In this week's edition of Peridot Love Stories, we spoke to the
lovely Nerida and Andrew, an adorable couple from Sydney, Australia. They discovered their Anne Sportun wedding bands at Peridot this past summer, and will be married in March of 2015 in their hometown of Sydney!
"This picture was taken just after we left the Peridot store in Larchmont and walked back to the train station - we were so happy with our choices and very excited!"
Your name: Nerida
His name: Andrew
How did the two of you meet?: Through a mutual friend who introduced me to Andrew via email when I moved to NYC. I contacted Andrew and we met up at
The Slaughtered Lamb in the West Village for a drink early one summer evening. We are actually from the same city in Australia (Sydney). We had traveled very far to meet each other!
Where/how did he propose? Back at
The Slaughtered Lamb.

Bands by Anne Sportun Fine Jewelry[/caption]
What do you love about your ring/band?: Its uniqueness - it was handmade especially for me by Anne Sportun and so, so, pretty with diamonds and gorgeous yellow gold. Andrew's band is equally as unique - handcrafted by Anne Sportun with hammered yellow gold. It reminds us of home - the Australian beach with sea urchins, rock-pools and waves.
What’s one thing you love about him?: Andrew's sense of humor
Use one word to describe what kind of bride you are: Excited!
What made you choose Peridot?: From our first phone call with Dawn we had great advice, service and care in our important decision. This was, by far, the best experience we'd had in our wedding jewellery search in the NYC and greater New York area.
A picture of your wedding. Hasn't happened yet! It's scheduled for 14 March 2015 in Sydney, Australia.
Nerida and Andrew's rings are by Anne Sportun Fine Jewelry. Nerida's ring is an
18 Karat Yellow Gold Ring with a Single Row of 12 Pave Set Diamonds.
