The hunt for wedding bands

Mr. Jang and I went hunting for wedding bands after we sent Gugu and Uncle Mushroom off at the airport. Most of the designs we saw were quite common but there were two that caught our eyes. One was from Lee Hwa - a rather thick, unconventional, funky kind of design where both bands had three diamonds on it; the other was from Tian Po - a very traditional and classic design which looked and felt quite solid (something like this). The Lee Hwa pair would cost less than $2000, while the Tian Po pair would cost a whopping $4500!

I actually prefer the Tian Po one. It's a once-in-a-lifetime thing afterall, and we'd have to wear it for the rest of our lives. But then again, I can't imagine spending so much on a pair of wedding bands. I could use the money to go for a nice holiday. :'(

P/S: The salesman at Tian Po said that my diamond ring could easily cost more than 2 pairs of that wedding band. Suddenly I salut Mr. Jang for having the courage to purchase such an expensive thing. Now I believe him when he said that he has no more money left in his account. Haha.
