Sorry Jaylex! I see you just updated it, but you''ll have to do it again.
My fiance proposed to me on Saturday night!
The proposal itself was hilarious. Fiance said that he couldn’t plan too much and make it too detailed, or else he would totally biff it. So he had the ring in his pocket and was waiting for the right moment to strike. We had a lovely dinner at a Morroccan restaurant and then we went down to our favorite wine bar where we are friends with all of the bartenders. It has a lovely atmosphere with dark lighting, wine bottles lining the walls and votive candles everywhere. It is literally a wine cave, the whole bar is underground. It was pretty quiet at the wine bar and we were the only ones on our side of the bar except for a couple of folks sitting at a table behind us. My sister had dropped off a camera the night before with explicit instructions to the bartenders to take pictures if something should happen. Well I’m sitting there, enjoying myself, enjoying being out, drinking a nice glass of wine and looking pretty and I turn to Fiance and he’s got the ring out and he says “I love you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?” And I completely lost it. I could not stop crying and compose myself, I forgot to say yes and he’s just hanging there and finally I squeaked it out and he puts the ring on my finger and I’m still crying. One of the bartenders comes around the corner carrying two glasses of wine for the couple behind us and sees me crying and thinks Fiance and I are fighting so he kind of awkwardly mills around by the corner of the bar, then goes into the back and texts my sister “are you SURE he’s going to propose?” She’s like YES GO TAKE PICTURES. So he comes back out with the wine and kind of sheepishly walks past us, then sees the ring and goes oh, OH OH, OH! and runs to the table and tosses the wine at the couple and then runs into the back for the camera for pictures. So in the pictures you can tell that I’m barely composed and I’ve cried all my makeup off. My sister arrived an hour later (she was at an acquaintance''s wedding that night) and we had a great time! It was perfect.
I''ll link to the Show Me The Ring thread once I make it with pics of the ring!
In the meantime, here is a horrible, awful picture of us looking gooey at each other:
