Congrats to George and Alyssa on their engagement!
George and Alyssa met in 2016 after being introduced by a mutual friend. They both moved to Atlanta, GA without knowing anyone to follow their careers. What started off as a very close friendship (he and she did everything together) turned into the greatest love they've ever known! Pro relationship tip -- marry your best friend!
about the engagement
George and Alyssa were on vacation in New Jersey with his whole family. He brought Alyssa to a secluded beach and told her they were meeting his cousins at a beach bar. Little did she know - the bar did not exist - and his cousin and his brother were hiding out in sand dunes like paparazzi ready for the big moment. George got down on one knee and Alyssa collapsed in the sand with him! They drank champagne on the beach and came home to a surprise engagement party where he even had her dad drive down from Connecticut to attend! It was like one surprise after another, and that whole day still feels surreal.
looking toward the future
For now, George and Alyssa are busy planning their wedding! They've locked down their date and are so excited. They feel surrounded by so much love and support - they don't think either of them have stopped smiling since the proposal.
Why Henne?
George felt like he was really taken care of at Henne Jewelers. He said other jewelers he went to made him feel like he was shopping for a used car. He appreciated the friendly staff, the collective experience and professionalism, and he knew he was going to be taken care of at Henne. He told Alyssa later how he basically bought this ring all via FaceTime! He completely trusted Henne throughout, working with Nina. Henne is just amazing and they know they'll be Henne customers for life!
George ultimately chose for Alyssa a beautiful three-stone engagement ring in 18K yellow gold, with three emerald-cut diamonds.
