because white gold sounds unauspicious in mandarin, my mother in law declared we had to get yellow gold wedding bands.
as for the engagement ring, zyan jewellery did it for us, and yes, it was more value for money. however we went ahead with a brand name for the wedding bands, one from lee hwa, which was the white gold, and then off to a neighbourhood goldsmith for the simple plain gold rings, which actually provides good value for money if you consider that you can negotiate on the price of workmanship.
