I'm not one of those girls that's been planning her wedding since she was five. But I DO know (and I've told my parents this) that having an awesome time with my sisters and friends at the reception/party is more important to me than how many flowers I have in the church or whatnot. And as far as I'm concerenced...I mean, I would like to have a nice sized engagement ring, but my mom's is a fairly small solitaire and she's never upgraded (they easily could if they wanted) and I think it's gorgeous because it's so simple. I would rather my fiancee and I spend that money on a reception/party and a good honeymoon. The ring can be upgraded...and the important part is getting married, not flashing the rock. That's just a luxury, and not everyone gets that luxury...and that's ok.
