DH bought what he could afford when we got engaged (.5 carat) and I wouldn't trade it for the world. I got a fancier wedding band but by the time it came time to buy the wedding bands we were making considerably more money.
I'm not a jewelry kind of girl. Never have been. The only things I wear is my engagment ring and wedding band. Sometimes I've thought about upgrading my engagement ring to something larger but always can't find myself able to do it.
Many of my friends are getting engaged now and their hubby to be makes more than my DH did when he proposed (early!); their rings are bigger, obviously. But, there's something really wonderful about looking down at my ring and it being proof of how long we've been together and in love. (of course, not saying someone with a larger carat isn't in love) To each his own.
