Check Out Our Wedding Blings!

During the bridal fair last February, Mox and I booked Suarez for our wedding rings. One month later, we received a text that our  rings were ready for pickup! It is still more than a year before our wedding, but they already made our rings. In fact, if we pay them in full now, we can already take our rings home! Diba, ang excited lang. Haha!

And so, we went to their branch at Gateway at around 6:00pm to see our rings. Our AE was there and he quickly showed us the finished product.

I love our rings! They are exactly how we envisioned them to be: simple yet elegant. I'm not a fan of diamond-encrusted rings, so a single diamond on each ring is perfect. Also, the rings look so pretty on our fingers! And the most important thing of all, hindi nagmukhang bading si Mox pag suot ang ring. Hahaha!

I was actually feeling nervous at first because I've heard so many horror stories on wedding ring deceptions. Some brides say their wedding rings would have different specs from the mock-ups shown during bridal fairs or from what they originally discussed with their ring suppliers. And if they insist that the original specs must be followed, they could be charged extra for that! Nakakaloka diba? Now I'm no expert in jewelry, so I'm not sure how to tell if I am being conned or not. I just crossed my fingers and hoped that we got the best supplier for us.

Luckily, Suarez didn't fail our expectations. Our wedding rings are perfect! They have slightly rounded edges and fit comfortably on our fingers, just liked what we discussed when we booked them. Also, our rings are slightly heavier than usual, but not so heavy that they would be uncomfortable to wear. Bagay na bagay sa amin talaga.

Since we were already at their office, we paid another P2,000 to lessen our outstanding balance. And because our wedding is still far away, we decided to let Suarez keep them first. We'll probably get them by January next year once we have fully paid for them.

Seeing our rings in person made me realize that this is it, I'm truly getting married! Now I can't wait for that day to come! :)

Wedding Rings: Booked!

Last Friday, we spent a very productive day at the bridal fair because we booked not one, but two suppliers! Yey! :)

First stop was our wedding rings. In the previous bridal fair, we found a design that we both loved in Suarez Wedding Rings at the price that we could afford. So at last weekend's fair, I went straight to their booth to inquire. Our chosen ring was still there, but then I saw another ring that had a similar design, but was more aesthetically pleasing. The new ring was thicker and had round edges, which made the matte white gold center more prominent. It has a more expensive price tag though, so I was having second thoughts on whether we would choose it as our ring design.

I tried looking for other options at the different booths, but everything was P40,000 and above, which was way beyond our budget. So I went back to the Suarez booth, this time with Mox in tow, to choose between the two designs. Mox fell in love with the second ring instantly and wanted to book them already, but I was still hesitant to do so because of our ever-growing wedding budget.

Seeing our dilemma, our AE from Suarez said that we could choose the cheaper ring design and customize it to look similarly like the second ring. He suggested to dull the flat edges of the ring and make it rounder to avoid wounding the skin. He also adjusted the fit of the ring to a semi-comfort fit so that it would rest comfortably on our fingers. These customizations increased the overall price of the rings, but it was still within our budget so we decided to book Suarez and get our original ring choice.

The picture above is our chosen ring design. Since we booked them at the bridal fair, we got two 0.02 carat diamonds on each ring for free! Mox will have some bling on his ring. Haha!

Suarez offers layaway plans at a maximum term of nine months, so it wouldn't be too heavy on our pockets to pay for the rings. But since our wedding is still more than a year away, our AE allowed us to pay for the rings for 12 months, without interest! Now that's a good deal right? :)

Suarez also offers free resizing services and lifetime warranty for their rings. In addition, if we plan to upgrade our rings any time in the future, we can trade in our rings and their value will be deducted from the price of the new rings. So all we have to pay is the remaining balance. Isn't that neat? Haha!

Our AE said that we could drop by their Gateway branch by mid-March to check out our rings. Whee! I'm so excited to see the finished product. :)
