Proposed to in Venice, Italy.


Recommended Posts

Dustin is in the military and was on tour in Afghanistan last year. It was very hard for me while he was gone, to say the least. In May 2007, we met up in Europe for 4 wonderful weeks during his leave from tour. We went on a tour of Europe and it was the most amazing trip ever!! We went through most of Western Europe. He knew though that I was looking most forward to Venice and it was one of the last cities we were going to see together.

 

It was very dissapointing because the day we were in Venice, it flooded! The city was pretty much shut down because of all the heavy rain! That didn't stop us though, we bought these cheap green ponchos and decided to wander the city. It was basically a ghost town!

 

We were down by the canals and the sun was beggining to set. It was bitter sweet for me, because it was a such a beautiful city and we were having such an amazing time; however, it was one of our last days together before he had to go back to Afghanistan. It was so beautiful to seeing the rain hit the water while the sun was setting, it was like a dream! It was like we were the only ones in the whole city. I remember asking Dustin if he thought this could get any better...and at that moment he got down on one knee he told me that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me!!

 

I was in shock and just began to cry...and I couldn't stop. It was the most amazing moment and feeling in my life! cheer2.gif

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
