Hello,
I just got engaged last Thursday. It was a total surprise! We've been talking about marriage but I wasn't expecting a proposal last week. I'm excited.
So now I'm trying to nail down a date. I suggested October 2011, but FI doesn't like that, thinks it's too soon because it's next year, so we're thinking April 2012 (working around Easter, of course). I would be okay with October as we have no big reason to wait. We don't have to do it right away either. Is April 2012 okay? It seems so far away.
