The ring will be done tomorrow or Wednesday. The save the dates are addressed and stamped, sitting on my table. The wedding website is finished. I know he's not going to wait more than a day or two to propose (we've actually talked about this).

I'm thinking the next 48 hours are going to be loooooong.
 
That's so exciting!!!!!! Try to relax and enjoy these next 48 hours because you'll always remember this time. I'll be eagerly awaiting your engagement post! :appl:
 
How exciting! I too, will be looking forward to your post. :D
 
OMG how exciting to know that the proposal is coming in next 48 hours!

Congrats and look fwd to the story and pics!!! :appl:
 
Thanks, everyone. My BF is sort of disappointed that there's no way to surprise me, but I told him all that matters is that we will be engaged. Oh, and that I'll have my ring :)

I will be sure to post as soon as I have news.
 
so excited for you!!
 
Congrats!!! Enjoy the next few days and keep us posted!! :appl: :appl:
 
Congrats! That's sooo exciting :) It's hard not to be anxious for it to happen when you know it's just around the corner! Make sure we get pics :)
 
This is SUPER exciting! How did the talk with your (his?) parents go a week or so ago about wedding funding? Well I hope! Early congrats! Can't wait to see pictures, maybe as early as this weekend!!!!!

Thanks for asking! It went really well. My parents offered to pay for at least the reception and my dresses, so yay! We are all really excited. I will definitely post pics after it happens. I don't think it has hit me that it's all happening so soon.
 
I'm excitedly awaiting news! Can't wait to see the ring and hear about your proposal. Surprise or not, it's exciting! I know my boyfriend is upset about the lack of surprise for us, too, but I keep telling him this is something we're doing together. It's not about him putting together some be-all-end-all surprise proposal with elephants and a jazz quartet and sweeping me off my feet with things that I've never seen before in our relationship and will never see again. It's about us, and our life together. He can propose while I'm brushing my teeth, and I'll be thrilled because I want to brush my teeth with him every morning. But it's nice that your boyfriend is concerned about making it special, anyway. I am sure it will be, no matter the circumstances.

We were catching up on the DVR last night and watched The Office, the Valentine's Day episode. Gabe creates a treasure hunt for Erin to find her gift. I told him something like that would be perfect, and we wouldn't even have to leave my house. Simple, romantic, and fun.

He agreed it would be a good idea, but I'm not sure what he'll end up doing. The treasure hunt would be great because it would add some element of surprise and suspense. I guess I'll find out soon enough!
 
Ahhhh!! I'm so excited for you!! Even without it being a complete surprise, I think the proposal will still be surprising. I mean, you have no idea when exactly or how he is going to do it, just that it will be very very soon!

Can't wait to hear about it!!
 
Congrats! I can't wait to read your post in a couple of days and see your bling.
