Congratulations!
Beautiful pics, too!
My engagement ring (which I don't wear often) is white gold but my wedding band which I always wear is pink gold. The two together look quite unusual and, I think, beautiful. Great choice!
Any dress above mid-calf behaves very nicely on a bike, especially if the bike has a chain guard.

Congrats Gnat!!
So romantic and lovely - a proposal while cycling in Europe.
I am inspired by your love of pink, by the way. When I started cycling last year I was all - "Oh, I can't go for girly girl pretty cycling clothes and bikes, especially pink, that's so embarrassing." Even though I really am a girly girl!
Well, I now own a pink jersey and I just bought my first road bike in pink! It's so pretty and I love it and am very proud of it!
I hope you find a lovely pink something to wear for your wedding
Linda.

Wow! That is awesome! I *would love* it if I were proposed to on a bike.
My ex-husband proposed to me when I had a severe headache for 2 months. I was laying in the dark, in the bedroom, and he came in with a roll of electrical tape. I think he proposed only because he was worried I would die. Ehn. I divorced him for a cyclist
And as a present to myself for the divorce paper signing was my Specialized Ruby! HAH!

Wow, it looks like you're having a wonderful time on your sabbatical. And to be proposed to like that is very sweet. Congratulations to you and your man!

Congratulations Gnat! Like the ring, a more realistic solitare setting for the sports minded set. I can't believe you wore it rock climbing.
There's always the bride jersey
Or were you wanting something that looked more like a real bridal gown?

Thanks everyone!!
Beth, I think The Man has nixed the idea of the tux/gown jerseys in favor of having a Bespoke Tailor deal with outfits (he's currently drooling over the Rapha tailored wool jacket... maybe I should talk to Sheila Moon...)
