The exchange of wedding rings is a centuries-old tradition, and most wedding ring makers have remained stuck in the past, utilizing environmentally-unfriendly materials, and leaving a whole cohort of modern-couple ‘typographies’ out of their branding scope. But not Holden!

Holden is a custom wedding ring company built on the principles of sustainability, transparency, and inclusivity.

In today’s episode, host Cory Ames is joined by Holden’s cofounder, Andrew Lim, and its content marketing lead and first full-time employee, Carrie Adams. Tuning in to this conversation, you’ll hear the ins and outs of Holden's origin story, how the company differentiates itself in an all-around positive way, and the exciting plans they have for the future.

Cory's wedding band is from Holden, so from personal experience, he can vouch for the way they put into practice everything that they stand for!
