We decided on some cheap silver rings. We really didn’t want to carry around something extremely valuable everywhere. Go swimming and lose 5000€ in the lake? Do some yard work and lose your diamond ring there? Getting mugged and the robber is getting something really expensive? No, thank you.
Expensive wedding rings & jewelery did make sense in the past when women were not allowed their own money, bank accounts etc. as a way to escape an abusive husband. Pawn your expensive wedding ring, get cash for the getaway. But we’re not living in the 50s, my wife has her own bank account, is earning her own money, so no need for something like that.

Yeah, on a similar note it is really nice to finally have a new phone, but I’ll miss the fact that losing my old phone would only set me back $50.

We did the same. Some silver bands from a local artist.
Paid off when one was lost. The artist was still available for a new order.
