I know a lot of people are extremely skeptical on stuff like this, so I said that I was going to follow through and post what happens! Earlier this year, my MOH took me to a bridal show to see if I could find some vendors to use for my wedding. Although I didn’t pick any of the vendors, I did end up winning some prizes.
I got calls from a number I didn’t recognize, but she left a voicemail saying that I won a gift card for 2 wedding bands, trip for 2 to the Dominican Republic, Mexico or Bahamas..it’s a 2 night stay to an all inclusive Wyndham Resorts, OR we get a USA giveaway for 2 anywhere in the US. All we had to do was go to a cooking demonstration to get the prizes.
My FH and I both were also skeptical at first, but the presentation was only 15 minutes from our house so we were like why not. We went in knowing we didn’t have to buy anything, and that was perfectly okay. The guy wanted us to buy the cookware, but he also wasn’t pressuring us whatsoever. We were the only ones who showed up so it was more of like a Conversation than anything. Since we were the only ones who showed up and we couldn’t decide on what trip we wanted, he ended up giving everything! (Still can’t believe that)
I am making this post because I wanted to give a little insight on my experience since We used the certificate for our wedding bands. The bands were from JVL Jewelry. They have decent bands, but not a large selection of choices. There were only Tungsten and Titanium bands...which works for my FH, but I was just a little upset that there would be no rings to match my engagement ring...but I can’t be too mad since they were free lol.
All bands are around $398 I think, so the certificate was good for any two bands we wanted, regardless of price. If we wanted to get them engraved, we could have for $20 (which I thought was amazing)..but we ended up ordering the rings without it. All we had to pay was shipping which was $25 per ring. The rings said the estimated delivery time was 3 weeks, but we got them within one week.
I expected there to be something wrong with the rings when they came in, but they honestly look amazing. I thought it was a scam all the way up until we got the rings, but I’m really glad we decided to give it a chance. It was one of the easiest things I’ve ever ordered. I plan on wearing mine if I’m working out or something like that and my FH is BEYOND happy with his. It fits perfectly on his finger (his ring size is 13/13.5) and almost looks better than the ring I got him 😂.
I’m not saying that every experience would be as easy as ours was, but I think if you win a prize that you’re skeptical about, research the hell out of it first before you decline. It’s sketchy that it seems like everyone wins these prizes, but if they actually follow through, then I’m okay with that. Like I said earlier, we also won the trips for our honeymoon. We are using that for our honeymoon so I will leave a review on that too once we use it...but so far, this gifts have been a blessing and have saved us quite a bit of money overall.
Let me know if y’all have questions!
