Wedding Details: The Rings!

yahoo, finally, i know where to start! :D

i've done my assignment and stared endlessly at our few-out-of-the-million photos. i have to nudge my silly self and start writing. so here goes...

i initially wanted an eternity white gold ring :D (okay, we can't afford that). but at least a white gold ring with some diamonds. i was feeling all girly when we started our planning, so i felt like a glittery ring will surely look good on my finger. i was that sure. while the husband, on the other hand, already knew what kind of design he wanted - white gold, plain, simple and thick!

when we started checking all the jewelry shops here in Singapore, (and I mean ALL, because even Indian shops, we visited to be sure we won't miss anything.), we were actually disappointed. most of them have the same designs. nothing unique at all. if there's something pretty, it was way out of our budget. but one thing i discovered during our search, the diamond ring did not look good on my finger :( well, in my own opinion. i realized, i am not the girlaloo type who can act prim and proper, so too much diamonds won't really suit me. i've decided, one diamond ring is enough, and that is my engagement ring.

we agreed to look online for the design we wanted and have it customized instead but we had no idea where to find a supplier. i was so frantic because i wanted to catch up with the sale period so we can at least save. but the husband convinced me, that we can't just sacrifice one of the things important during the wedding just so we can buy it cheap. (this guy is a smartie :D)

true enough, we waited! then i remembered i read through Tisha's blog that their wedding bands were customized by a friend. so we informed her, sent our designs and the good friend, Linette Ramos, gave us a really good rate. just perfect!

you see, we are easy to please. we didn't have an inch of doubt that Linette could not provide us our customized wedding rings. looking at the samples she showed during our one and only met up last September (3 months before our wedding), only proved that she could deliver. and boy, how lucky we were! the rings were ready after two weeks and they were the exact designs of the rings we wanted - white gold, plain, simple and pretty. the husband was so happy with the thickness of his ring while mine was just perfect for my little ring finger.

Linette was truly one of our heaven-sent suppliers, who came just in time to calm me from my paranoia. So if you're planning to have your wedding rings customized, don't hesitate to contact her at +63927-4344849.
