Gerald and I just picked out our wedding bands from vivo diamond. It was a super fun experience! Didn't think we would pick our bands out so fast but we were pretty convinced hehe.
We were asked to choose and select
wedding bands separately... without asking the other whether it was nice. We were told this was to ensure that we like the bands we would end up with... Without being influenced by the other's opinions.
After trying so many rings, I ended up shortlisting only 3 bands and Gerald chose 5! And we found out that only one pair was matching! And that was -the- pair. The pair we both liked.
I found it amazing how we managed to find something that was 'us'. This process made me realize how a wedding should be... Made up of meaningful decisions and personal touches that reflect us as who we really are as a couple. The rings that we chose may not be our favorites... But they're a set which both of us we like. We were willing to give up choosing separate rings which we loved and come to a compromise. That's what love it really is. About making compromises.
This entire experience has been rather special I must say. Gerald was very pleased with the bands and the price. And while I liked my band, I eventually said yes because I wanted to make him happy too!
