If you have not already stopped by OneWed, now is the time to do it.
The site is a valuable resource for both brides and vendors, with
inspiration, a fabulous blog called Savvy Scoop,and links to vendors and bridal shows in your area. Right now, OneWed is hosting an amazing contest, giving away a pair of hand engraved Platinum wedding bands by Kirk Kara, valued at $5,000! The contest is in honor of the growing trend of women proposing to their men (a la The Proposal, or Monica and Chandler on Friends), and the lucky winner will be able to do just that, armed with these Platinum bands!
Some notes about Platinum:
Color: Unlike white gold, it’s a naturally white metal so the color will never fade.
Strong yet Gentle: It’s the strongest precious metal, so it will stand up to daily wear and tear. Even better, it’s a pure metal, making it hypoallergenic, ideal for the bride or groom with sensitive skin.
Rare: Platinum is 30 times more rare than gold. In fact, it is estimated that if all the mined Platinum in the world was poured into one Olympic-sized swimming pool, it would only be enough to cover your ankles. Gold, on the other hand, would completely fill more than three pools!
Here's how to enter the contest:
Tell us in 200 words or less how you would (or will) POP your Platinum Proposal, and you could win his and hers Platinum wedding bands from jewelry designer Kirk Kara. Send your platinum proposal story to [email protected] before midnight on July 15th. And don't forget, you must register on OneWed.com first, and provide your OneWed username along with your Platinum Proposal story! For full contest details, rules, and guidelines, click HERE!
