- Wedding: December 2014
So my current fiance came on vacation with me and my family on the coast of MI last July. We had talked about getting engaged before but I didn’t see us getting engaged until a few months later. At the town we stayed in there’s a lighthouse about 1/4 mile off the coast of Lake Michigan. All day he had talked about wanting to go to the lighthouse at sunset and I thought he just wanted to go to have some ‘us’ time. Along the walk way to the lighthouse are rocks to help the waves not crash onto the main walk way. So as we talked towards the lighthouse he walked me to a rock for us to sit on and stare at the sunset. After a minute or two of looking at the sunset and some “I love you’s”, he pulled some pieces of paper out of hsi pocket. On each piece of paper there was a question about us. Like when we had our first date, when he first told me he loved me, and other relationship milestones. When he pulled out the last piece of paper the question was “What was the day I proposed to you?” Then he got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him while the sunset. And of course I said yes! Now we have a December wedding planned for 2014!
