In the news; Marriage Proposal Story Contest Winner Announced by Platinum Guild and Groom Groove

NEW YORK, Dec 08, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Platinum Guild International, the worldwide marketing arm for Platinum jewelry, and GroomGroove.com, the leading engagement and wedding web site for men, today announced the winner of the first "Platinum Marriage Proposal Story" contest. Sean Palmgren and his fiancee Betsey Krause from Minneapolis, Minnesota win two platinum wedding bands courtesy of Novell Design Studio.

Palmgren recounts: "I spelled the letters of 'Will You Marry Me' on the tops of 20 umbrellas. I took Betsey to a park on a sunny day, where she spotted people holding the umbrellas. She didn't know they were our friends and family until the umbrellas were lowered, spelling the words. I then proposed with a platinum diamond engagement ring."

See photos and read the full winning Platinum marriage proposal story on GroomGroove.com by clicking the link. The grand prize of two Platinum wedding bands symbolizes the lifelong commitment of two people when entering marriage. Platinum is the strongest and most durable of all precious metals. As a result, it holds the diamond more securely and won't lose its luster over time.

"Sean clearly put a good deal of thought and planning into his proposal," said Mike Arnot, of GroomGroove.com. "The main ingredient was imagination. It shows that guys don't necessarily have to break the bank for a memorable marriage proposal."

Given the valuable grand prize, men from across the country were eager to share the story of their marriage proposal. One common theme was that men often sought the blessing of the marriage from their future in-laws.

Since launching its "Platinum Marriage Proposal Contest," GroomGroove.com has built the most comprehensive marriage proposals archive on the Internet.

VIDEO from Medialink and Platinum Guild International: Platinum Engagement Rings & Wedding Bands

NEW YORK, Nov 28, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Surveys show when it comes to engagement rings and wedding bands, platinum is her first choice. Because it's a pure and naturally white metal, unlike white gold that isn't truly white, platinum will enhance the sparkle and brilliance of a diamond. Platinum won't fade or tarnish over time.

(See video from Platinum Guild International at: http://media.medialink.com/WebNR.aspx?story=35991)

For the guy who's making the investment in the diamond, platinum will hold that stone more securely -- that's why the world's most important diamonds are always set into platinum. Look for your wedding bands at the same time as the engagement ring to see how all three rings work together and buy your wedding bands at least six months before the wedding.

Press release: Win a Free Set of Platinum Wedding Rings!

Platinum Guild International (PGI) and engagement and wedding website GroomGroove.com have partnered to launch a marriage-proposal story contest. Grooms-to-be are invited to share the story of how they popped the question, and entries will be featured on GroomGroove.com's Marriage Proposal Story Archive. The entrant with the best story will be awarded a pair of platinum wedding rings courtesy of Novell Design Studio.

Enter the contest.

The Meaning of Platinum
Novell has always emphasized that platinum is the superior metal choice for both men's and women's wedding rings. Yet for each individual, the same metal can also be symbolic of very different things. For her, platinum represents the pure expression of love shared; it is precious, rare and eternal. For him, platinum is a magnificent, distinguished and resilient mineral that separates the man wearing it from those that do not. No other precious metal offers the same level of excellence.

Why Choose Platinum For Your Wedding Rings?
Love lasts a lifetime, and so should your platinum wedding rings. With the inflated costs of nearly everything associated with throwing a proper wedding (the cake, music, ice sculpture, cuisine, etc.), platinum is one of the few items that may actually increase in value as time passes. Your platinum jewelry can potentially become an heirloom, so you can pass it down to future generations. Imagine the face of your child, grandchild or great-grandchild lighting up as they inherit a genuine piece of family history. Feel free to download more information about platinum at www.novelldesignstudio.com/platinum.

Press release: Platinum Wedding Rings in Modern Bride

The October/November 2008 edition of Modern Bride magazine features Novell platinum wedding ring styles P1695-6GC and P1800-4LC in “The Style Files” section.

Press release: New Palladium Wedding Rings on LuxuryPalladium.com

LuxuryPalladium.com, an official website for Palladium Alliance International, features Novell palladium styles L8048-6GC, L8050-6GC, L8051-6GC and L8055-6GC in the site’s jewelry gallery. The website has been recently redesigned and re-launched with tools that are specifically created for the jewelry industry trade, but may be of interest to consumers as well. An additional consumer-oriented website will soon follow. Novell has been offering palladium as an option for its wedding rings for the past four years.

