John and Tierney met on a beach during Tierney's first year in college. After spending seven years with each other, John got on his knees holding an engagement ring bought at Friendly Diamonds asking Tierney for her hand in marriage."I couldn't have been happier when he got down and popped the question! I was so thrilled to be marrying my best friend and got to celebrate with family and friends all weekend.", says Tierney with a smile on her face.  Image : John Holloway & Tierney
"I was stunned at how gorgeous my ring was. I love how my ring turned out, and I will never want to stop staring at it! John was skeptical about purchasing an engagement ring online but was impressed with the quality and design. He had an amazing experience with Friendly Diamonds, and they were always quick to respond and accommodating with our purchase.", she reiterates. Located in New York, Friendly Diamonds is a customer-driven online jewelry brand with a steadfast resolve to create a sustainable, transparent and eco-friendly jewelry industry.
