It had been about a month since we discovered I was pg and for a few weeks had been toying with the idea of getting married. Initially we had thought no as we didn't think we could scrape together the cash and because of the whole shotgun thing but that night we were sitting on the couch at my folks after everyone else had gone to bed and had a long chat about it. Around 2 am we eventually came to the conclusion it would be the perfect way to become a proper family...so why not do it sooner rather than later.
DH got down on one knee and proposed there and then with a ring he'd given me 3 years previously for our first Christmas together (I'd taken it off and put it on the coffee table as my fingers were a little swollen, he'd spotted it and thought why not!). I hugged him and said "of course!" He replaced it a few months later with a white gold and diamond one
DH proposed in Santorini, Greece. We were backpacking around the world and we spent a week in Santorini. We lashed out to stay one night in a cave house on the cliffs at Oia (where all the awesome sunset shots from Greece are taken ). We spent the afternoon chatting and drinking, it was a perfect day in a postcard location. We watched the amazing sunset over the Med on our rooftop terrace and DH got down on bended knee, told me I meant the world to him and how he didn't want to live without me and then asked me to marry him. Very romantic!!
On a beach on Koh Lanta in Thailand. We were having ****tails and watching the sun set over the water. He kept taking really depp breaths and not saying anything, so I knew it was coming. He didn't even get to finish the question before I said yes - like a million times! It was Christmas Eve, and we got married on a beach the following year.
DH was working away and had taken me into the shops before he went and chosen a ring to layby. he came home a few weeks later and was to meet my grandarents the next day for the first time. he told me he wanted to ask me a question but couldn't cos he didn't have what he needed (and i was tired so way too vague) - i told him he couldn't do that, he had to ask me now (oops!), so he asked me if i'd like to introduce him to my nan as my fiance instead of my boyfriend! was very sweet - we were laying in bed cuddling after not seeing each other for four weeks - gorgeous!
DH gave me a bunch of flowers. Now he NEVER buys flowers so I was suss to start with. Asked what he had done/is about to do wrong. LOL
I kindly said thanks and put them in a vase and threw out the paper. When he saw me do it his response was ":well aren't you going to read the card?" Umm...no....there wasn't a card....
So back through the bin i go looking for the card in which there was a gorgeous ring!!!
Of course my answer was YES YES YES!!!
He didnt really ..... DD was sort of a surprise baby... so he goes I guess we should get married. I told him he had to propose to me but our wedding day 3 months later came before he did. I picked out the rings, but he went and bought them and picked them up, they were special order for size so they were only ready a fortnight before the weeding. He gave them to me while i was laying in bed.
