Our Engagement

We're engaged! My boyfriend of two year proposed the day after our 2 year anniversary (Sunday 14th Sept)... The day before he had asked my father for permission at a family birthday party, apparently they had quite a moment :-)

How did it happen? Well I kind of ruined it for him a little. Sunday morning we were lazing about on the couch and Danny asked where the cats were? I assumed outside doing cat stuff.

Shortly after he got up and let Mark Francis back in, so both cats were with me in the lounge.
Getting up I thought Danny was in the bathroom and tried to sneak into the bedroom with an anniversary card I was yet to give him. On entering the bedroom Danny was stood in the door way and questioned 'what are you doing'? Confused I asked what he was doing!

He then turned to face me and asked me to marry him. I said yes. We hugged.

Turned out he had a whole plan with the cats involved... but I had gotten up to soon and walked in on him preparing his proposal! Ha, typical me,

Engagements!

I have had some wonderful news today and would love to share with the world because I am so happy for them but I have been sworn to secrecy!

So instead I decided lets look at the most unusual places/ways to get engaged (be proposed to)!

1. While skydiving, pop the question in the air.

2. Place your words on a billboard in Piccadilly Circus

3. Hire a plane and have it trail a banner with you words as it flies. Make sure you and your Lady are walking so you will see it together.

4. Write it in the sand at the beach.

5. Announce it over the loud speaker at a local football game or ask the pilot on a flight

6. Buy two tickets to a concert and request an announcement be made on your behalf.

7. Have her go on a scavenger hunt with the end being a note of proposal.

8. Write it in alphabet spaghetti

9. Bake a cake with "Will you marry me" on the top. Bring it where she works.

10. Buy a tee shirt and print your message on it with magic markers. Wear it until she reads and responds.

11. Make a video with your proposal to her and play it like it is a movie from Block Buster.

12. Shave "Will you marry me" into your back hair.

In lights?

Ring a ling ling... my wedding band

So obviously you need a wedding band (ring) that will match/complement your engagement ring... so as my ring is a vintage beauty, but also very sparkly I am considering two options!

Vintage 30's details slim platinum band, or to continue with the bling theme and get a half diamond platinum band to match the stones on my engagement ring - similar to below

Isadoras - $700

Menteca - $350

Just a little reminder as to the engagement ring - thought please?
