Wedding Ring Tragedy


This is how we wanted our wedding rings to look like with very minimal alteration. Instead of all in white gold, we wanted the sides to be in yellow gold and keep the white gold on the rest.

But earlier this morning, our excitement on the wedding rings went out like *poof*. We got the two-tone requirement that we specified. But the rest of it is just, tragedy. The diamonds are too far apart with each other. Sabe ko na lang, "Baby, galit-galit yung diamonds natin, o!" And it's not just that. There are even more lapses in the quality of the rings. The lines on the sides are not smoothly created. There are a lot of "bubbles" on h2b's rings. "Dirts" are even visible. On mine, the way the diamonds were set on the gold was poorly done. The distance between the three ices are uneven. Moreso, the lines in between the stones are not there. The engravings are sketchy. It was as if a gradeschooler made his engraving project on a soap bar. To make the description short, the simple elegance of the rings that we wanted was just... not there. :(

We exceeded the budget for the wedding rings as we never wanted the quality to be sacrificed or in any way compensated with it's worth. But at this point, I can't even say that the price did justice to the final output.
This is our wedding rings we are talking about... :(

  1. Hi sis,

    I'm sad anyway sometimes it to hard to transact with someone you know? because you thought u have a good deal with them but Unfornutely you doesn't... if happen with me I’m going to turn back the ring and demand to them, you better fixed it the way I wanted my payment worth it for the kind of workmanship...I know I’m too bad Lol and it just a matter of negotiation and how to deliver your word with them with sweet terms hehehe... You have to demand them as long your justifiable your payment to them...

    happy preps!!!

  2. i'm sad to hear na disappointed kayo sa outcome. i understand your dilemma that you don't want to confront the supplier since close ng sister mo. nakwento mo na ba sa sister mo? anong sabi? i guess pwede mo ipadaan sa sister mo baka alam nya how to best approach the supplier. pero for me mas okay na i-raise mo na you're not satisfied and demand that they correct it. mahirap yung "tiisin" mo yung rings - lifetime nyo isusuot yan ni h2b yan eh.

  3. nasabi ko na sa sister ko. di ko rin kasi matiis na maghintay pa na makita nya un mismong rings bago ako mag comment. tinext ko na sya! sabe nya nga, ibalik ko daw at ipaayos. may go signal na ako sa ate ko, so ipapaayos tlga namen to ulet sa kanila. saka korek kau jan, forever na nasa daliri namen ang wedding rings at hindi ako willing "magtiis sa chaka na singsing" for life :p