Why palladium?
Palladium is a white precious metal that is a member of the family of the platinum group metals. It is mined in some of the same places as platinum and shares similar scientific qualities with the other metals in this group. It stays white, is durable, and as time goes on, even more new jewelry applications for this metal are inevitable. Yet, the most exciting thing about palladium is that it is precious and pure, so you can make an apple to apple comparison of its relation to platinum. Bridal jewelry created from palladium will stand the test of time. For more information about the metal, please visit http://www.novelldesignstudio.com/palladium.html.

Here are some additional palladium facts to help you make up your mind:
• Palladium is one of the earth's great white precious metals.
• Palladium jewelry offers some of the finer qualities of platinum but currently costs less. It even costs less than gold.
• While platinum will always remain the hallmark for white metal jewelry, palladium is a close relative that can step in and get the job done.
• Palladium is hypo-allergenic.
• Palladium is naturally white, so rhodium plating is not necessary.
• Palladium is durable, so wedding rings made of palladium will stand the test of time.
• Palladium's purity and preciousness make it an extremely attractive value when compared to the lesser non-precious jewelry metals, like titanium and tungsten.

Press release: "Choosing The Right Metal" Video Features Music By Composer Paul Schwartz

Novell Design Studio, a leading wedding ring manufacturer which specializes in product customization, is proud to announce the availability of its new online video brochure - Choosing the Right Metal for Your Bridal Jewelry. This video is designed to help the average consumer decide which metal will be the best choice for their wedding or engagement ring, as these rings are not only a symbol of love and celebration, but can also be assets to be treasured in the years ahead. The video’s soundtrack features the song “Center of My Heart,” a selection from composer Paul Schwartz’s latest album - State of Grace III. From modern pulsing rhythmic tracks to small acoustic ensembles and broadly orchestrated numbers, State of Grace III features a wide range of musical styles to mirror Novell’s ample array of wedding ring styles.

A Brief Overview of Each Metal
Each of the precious metals that Novell uses to manufacture their bridal jewelry – platinum, palladium, and gold – can have a place in almost any jewelry collection. However, platinum and palladium both have additional benefits that contribute to nearly everlasting durability and longevity. Novell recommends that nearly every consumer should consider the following when selecting a metal for their wedding ring as well as other jewelry:

• Choose yellow gold if you prefer a yellow color metal surrounding your diamond, or if you simply desire yellow gold to other metals.
• Choose white gold if you prefer a white color and don’t mind a ring that may lose its whiteness over time or due to wear.
• Choose palladium for a silvery white color that lasts, but may currently be considered less treasured than platinum.
• Choose platinum for an eternally white, naturally enduring metal, whose beauty and rareness will be treasured for generations.

In addition to platinum, palladium, and gold, tungsten and titanium are also other options for wedding rings. Novell suggests consumers also consider each metal’s purity, life span, surface strength and restoration factors while making their final decision. The video and free brochure download for Choosing the Right Metal for Your Bridal Jewelry are available www.novelldesignstudio.com. The video can also be viewed at video.finditt.com.

Press release: Preview Video for Argentium Silver Wedding Rings

Novell Design Studio, a leading wedding ring manufacturer which specializes in product customization, is proud to announce the availability of a new online video brochure for its brand new collection of wedding rings manufactured with Argentium Sterling Silver and 18kt gold. The video is a preview of new styles that were just introduced to the jewelry industry at this year’s JCK Show in Las Vegas. The soundtrack features the instrumental selection “...et Lux Perpetua,” a track from composer Paul Schwartz’s recent album - State of Grace III. From modern pulsing rhythmic tracks to small acoustic ensembles and broadly orchestrated numbers, State of Grace III features a wide range of musical styles.

Why Use Argentium Sterling Silver For Wedding Rings?
For the past few years, Novell has been searching for a better choice over the non-precious materials that are being using for some wedding rings today. And for the manufacturer, Argentium Sterling Silver seems to be the answer. Not only is the metal affordable, but it also has other benefits which make it a stronger selection over tungsten and titanium steel. They are:

• Argentium Sterling Silver stays bright and beautiful for years.
• Argentium Sterling Silver is a naturally hard metal, which lends itself to greater strength than regular sterling silver. It is durable and can be considered problem-free by most standards.
• Argentium Sterling Silver is highly tarnish resistant – so its shine is long lasting. There is no need for additional professional polishing or excessive care. Warm water and a mild detergent are all that are required to maintain its appearance. Smudges can easily be removed by using a soft dry cloth only.
• It is a “green” metal – friendly to the environment. Chemicals are not required to correct potential firescale (or fire stain) damage to metal which sometimes occurs when metals are heated during the manufacturing process.
