Just Engaged and Proposals

my amazing proposal story!

My fiance and I grew up together, smae tball teams same soccer teams, different schools though.  We began dating our junior year of highschool and have known we were each other's "the one" from day one.  Well after 5 long years, at my college graduation party he proposed, here's how it went...

My parents threw me a huge party May 20, 2012 at a restaurant, with all of my extended family there as well as my fiance's parents, grandmother, and his one aunt and uncle and cousins that he is closest to.  My parents told me that the party was my gift and knowing how much it cost I was totally fine with that.  Well after I finished eating my dad got up in front of everyone and said that he and my mom had a special gift for me and that it was too big to wrap so my fiance and brother went outside to get it, but since it wasnt wrapped I had to be blindfolded. Still had no idea what was to come.  Next thing I know i hear my brother say "man this is heavy" so I had no clue still I thought it was for my car or something. My dad said to take the blindfold off and their stood my fiance in a tuxedo getting down on one knee in front of everyone! it was so cue and so romantic.  Once i stopped screaming and the shock wore off i heard the Bruno Mars song "hey baby i think i wanna marry yuou" playing in the background..he had it all planned for his brother to turn it on! His parents bought champagne for everyone and all the guests got it on camera and his brother was even able to get it on the camcorder..how awesome is that?! i literally was in such shock i had to sit down i had no idea it was coming.

  • My fiance and I attended th same highschool but never knew eachother, he was six years older. We met at the Ashland Street dance in 2012.

    Proposal
    We had a big weekend ahead of us, my little sister was graduating college.  He just got a new job at the command post in Lincoln so his hours were different.  He had been working all day and told me he couldn't make it.  We were supposed to go on a date that night ( we han't for a while because we are trying to save for a house).  He texts me during the ceremony telling me to meet him in Ashland for dinner. Ashland?! Was not very excted, I thought he would come to Lincoln and we would have more options.. So I argued a bit and he told me to be there at 8:30.  DInner was nice, and we know the owners and they paid for our meal.. That was nice. THen I told him we should stop at the bar because its kareoke night, he seemed frustrated. He said no, lets got drop off a car first.  We get out of the cars, and he says the front door is locked. So we went around. 

    He had set up lights around the house, down to the beach.  On the beach he had lights set up and made a lovely path.  He had laid flower petals down the path, and he told me to walk down. He bought pebble rock and wrote "will you marry me?".  As i was walking down, he hit record and taped all of it.  He also had the song "to make you feel my love" by Adelle playing.  Then 2 dozen roses, a bottle of wine, and a shirt that says "USAF Wife".  It was perfect.  He asked my sister if it was ok if he proposed on her big graduatio day.  She was fine with it!

    I keep trying to put the picture on, but it wont save!
