I got an opal engagement ring, it's beautiful and I like it so much more than the diamond rings I looked at. It was 500 bucks. So another way to save is to go against tradition.

The "tradition" of diamonds as engagement and wedding rings is about one century old. It was invented out of whole cloth as a marketing campaign by the diamond mining industry.
