Our Friend in the Diamond Business
Sunday Sweetie and I went to purchase our wedding bands. Our friend in the diamond business, who also provided the engagement ring (and is open Monday through Friday 'til 8, Saturday and Sunday 'til 5) was the provider of the bands.
And let me just take a moment to blatantly plug them for any jewelry needs you might have that they could fulfill. Because I know anyone who reads this blog and has a radio can hear Tom Shane in that nasal voice of his tell us about how none of his salespeople are paid on comission and how he personally buys the diamonds and all the stuff, but the guy's got a great shop.
Every time we've gone in there (Sweetie to buy the rock, the two of us to pick out the setting for the rock, and then the two of us to buy bands) they workers have been nice and helpful, but not pushy and willing to put up with however long it took us to make our decisions and however many stupid questions we had along the way. And they were really friendly the whole time, too.
As an added bonus, once you've got the rock they basically take care of it for life for you. Need to have it resized, cleaned, the prongs checked out to make sure they're holding everything in place? All included in that initial cost.
So we now have rings. Well, I've got rings. Sweetie has never worn a ring before. He did his best to figure out what size he was with the sample size dealies they've got, but missed the mark big time, so his ring needs to go back in to be resized.
One step closer to making it official.
