Engaged!

[light_sabe_r]

Well actually - I knew it was coming. We'd been shopping for a while for rings that would suit us (we went with titanium to match the frame of BF's bike)

I got a gorgeous little ring that fits me perfectly (the biggest hurdle to overcome)

We'd had a marvelous day off in the City on Friday. We went to Yum cha at our favourite chinese resturant, Then went to a gourmet chocolate shop (We got free samples and bought a few too) Had afternoon tea in ANZAC square; Then walked into the city where we stumbled upon a jewellery store that was having a sale!

And there was the ring - And he bought it for me. It is perfect (and was WELL within our price range) We wore the rings as we walked out; Looked at each other - Said "marry me" and burst out laughing. ^_^ Not totally romantic but very us. ^_^

Scarey though. Now I got a wedding to plan.... 0_0

Congrats Saber!
Way to make a decision on the rings too
You can always avoid the wedding plan stress by doing what we did - about a week out from our engagement "do" we decided we didn't want to wait a few months to get married - we'd made the committment already.
So at the engagement party we announced we were getting married the next day...
From first kiss to marriage - 6 weeks
22 years later, here we are...

We just wanted to get on with being married - with being a couple...
Congrats again... when the recipe works, it is so fine

Congratulations, light sabe r! I hope you and he all the best. Here's to the start of something marvelous. <holds up champagne glass>

CONGRATS!!! Ditto do it your way & remember it's only one day. A special day, but still only one. So don't let others talk you into adding lots of extra expense and doing things the "right" way if that's not you.
