On Valentine''s Day, my then boyfriend took me out for dinner at a surprise location. It turned out to be downtown by the harbor. He parked at the one end near a really casual place, and I was like, "I know this isn''t where we are going!" because he had said to dress up. We walked along near the water and went up really far, passing all of the restaurants. I had worn cute shoes that looked good with the outfit, but, as you know, cute shoes are horrible for walking in. My feet are still in pain! I kept asking "Is it this reataurant?" "Is it that restaurant?" Nope.

He said we had some time before our reservation, so then we were just hanging out for a few minutes by the water (8pm at night, and the weather was great, water looked gorgeous reflecting all of the lights on buildings around). Then he got down on one knee, did his thing, I said yes of course, and we went to dinner. Dinner was at the restaurant at the top of a hotel that overlooked the water. We LOVE that place, so it was perfect for our meal!! And that''s about it

I'm still at work (LONG days), so these next pics are the best I've got. I wish I could have condensed them into a collage. Oh well, here you go:

Edited to add: The setting is Simon G. My FI picked the center stone on his own at a local jeweler and did an amazing job!!! It sparkles like mad

Spectacular! I love vintagey rings & your milligraining looks so precise. The sapphires are just the cherry (blueberry??) on top!

Congrats!!
