Hello all...
well I think the time is finally here. I am planning to pop the question this weekend. My GF and I are going up to monterey, CA for the weekend so I think it''s the perfect time. Starting to get nervous.
So I am going to keep it simple/private. My original plan was to go on a hike along the ocean, right before sunset and ask here then. But after talking to my mom she thought I should do it earlier in the day. That way we would be able to enjoy more of the weekend in the post proposal ''glow''. Also I wouldn''t be tied up in knots all day worrying about the proposal. So now I''m thinking of asking her in the morning. We are going to be at a nice hotel.. so we could go for a quiet walk in the morning and do it then. Or... we get breakfast brought to the room (she likes room service) and I have them bring an extra plate with a cover. I put the ring box inside a large plastic easter egg, and put it on the plate (with easter grass and everything). After breakfast I tell her to take a look under the cover and look... the easter bunny brought a gift. hmmm... what could it be. Or I could do a mini easter egg hunt... and have the ring in the final big egg in an easter basket at the end of the hunt.
If I propose in the morning in the hotel room is that romantic enough? Is the easter egg thing too cheesy? She is a very laid back girl so I''m sure she will love it.. however I do it. But I do want it to be a moment that she will remember with fond memories.
any comments?
thanks.
