Friday, February 6th, was one of the most amazing days of my life (second to finding out I was pregnant). My boyfriend (Scott) proposed to me in the most romantic way. Every girl imagines their proposal, but my boyfriend blew it out of the water.
As soon as I got home from work on Friday night there was a limo waiting for me. The limo driver handed me an envelope with Scott’s strict instructions, pack bags and get back to the limo in 10 minutes. Let me take you back a little…I was told weeks before we were going to NYC for the weekend so I packed for the city and everything was ready on Thursday night.
When I got my bags and went into the limo there were several Parisian themed items, a CD, and a large envelope. I was told not to open anything until we got to our next destination.
As we pulled up to Chardonnay’s (the restaurant where Scott and I had our first date) things started to fall into place. I had to go into the restaurant and tell them my name. After waiting for a few minutes the waiter brought out a pizza box with other assorted take out boxes (clearly my boyfriend knew this prego would be hungry). Then I had to put in the CD and open the envelope while the music was playing. As Justin Timberlake’s “Not a Bad Thing” played over the sound system (our song), Scott recorded his voice with the direct words from the card I had just opened. Everything he had said brought me to tears and I just knew what was coming next.
I was brought to the next destination, The Five Bridges Inn (where we first met). The limo pulled up the windy, snowy road and then I saw him standing at the front of the Inn waiting for me.
As I walked up the narrow path in the snow to Scott he had placed pictures of us and mason jars with little tea lights. Every little detail was carefully planned out! After the proposal we went back into the limo and headed to NYC, or so I thought. Scott finally let out his big secret (as if the proposal wasn’t enough), he was in fact taking me to Paris!
It was the most romantic weekend of my life and I loved everything about the city and the amazing experience. It has such beautiful architecture, culture, and how could I forget those delicious desserts!
