Today Show's Bridal Bling
July 8, 2008
The Today Show proved that when it comes to the bride - it's all about the bling. Wedding jewelry, diamond rings and million dollar jewels were the name of the game at the Today Show wedding of the year.
The jewels chosen for the Today Show's annual "Race to the Alter" wedding were far more extravagant than your average diamond engagement ring and wedding band. On the day itself, the beautiful bride, LaDonna Bradford sparkled in $1 million dollars worth of platinum and diamond jewelry by Kwiat when she wed Darnell Suggs.
LaDonna
choose a necklace featuring a whopping 50 carats (hey - why not), a 20 carat
diamond bracelet, and a pair of classic platinum and 10-carat stud earrings.
That's a total of 80 carats of diamonds - not including the rings themselves. To
symbolize their official commitment, the couple also exchanged platinum wedding
bands by Kwiat. In all, the blinging bride wore $1 million dollars of Kwiat
diamonds.
The platinum rings, from Kwiat's new bridal collection "Fidelity," feature two individual bands of pure Platinum running parallel to each other to symbolize the couple's intersecting love.
