride and groom and joining their lives together, which includes their finances. Doesn't it make sense for the couple to purchase the rings together?

His wedding ring is a gift from you to him to show your love and commitment so technically yes you should buy his ring.

In reality though as soon as you say "I DO" your finances are automatically combined so you should be thinking more about what "you" can afford and what "you" need to save and more in terms of "we". His pocket or yours as soon as the ring's on his finger it's all the same.

Well, if he is buying you the wedding ring, I think its only fair to buy him one too. Something he has to put on everyday to remind him he is being "ring" by you. He is yours like you are his always forever. Have a great wedding!

Hmm...i thought the bride/her family bought the groom's ring & the groom/his family bought the bride's rings. Well, that's the way we're doing it.
