Bride's Point of View
My proposal was definitely one that I will never forget and I don't think he will either! He didn't even know that he was going to propose to me that day!
I had just gotten off of the phone with my doctor and had gotten somewhat of bad news, needing a few more tests and such. I was with my boyfriend, Dave, and immediately turned to him to tell him the news as tears began to form in my eyes. Dave comforted me and, of course, told me that everything was going to be okay. I finally get rid of my tears and he tells me to close my eyes he has a surprise for me! I was like no way, not closing them you have to be kidding me right?? He's like just close them and don't peek!! So, I reluctantly shut my eyes and put my hands over my eyes, I peeked a few times but couldn't see anything going on! He was too far over in his room. A minute or so later he's back in front of me and tells me how we've known each other 5 years and these past 6 months have been the most amazing months of his life and he never wants to loose me. Next thing I know I open my eyes, he's on one knee, and has a blue box in his hand! I almost died! Just talking about it now I'm getting all choked up!! I was like are you kidding me?! Right now you're doing this?! haha. Then he says the.. will you marry me? And I of course answered yes! Tears, hugs, and kisses all around after he placed the ring on my finger! And a few minutes later, he's like ummm are you even going to look at the ring?! I totally forgot to look at it! I didn't care what it looked like! I finally had the man of my dreams fooorever!!!

PS. The stupid nurse who called me actually told me the results in the worst way possible. & all is clear! No worries, so I told him he proposed for nothing! ha. He asked for the ring back but I told him no way, unless he wanted to repropose in Disney. ;D
Groom's Point of View
Well, after trying to come up with ideas of how to propose (since I only get one shot), I figured, since we were planning on going to Disney World, and seeing Mickey's Christmas Spectacular, that I would propose during the fireworks in front of the castle. But then I got thinking...How do I get through security, and onto the plane with the ring without her seeing it? And even if I did get it on the plane, I would be too worried about not loosing it that she may suspect something when I keep checking my pockets! So, put it in my bag right? NO! Then I would be worried the entire time if it's safe. So that left me still thinking and I still hadn't come up with anything...Jen was having a bad (horrible) day and it got even worse when she received a phone call from her doctor telling her she possibly had the "C" word... she broke down and more tears started streaming from her eyes than already were. I grabbed her and hugged her tight, trying to comfort her, and that's when my crazy brain told me "now is as good a time as any!" So I asked her to close her eyes and I went to grab the ring. With her eyes closed (I think) and hands over her eyes I gave a little speech and got down on one knee and told her to open her eyes, when I asked, "Will you marry me?"
Needless to say, she said, "Yes," and the rest is history! <3

This is so sweet! I love hearing the groom's point of view too!
ReplyDeleteYes, it's definitely something that is needed. It's so fun to just hear what was going through their heads!
