Men Spending Less On Engagement Rings


According to a recent survey carried out by Wedding magazine, men are now spending around £400 less than a year ago on engagement rings.

However, it seems that the engagement ring is the only element of the wedding to see cost-cutting measures, with the average total cost of a wedding holding steady at around £20,000. This would suggest that women are less reluctant than men to cut costs for their big day!

The survey also revealed that couples are engaged for an average of 23 months, and will have been together for an average of 3 or 4 years. The average age of women on their wedding day is 29.

The registry office came out as the cheapest wedding option, with an average cost of just under £10,000.
