THE COUNTDOWN TO VALENTINE’S HAS BEGUN
The Perfect Proposal Toolkit Returns with New Tips
For Planning an Unforgettable Marriage Proposal
Preparing to pop the question on Valentine’s Day, but not sure how to plan the perfect moment? The clock is ticking, but there is still time. Planning the perfect proposal can seem like a daunting task, as coming up with the right way to ask those four little words (“Will you marry me?”) can pose as a challenge to even the most hopeless romantic.
In preparation for arguably the most popular day for marriage proposals, the diamond and gem experts American Gem Society and American Gem Society Laboratories have launched the Perfect Proposal Toolkit, as well as an all-new proposal countdown clock.
The revamped 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 provides a simple navigation experience, helping users find exactly what they are looking for by categorizing and providing tips for romantic, funny, adventurous, “2.0” and simple proposals.
The site 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.), memorable proposal stories, the latest trends, music playlists to set the mood and more.
The Toolkit also offers an easy to use “Find A Jeweler” feature that provides contact information on all American Gem Society certified jewelers throughout the United States.
To provide ample time to plan a small or large scale proposal, the Perfect Proposal Toolkit will be live through Valentine’s Day.
Toolkit users are encouraged to join the conversation and share their Perfect Proposal stories using the hashtag, #AGSProposal.
About American Gem Society / American Gem Society Laboratories
The American Gem Society (AGS), founded in 1934 by Robert M. Shipley, is a not-for-profit trade association dedicated to proven ethics, knowledge, and consumer protection within the jewelry industry. AGS is a professional organization awarding credentials for its members, who are held to the highest ethical and professional standards in the industry and must pass annual recertification examinations to maintain their titles. Approximately 1 in 20 jewelers in the country have met the exacting requirements necessary for membership. For further information, visit www.americangemsociety.org. Keep up with AGS on Twitter and Facebook.
The American Gem Society Laboratories (AGSL) was founded in 1996 and provides an expert, third-party evaluation of a diamond’s quality characteristics. AGSL pioneered the Ideal Cut Grade for the Round Brilliant diamond; created the first scientifically reviewed, objective, and repeatable Cut Grade method in the industry — still the only of its kind; became the first major lab to offer diamond grading reports with a Cut Grade for fancy shapes; and provides a variety of diamond grading reports, both with and without a diamond Cut Grade, to suit the specific needs of diamond manufacturers, retail jewelers, and consumers.
