Fairytale Engagement

Our Engagement --

Saturday, April 19, 2008

 

We had a little family vacation down in Disneyland for one week in April.

Our daughter, Kaitlyn & I flew Calgary to LAX. And Jason, of course, drove his sporty little SVO, and picked us up at the airport! This was great, as we could see more of Los Angeles, outside of the Anaheim trolley route!

 

We had such a great time in Disneyland and California Adventure! On our last night at Disney, we were going to watch the fireworks. However, due to "high winds", they were threatening to be cancelled. (Yeah, more like a gentle breeze --- they clearly have never been to Lethbridge, Alberta!) Anyhow, gotta keep Tinkerbell safe! Jason kept cursing that they better have fireworks... first clue something was up!

 

Well, they decided to go ahead! Jason kept disappearing to talk to some security guards. I was told to wait where I was... second clue something was up.

 

A little while later, he said "Come with me, I scored us a better seat!" He led us to a bench right behind the statue of Walt and Mickey, right in front of the castle, a spot that had been roped off from spectators, and was all ours!

We watched most of the fireworks (and they were breathtaking!!) Unfortunately, they cut the show short, due to those dang "high winds" again! But that is when Jason got down on one knee and proposed! I was so in shock, I could barely stammer out "yeah". And then all the crying and kissing started, and the security guard announced it to the crowd--- which started clapping & cheering.

 

And then I found out our little girl knew about it all along! She completely kept it secret from me! I couldn't have asked for a greater fairytale!

That is SUCH a sweet story! I could just picture it all as I read your story. I bet your little girl was just busting at the seams - and that was so sweet of him to include her. I'm sure that made her feel SO special!

 

Congratulations on having such a special engagement and such a sweet FH!

    • 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!
