The Perfect Proposal Toolkit Launches on Feb. 1 Just in Time for "Proposal Season," Providing Guidance on How to Flawlessly Pop the Big Question
Online, January 30, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Las Vegas—Planning the perfect marriage proposal is a daunting task, let alone uttering the actual words "Will you marry me?" In February, diamond and gem experts American Gem Society and American Gem Society Laboratories will launch for the second year the Perfect Proposal Toolkit.
The Perfect Proposal Toolkit is an online resource - located at www.americangemsociety.org/proposal - created to provide suggestions and inventive recommendations for both traditional and unconventional wedding proposals. The Toolkit keeps it easy by categorizing and providing tips for romantic, funny, adventurous, "2.0" and simple proposals. The site also provides expert advice on selecting the type of ring with which to propose, including what to look for when selecting the proper stones, settings, colors, sizes, etc.
To provide plenty of time to plan a small or large scale proposal, the Perfect Proposal Toolkit will be live for "proposal season" - kicking off February 1 in advance of Valentine's Day and continuing through March 20, which is recognized as National Proposal Day.
"While it is certain that we will not be able to alleviate the nerves that many will have when they actually ask the big question, the Perfect Proposal Toolkit is meant to be a great resource for providing creative and interactive proposal and ring buying ideas," said Ruth Batson, CEO of American Gem Society and American Gem Society Laboratories. "It is exciting to launch the Toolkit for a second year and I hope that visitors take advantage of the tips, as well as enter a contest to win jewelry!"
Visitors to the Perfect Proposal Toolkit can enter to win a $2,500 gift card to use at any participating American Gem Society member jewelers. The Toolkit offers an easy to use "Find A Jeweler" feature that provides contact information on all 1,700 American Gem Society certified jewelers throughout the United States.
