00:00 Hot topic for netizens, is it okay to give almost P300 for a future bride?
00:07 We asked for the opinion of experts and even spouses who have an engagement ring worth P299.
00:15 Let's watch the report of Oscar Oida.
00:18 Not all gifts are expensive.
00:23 But if your loved one is expensive, should you give the same amount of money?
00:29 The talk came from a post on a Facebook page.
00:34 A woman was dismayed because she received an engagement ring worth P300 from her boyfriend.
00:44 Different versions were spread online, including the story of the man who gave the ring.
00:51 But the FB page clarified that the screenshot of the original post posted
00:56 showed that the woman behind it is not true.
01:00 But it happened in real life, like the spouses Hannah Camille and Dan Joseph Villar.
01:08 The engagement ring that was given to Hannah is worth P299.
01:14 But for her, there is no equivalent value of asking her hand for marriage.
01:20 The reality is you don't need to go broke finding the perfect ring.
01:27 Don't feel pressured into spending more than you're willing to.
01:30 Dan is better off getting married and having her own house.
01:37 I don't know if she saved her money for our wedding.
01:42 She has savings for the wedding.
01:44 The important thing is to marry the person you love, take good care of them, and most of all, love them.
01:53 How much should an engagement ring be worth?
01:57 You need to be practical, but it depends on your love.
02:01 It depends on if you really gave it to me or you just forced yourself to give it to me.
02:06 As long as you love, love each other. The price won't matter.
02:11 Why?
02:14 Because life is hard.
02:16 The price depends on the financial stability or financial standing of the couple.
02:28 If their finances are not that stable, you don't need an expensive engagement ring to make them feel your love.
02:40 Joselyn Laverinto, a marriage counselor, said that some people's reluctance to buy a ring is valid.
02:49 Especially since it's a big part of their lives.
02:53 Engagement ring is a symbol of commitment.
02:56 Especially for Filipinos, it's a pride for a woman to receive an expensive ring.
03:04 The couple, Pia Salvation and Martin Dominic, have an expensive engagement ring because for Dominic, it's an investment worth a lot.
03:16 You can decide how big or small your wedding should be.
03:20 It can be your house or your car.
03:23 But at the end of the day, you should decide together as a couple.
03:27 You should be in agreement with all your movements because you're already a couple.
