The Ring

Just before X'mas, Mike and I were doing some X'mas shopping for my little nephew and nieces at Vivo. As always, when you least expected it, you got it. That is what happen to us, yet again.

Yeap, we purchased our ring that very day. Though still a long way to go before our actual event, but who can resist a perfect pair of rings that is also perfectly nice to our wallets?? :P Irresistable!!

Taking advantage of the X'mas sales in Dec, the total spent is definitely worth it. This is not the 1st shop we went into since we first planned for our wedding. Love & Co. a sister company of Soo Kee Jewellery is the one of the many blooming couple ring jewellers around. Tapping into the marital bliss market, they do charge rather "happily" with a price tag that I find will not bring a smile to my wallet. No doubt their designs are modern and current ( with some even close to designer rings) set with beautiful diamonds and other semi precious stones, I find that the whole "wedding band" meaning is not there anymore. To me, the wedding band is THE band that symbolizes the bond of the couple.. Everlasting and forever. Not some fancy rings that you see dating couples wear. Although at the end of the day, the decision still lies on the couple's taste, lifestyle and $$... I truly believe a practical couple will opt for a more affordable ring rather than style/fashion.

I am glad we did not make the purchase from Love & Co. The model that we chose cost 1.8K each. White gold with a certified diamond set at the top to mark the date and month of the wedding day. Unique.. but costly.

At the end of the day, simplicity is the best. :)
