Perfect Proposal Prize Packages!

Each of our 2010 Perfect Proposal Winners picked up their prize packages last Friday, and it was great to have both couples in my store! Myrla and Gary Pierson will be headed to The Boulevard restaurant sometime in the near future with transportation courtesy of King's Limo Service. Hallie Moore and Chase Vincent, our engaged couple, will dine at Mahogany Prime Steakhouse with limo service as well, and their wedding will receive a complimentary page in The Bride's of Oklahoma Magazine (the exact wedding date hasn't been determined, so don't look for it in the next issue, but perhaps in 2011!).

The two couples were surprised and tickled to win: Myrla is now sporting an 18kt white gold and diamond necklace by Charriol and Hallie is wearing an infinity symbol pendant with two, round diamonds totaling 1.00cts. Congratulations to you both, and have fun at your photography session with Eric Gfeller.

If you know of anyone with a great proposal story, encourage them to enter next year's contest, beginning in January of 2011!

Check it Out on Martha Stewart Weddings!

In 2008, we were priveledged to be a part of Carter Samis' wedding when her mother, Karen, commissioned us to make a custom necklace as a wedding gift for her daughter. The necklace, and a mention of Naifeh Fine Jewelry, is featured online at http://www.marthastewartweddings.com/photogallery/carter-and-fred.
Check out all of the details of this fabulous wedding and don't miss the picture of the necklace (a branch-like "C" with a small bird perched on it), hanging from the bride's boquet, about halfway through the photo gallery. Congratulations to both families and to our own designer,Jennifer Duell, who helped Karen and her husband, Mike, with this beautiful project!

Have you heard the news? I just saw it on Yahoo! Colt McCoy, that cute blonde quarterback (except when he's playing against OU & OSU!) for Texas has popped the question and she said "Yes!" For all of you football players out there wondering how to pop the question, here's a proposal idea...and if you've already proposed, you need to enter my Perfect Proposal Contest!

Perfect Proposal Contest

Happy New Year! I've been away for awhile, mostly playing Santa Claus (or is that Missus Claus?!). I do appreciate everyone who allowed me and my staff to assist with their gift giving this holiday season. I especially want to thank all of you who found us online. One of our new clients is from the Los Angeles area; he found a picture his wife had printed off my website of some earrings I designed and had me make a pair for her. Very cool. Thank you!

Now it's time for our 4th annual Perfect Proposal Contest! I hope that all of you who are legal residents of Oklahoma will consider entering. It doesn't matter if you're married or engaged, we have a prize package for both! Every year we receive many inventive, heart warming, tear jerking, and good ole' fashioned engagement stories, making it very difficult to narrow the field to just 5 finalists in each catagory. In the coming weeks, I may just share some of my past favorites. This may give some of you men some ideas about how to propose! Lord knows my husband, Brad, wasn't that creative! He was so nervous about the whole proposal thing that he spelled my name wrong on the envelope containing a poem he wrote which was also a proposal! Thank goodness I'm "Valerie" and not "Valiere!" Oh, well, not to worry...I said "yes" anyway!

Perfect Pearls, Perfect Value!

This cultured pearl necklace by Mastoloni in 14kt yellow or white gold is only $235.00 and in stock for the holidays! The freshwater pearl earrings are a perfect compliment from my private lable collection at $399.00! Hurry while supplies last!

Perfect Stocking Stuffers!

What do you get your daughter or granddaughter this Christmas? I like these stainless steel and diamond rings with 18kt yellow gold from the Charriol Classiques collection! Due to the unique materials and construction they fit almost everyone and don't need sizing. Priced between $395.00 and $495.00 they will be an instant hit in a stocking or under the tree. We have earrings, necklaces, and bracelets in stock as well!
