Custom-made

After going to Goldheart, Soo Kee, Poh Heng, Lee Hwa, Citigems, and the likes, we've decided that we'll just borrow ideas from what we saw there and get our wedding bands custom-made somewhere else where they don't spend tonnes on advertisements and sales staff.

I think we're more or less decided to go with a ching-chong jeweller that takes up half a HDB shop space in Ang Mo Kio. This lady was recommended to me by Auntie Amy. Cousin Grace and Lynette both had their wedding jewellery made/set there.

The lady at the ching-chong jewellery shop is a great business woman! She custom-makes jewellery, buys gold jewellery you don't want or need cash in exchange for, allows jewellery trade-in, repairs/services watches, can add diamonds to your eg. rolex watch. Don't you love it when people say more can's than cannot's especially in the sales and service industry?

There are 2 things I care more about with regards to wedding stuff. The gown and the rings. So we're having both custom-made to satisfy fussy me.
