I can't believe that we settled the weddings in just 1 weekend! Or rather in just 24 hours..!!!
went ring shopping on Sat at Orchard Ion, since there's a jewellery street with the usual shops.. don't need to walk too much to shop for rings.. Didn't look at the bigger brands like Tiffany or Cartier since we do not have a budget for them..
Shopped for about an hour and we have narrowed our choices to Goldheart and Love&Co..
Went to check out the rings again after our church service.. and we finally settled for Love&Co..
I opted for a half-eternity ring to match with my engagement ring.. The actual ring is thinner than this..
I was contemplating if I should wear the WB by itself or to match with the e-ring.. I reckon that if I get a stand-alone WB, the search for our WB will be longer cause AH is a super-duper fussy man when it comes to ring.. He doesn't like thick rings, his current ring is the female version of the couple ring.. (yea we bought 2 female rings in different sizes back then) and he likes comfort fit rings.. We spent almost 1 month to search for the correct couples ring few years ago.. And also I would not want my WB to be worn out so fast, so in the end I decided that the WB should match with the e-ring and I would be wearing them on weekends, holidays or days that I'm not working.. I work in an environment that is not ideal to wear rings, especially expensive ones.. My SK couple ring has many scratches now and once the diamond on it fell off and I had to get it replaced.
AH got himself a matt platinum ring to match my eternity ring.. although it's not a comfort fit cut, but at least its "thin" enough to match his criteria.. oh ya, AH too will not be wearing the WB on a daily basis as he is very comfortable with our couple ring..
Great idea to wear our WB on weekend basis so we won't get sick of them so fast! We are such unconventional couple!
The best thing about Love&Co is all rings are custom-made BRAND NEW !! Unlike other jewellery shops, they will only custom make your rings if they do not have the stock in their warehouse..The price of our rings is also very reasonable!! Under $2k for both rings since they are having a 10% discount with some credit cards.. The downside of Love&Co is that engraving is not free, and they do not provide 1 free polishing service..
Now we just need to wait 3 months for the rings.. EXCITED!!!
Love&Co
