Whoa, BREATHTAKING! You are one lucky lady, congratulations! :)
GORGEOUS!!! wow that is one of the prettiest rings i have seen in a long time!
Thanks guys!
The story:
We planned a roadtrip to visit friends and family in kingston and ottawa (canada) this past weekend, and i thought this roadtrip was all my idea. little did i know, that three months ago, FI told my sister that he wanted us to take a roadtrip to ottawa so that he could propose. apparently, he kept dropping hints about wanting to visit his brother, and i took the bait!
but of course, nothing goes smoothly. he actually forgot the ring!!!when he messaged his friend frantically saying that he forgot it, his friend offered to bring it to him, but FI declined saying it was too far. his friend then offered to drive it halfway, and FI accepted. so in the middle of the night, he drove out and picked it up from his friend. this was while i was hanging out with my sister; he had told me he was catching up with an old friend.
We went ice skating on the rideau canal on saturday, and that's where he proposed! it's actually more embarrassing than i thought it would be to have a (very) public proposal.
when i realized what he was doing, i ran away. well, skated. to the side of the canal under the bridge. out of plain view of most of the other skaters. he was all "where are you going?!" when he caught up to me.
i was shell-shocked, i was not expecting a proposal that day at all. he tried to get down on one knee, but because he had skates on, this wasn't really possible. he got down on two knees, haha. that's when he proposed, and said something like how he'd known for a very long time that he was going to marry me. tears ensued (FI claims he just had something in his eye)
Girl, I LOVE that ring! I love that you have a fun profile to look at as well. Mine is intricate like yours as well. And look at that rock, how big is it? It looks big AND great all at the same time :)
@hypercrazy38: Wow your ring is stunning! Congratualtions, I love that he proposed on the canal!! Its so romantic at night. I miss Ottawa :(
@hypercrazy38: Awwww that is the sweetest proposal! It's hilarious that you ran/skated away, that's too funny!!! What a great story!
Wow! What a stunner! What carat or mm is it, if you don't mind me asking? Looks very large, but your fingers are also very dainty. Your man has great taste! So congrats on that, amungst other things! I usually don't like 3 stone rings, but your is so pretty that I think the 3 stone aspect makes it even better!
WOW. That is seriously the most beautiful ring I've seen on this site to date.
Awwwww....yay for proposals...and YAY for GORGEOUS engagement rings! The center stone is amazing!!! Be sure to get that puppy insured ASAP!!!
