Excellent Customized Wedding Rings
I didn’t know how to even begin looking for an engagement ring, let alone wedding rings. At first I read the 4c’s of diamonds – waaaay too confusing – seriously, we’re not going to figure this out by reading a blog. So I visited the shop they provided me with a bunch of designs to help me get started. What I found very helpful was when Marvel explained to me the pros and cons of my design choices. Like the 1st engagement ring design I chose had gold knuckles on the white gold ring. Marvel explained to me that the knuckles would make the rock (diamond) look yellowish even though it was clear. This is the kind of advice us dudes need to hear. Anyway I opted for the classic modern engagement ring style – tip to men, only measure your wife ring finger once (when she is asleep). And don’t use an ipad cable or string to measure her finger’s circumference! Oh and I also learned that the MAN ALONE chooses the engagement ring, but the wedding ring is chosen TOGETHER with the wife!
The wife and I wanted our own custom designs for the wedding rings. Here were the designs we found online:
This is how it turned out:
My wife wears both her rings together. What’s funny is she likes mine so much that she wants to get one just like it. My ring’s design is just awesome – actually I think it turned out better than the design I had in mind since it looks more manly. The fit is absolutely perfect, easy enough to put on and take off. Men, make sure when you get a ring to make it thicker than 1mm like 1.6+ so it looks manly! And have your engraving ready when you choose your design and NOT last minute! If you are from the Philippines, guys – please go to the store and so you have a comparison vs the stuff you see at malls. Guys when you choose the ring bring your designs and ask for FEEDBACK because these guys can tell you things you would not have known (or read online). Hikaru – you’re awesome!
