Planning to propose in a few months, what should I look for in a good value engagement ring? - eviltoast

My SO and I discussed that engagement rings shouldn’t be expensive.

What should I look for in good value rings? Lab grown diamonds? Fake diamonds? gold? white gold? silver? platinum?

Also, what kind of cut? Moissante vs Lab grown?

    I got our engagement rings from a gumball machine. Was really hard to find. And even harder to find one that sold rings. When I had finally found one I didn’t have a single 20 cent coin it required on me. I flagged down passerby from across the street. She gave me two coins and refused to take my one Euro in exchange.

    Those two coins netted me five balls, which included three rings. I selected the most beautiful and headed home.

    We’ve been married for over 13 years so far.
