I''m engaged: The Perfect Man & The Perfect Ring!!!

[appletini]

How about 7pm on the 27th? I can''t wait to see y''all and remember to bring your sunglasses!

Wish me luck convincing my fiance to attend...he calls this my psycho website even though I know he''s secretly grateful for all the information it has provided. If your FIs are for sure coming, then it will be a lot easier to get him there, but then again since Renee will be there it might be too hard, since he does know her.

We had our engagement dinner with his friends last night...so fun...and of course all the girls loved my ring, and even a few of the guys were impressed.

omg Apple what a beautiful ring!!!! WOW!!! It is so gorgeous and it''s HUGE!!!!! You both are so cute together!! Congrats!!! I can''t wait to hear what you guys finally decide. I think a destination wedding sounds divine. I would love to have mine in Napa but seeing as we live in New York it might be hard to plan it so far away..hmmm, what the heck am I talking about? I''m not engaged...yet!!!!

Congrats on the beautiful proposal and amazing ring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7pm on the 27th sounds great!

I''ll guarantee that Rich will come...so there will definitely be at least one guy there! hehe

 

[gingerBcookie]

FI''s said he''ll come so 2 guys''ll be there!

I discovered a great lighting situation today--the grocery store...OMG sparkle fest! And I had a guy tell me at a party last night that he doesn''t like halos, well that''s his problem, not mine because I LOVE MY RING!!!

We have now decided to honeymoon in Napa instead...since his best friend''s wife will be due in July and we are planning on getting married in May...she will be one of two wives that can''t travel and I really want them to be there. So we are going to something "small" locally at the Richmond House www.therichmondhouse.com. We are going to look at it on Tuesday.

I''m trying on dresses next Friday...so excited!

squeaks: Thank you!

H-town girls: my fiance doesn''t want to go...so it will just be me.

So 7pm on the 27th at Brasil. We''ll be there! I CAN''T WAIT to see this sparkler in person!!! WOOHOOO!!!

Ginger, Rich was glad to see that he won''t be the only guy there, LOL.

Renee, can you make it??? Blake?

 

[appletini]

I can''t wait to see y''all.

I spent most of Christmas eve and Christmas day with my fiance''s family...and they gave me my birthday present since they hadn''t seen me since then...they got me two waterford champagne flutes for our wedding! And one of my Christmas presents from them was a "something blue" it was a blue glass heart that I can put on my bouquet.
