I'm so excited.. just had to share!
 

Tonight my future son-in-law is going to propose to my daughter! We've been working on the ring for the last couple of months. He bought an over 1 carat princess cut center stone, then his parents contributed just over a third of a carat side stone, then we contributed a matching side stone. Didn't know how difficult it was to match diamonds, but we finally found a perfect match! He took the concept of Today, Yesterday and Tomorrow and added the concept of the joining of families. It is a beautiful ring! I hope she likes it. She only wears a size 4 and is really tiny so this is quite a bit of bling for her little finger.

Anyway, he just stopped by and told me how the night was going to go. He has a friend that manages a restaurant so he has a whole room booked which will be filled with lighted candles. He has written a poem telling her how special she is which he will read while waiting for dessert. The waiter will then bring out a present to open. The present is a fancy rectangle pillow and when she opens it and asks what it's for. He is going to reply, It's for me and then he will put it on the floor for a kneeling pillow and propose on his knees! So I guess romance and chivalry are still alive and well. He actually asked us for her hand in marriage. She has absolutely no idea whatsoever, I'm almost positive she will say yes, but will want to wait until after her college graduation (two more semesters).

After dinner he has a "reception" planned with all of their friends and family. This has been so hard keeping it a secret since we tell each other everything so I can't wait until it's time for the reception!

What a sweet guy !! She is a lucky bride to be !!

Aw you must be soo excited! Can't wait to hear how it goes!

OMG...what a story!

I knew I liked you...(helping out with the english/spanish ;) ) and now you just ended my workday from hell with the BEST engagment story I have ever heard of!

Oh boy, I can't wait hear the ending...and maybe see some pictures???

Wow that's awesome! You must be so thrilled and excited! CONGRATS!!! :D :D

That's great!!! He sounds like a real special guy! I hope she says yes!!

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW


Why can't I find someone like that? (for that matter, why can't I find someone at all?)

That is sooo sweet!! It's obvious that he put a lot of thought into this...And what a great idea about joining the families with the ring. Just beautiful!!

Sounds to me like your daughter is not the only winner in this deal. If you and your future son-in-law are that close, that is absolutely awesome. Be sure to post some pics of the party so we can enjoy it too!

That gave me the chills. What a guy!!! I hope we get to see pictures, the ring sounds beautiful . Congrats!

I wonder how it went :confused:

Oh how sweet. :heart to

That's a great story! I don't see a girl in her right mind saying no to that!

Now if only my bf would do something like that or even any of that I'd be on happy lady too!
