Engagement Story

The night before our engagement I was getting ready to go to bed.  Garri came up and asked me if he would look good if he shaved his mustache.  I answered, “you are always handsome to me.” (It was little off but I did not notice!)

The next day (on our four years of dating) I went to work looking forward to dinner with Garri at our favorite restaurant that night.  When Garri arrived to pick me up for dinner he was a little preoccupied with getting to our restaurant before it gets dark.  We pulled up to the restaurant and he went out in the back of car. I managed to get myself together for our dinner.  Garri said, “let’s take some pictures before we eat” which seemed a little odd (I realized after we got engaged).  I always care about taking pictures instead of him.  I agreed and went to our favorite area by the river.  He was taking pictures of us with his iPhone.  Then it was getting darker, I suggested to use my iPhone to capture some better pictures.  Two joggers went by us and I said, “I am hungry”.  Garri managed to have me to wait little longer.  He said, “you know how much we have been going through since the day we started dating and I really love you so much” so for a split second I thought, “COULD THIS BE HAPPENING?” but 100% of me thought he was just playing  around.

Then, he kept on going and told me how he felt about me and love for each other.  I shared mine with him.  When Garri got down on his knee and asked me to marry him! I thought, “Oh my gosh!” and “Serious?!” “YES, I will marry you!”

The ring was on my finger and we then had a couple of minutes of laughing and hugging! Garri then led me to the restaurant and toasted to our future together! And now, WE’RE GETTING MARRIED!
