Golf Your Way To A Free Wedding

Are you a golfer who just happens to be getting married? A new contest lets you put your skills to the test. The JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa in San Antonio, Texas has partnered with The Knot to create a wedding giveaway. The Perfect Match $150,000 Wedding Contest offers brides and grooms a chance to win an all-inclusive destination wedding and honeymoon that includes 200 of their closest friends and family.

From now until January 31, 2010, couples can enter at TheKnot.com/perfectmatch. Submit a brief description as to why you deserve to win a dream wedding at JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa, along with photos, and take a quick golf quiz. Six couples will be selected as finalists and flown to the resort to test their skills in The Perfect Match Golf Tournament from March 3-5, 2010, at the new PGA TOUR Tournament Players Golf Club (TPC) San Antonio and the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa. Each couple will play as a team in a nine-hole scramble tournament. The couple who wins the tournament returns to the resort for the $150,000 wedding to take place the weekend of May 21-23, 2010. The Knot team of style and design experts will create a one-of-a-kind wedding experience and provide planning. The winning couple will also receive a luxury honeymoon at the JW Marriott Ihilani Resort & Spa on O'ahu in Hawai'i.

Luxist Giveaway: Philosophy Beauty Box

by Annie Scott (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Cosmetics and Fragrance

Philosophy has teamed up with The Knot to create an ultimate bridal beauty box set called tying the Knot (above). The box, worth $100, is a lovely gift for a bride to be -- but we can't think of a woman who wouldn't love to receive this any day.

The set includes:

amazing grace firming body emulsion, bath gel and spray fragrance
purity one-step facial cleanser
hope in a jar moisturizer (Oprah's fave)
micro-delivery peel pads
kiss me clear lip balm, spf 20
kiss me exfoliating lip scrub
eye hope deluxe sample

Who needs a wedding when you have all that fun loot? Brides aren't the only ladies who want to be beautiful. This would even make a nice thank you gift to send to a holiday party hostess or your boyfriend's mother. No need to tell her it was free.
