His proposal…
Thursday, August 31st, 2006Background info: Ben and I have been together since July 31, 2001. We’ve been through everything together, including many months of long-distance dating. I moved to Dallas in March 2001. We met on my first day of school (the week after spring break), but he didn’t ask me out until the end of the summer! We went on four dates in two weeks. And, then I moved with my family, during my junior year, to Houston. This lead to seven months of long-distance dating and many Texas roadtrips. Luckily, I moved back to Dallas in March 2002. We both graduated high school in 2003. I attended college in OKC and he started at OSU. I missed him…so I moved to Stillwater for my sophomore year!!
Five years later - September 2, 2006…Ben surprised me with a trip to Fort Lauderdale, Florida! I knew we were flying to Florida, but I had no idea what city or what we would be doing…so on our first night he said he wanted to get dessert for us. He brought two plates, with lids, from the hotel restaurant. His plate had choc. cake with strawberries/whipped cream and mine had “Will you marry me?” written in chocolate. It was too sweet! We haven’t set a date for our wedding, but it will be in 2008!

I loved his proposal! I want to share other wedding ideas and tips on this site!
