Weddings are symbolic of new beginnings. In the midst of a cataclysmic event such as this pandemic, celebrating love between two people and the union of families take on an even deeper meaning—hope, a fresh start and a promise of renewal.
Not to take the romance out of it, but a diamond engagement ring, especially during a crisis, is a store of value, an object of investment—like fine art, only wearable.
