Wedding Rings by Matus Jewellery [Happy Details]

Now that we have finally posted about our happy day, it's time to talk about the details. If you've been following this blog since we got engaged, you probably noticed that though we had a ton of stories to tell, we didn't really post about the specifics. That's because we chose to keep it all to ourselves so our wedding could still have the element of surprise. Well, we can talk about everything now, yay! p.s. Please read our note about suppliers.

It's time to talk about our rings. They're really simple white gold bands that look like our promise rings from 1999 and my engagement ring.

Our wedding rings

Matus Jewellery was our ring-maker. Almost all our transactions with them were done at bridal fairs, except for our final fitting and pick-up which happened at their store in Megamall. [See these posts for our Matus stories: Wedding Expo Philippines, The Weddings and Debuts Fair.] 

Like I said above, the wedding rings we chose were based on our promise rings from long ago, and my engagement ring. They're half-round, white gold bands with diamonds (a Matus trademark) plus our first names and wedding date engraved inside them. Mine also had a mini diamond because it's my birthstone.

The rings

The package we got also came with mock rings made of silver. They look almost exactly like our wedding rings, but of less value. They are handy for beach trips, or any other situations where we feel like our rings might get lost, such as a trip to Binondo. We can tell the rings apart by how the silver rings are a bit flatter than the real white gold ones. The mock diamond also looks dull, while the diamond on the real ring is sparkly and clear. The silver ones also don't have diamonds inside. 

We had a really smooth experience with Matus. We inquired, we booked them, we did an initial fitting at the bridal fair, we had a final fitting at their store, and that was it. It was hassle-free, they knew their stuff, and we didn't have to make adjustments or make any other changes. The rings came out perfect. They're heavy and thick -- just like we wanted them to be. We saw other less expensive rings from other suppliers that looked like ours, but they were a lot lighter and not as solid. I guess when it comes to wedding rings, you get what you pay for. Matus offers great quality and great customer service at great prices.
