I say that because it was a headache for me and Seng. Looking at all possible designs from jeweler to jeweler, and the more we see the more confused we got. For one, we decided that we did not want to go to the mainstream jewelers, and two, we were on a budget. Well, Seng and I thought that we don’t have to spend alot for a wedding band. It had to be of a classic design, simple yet modern and elegant. And something that would last a lifetime, design and durability wise.
After looking at rings from various jewelers, we decided to go ala carte.
Why?
Very simple. Seng and I could not come to a compromise on the design of the rings. For example, if he saw a design that he liked, I would not really like it, and vice versa. So, we thought, why not try to find designs that were closely similar to compliment each other. But so far, ziltch.
It was until we went to a jeweler, and I found my dream wedding ring. But! There in lies another headache, we had to find one for Seng that would compliment the ring I wanted. After searching, we finally got really fustrated and decided, what the hell. It’s just a freaking ring that symbolises us being married, and any ring should work fine, as long as they don’t disintegrate 5 years down the road. So why not we just get what we like, seperately. As in totally different designs that totally did not compliment each other. And we did, and we were 3/4 way into getting them. Haha…
That’s when I got a nagging session from my parents.
I loved the ring that I wanted so badly, but I also loved the ring that Seng wanted to get as his ring. So me and my parents went back to the jeweler, where we saw Seng’s ring, and took a second look at the ring. Did I mention that they had the ring in Seng’s and my size? My parents actually like that ring, and commented that it looked and felt solid.
Thus, we decided that we were done searching.
Our wedding bands!
With flash
The photos do not do justice to the rings. Bleah…
Ok, ok.. I know what you all are thinking. Didn’t I say we didn’t want the same looking type of wedding bands? Yes, I did. But for once, Seng and I actually liked the same ring, and they fit perfectly. And also they were the last pair. And they were going at an affordable price, for a solid piece of metal, with diamonds, embedded in the ring, all around.
So yes, we got them.
Practically a year in advance. The ROM is in April next year.
But!!! One item off the list, one less thing to think about. Hah…
