He was a football quarter back, and she was a beauty pageant star.  After dating country singer Carrie Underwood, and his much publicized relationship with pop star Jessica Simpson, NFL Dallas Cowboy quarterback Tony Romo proposed to the lower key Candice Crawford.  Dating all fun loving – all American blondes, Tony definitely knew his type, but felt an even greater connection with Candice.

Candice majored in both journalism and business at the University of Missouri.  During her time there, she competed regularly eventually winning the Missouri Miss USA pageant and placing top ten in the Miss USA pageant.  While in Columbia, Missouri, Candice also worked with the local NBC affiliate KOMU-TV as a reporter, as well as the the CBS afilliate KTVT which often covered the Dallas Cowboys.  Tony reported that he fell for the beauty pageant star and future anchor by saying, “She’s just down to earth and has a good heart. She gets along with anybody and anytime you meet her you can’t help but just enjoy being in her company.”

After the proposal, the couple both took the time to plan the wedding of their dreams, and hired celebrity wedding planner Todd Fiscus to do the job.  When asked how Candice felt about the wedding and her dress she said, “It’s one of those things you look forward to when you were five. I haven’t even had the big meeting with designers to show me all the stuff so they’re kind of concocting something in their heads and I’m sure they’re going to make it way beyond anything I could think of.”

The big day took place in Dallas, Texas on May 28^th,  and Tony and Candice’s wedding proved to be being bigger both of them have every dreamed of and more as their wedding video trailer that leaked on the internet showed.  Complete with high-quality editing, a wedding cake almost as tall as the ceiling, a gorgeous custom-made wedding dress, and a glamorous reception, the wedding appears to be nothing short of a fairytale. We were also swooned when Tony Romo romantically said within his vows to Candice,“”I always dreamed of who my wife would be, what she would look like. What her personality would be. Standing with you at this moment. I’ve never more sure about anything in my life.” And this is only the movie trailer – goes to show that everything is bigger in Texas!

Within the wedding movie trailer is a shot of Candice Crawford’s stunning engagement ring. The celebrity ring is a dazzling, traditional princess cut diamond alongside smaller glittering diamond within the band.   You can get Candice’s fairytale wedding look even if you don’t have a NFL fiancé with Clarise’s Engagement Ring.

As prominent glamorous Hollywood celebs have shown, emerald stands against the test of time.  Actress Elizabeth Taylor, who was known for her large diamond collection, was also well known for her emerald jewelry.

Ever wonder why your favorite ring or necklace eventually darkens or rusts?  Whether a product is pure silver or brass based, tarnishing inevitably happens unless you take the simple steps to prevent it.  Here at Emitations, we not only want you to have the jewelry of your dreams for an affordable price, we want you to enjoy it to the fullest event after event and day after day.

This is why each order comes with an exclusive faux velvet black pouch that was made to protect your jewelry from rusting or darkening.  Stylish, cute, and fun, these pouches shield airborne chemicals such as sulfur that cause your jewelry to tarnish.  By keeping your favorite bling in this acid-free enclosed pouch, your jewelry will continue to dazzle for days to come.

Remember, it is much easier to prevent tarnish then it is to remove it.  After each time you wear your favorite imitation jewelry pieces, put it back into your Emitations pouch so it can be fresh for the next time you wear it – again and again and again.

The women of ABC’s daytime talk show, ‘The View‘, broadcasted ‘A Royal Wedding Special’ episode devoted to the highly anticipated wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William.  Barbara Walters herself reported on the spectacular event live from London, while the rest of the ladies donned their own royal toppers in NYC for the fancy event.  Even though movie star Goldie Hawn filled in for Babs during the special, the biggest guest star of all was the Emitations Inspired by Kate Middleton ring.

The beautiful sterling silver faux sapphire ring was one of the many princess inspired looks presented by Zanna Roberts Rossi, Senior Fashion Editor at Marie Claire Magazine.  Featuring some of Kate’s most famous and glamorous looks, the gals were inspired to have a royal wedding runway show of their own.  The hosts surprised the audience, and sent each woman home with her very own Inspired Kate Middleton engagement ring, courtesy of Emitations.

“Sales on Emitations.com initially spiked 400% following the announcement (of the royal engagement), and recently spiked to the highest levels since Christmas. About a 400% increase since two weeks ago, (Emitations.com owner) Mai expects this to continue for another few weeks, although perhaps not at the same rate,” says MediaPost.com.
