familystone,

What an incredible proposal. Written right out of a movie script. Sounds like you all had a wonderful time and the ring looks perfect on her. What did she think of the ring?
 
Familystone -- you''re killin'' me here!

What an incredibly romantic, sweet, thoughtful, and well-planned proposal!!!

Everything looked wonderful and the ring is gorgeous on her pretty little hand! Well-done!

Thanks Mrs Salvo,

she loved the ring but .. . unforunately it is a tad to big so going to have to size it down 1/4 to 1/8th size probably.
 
What an absolutely perfect proposal!!!

Wow- it's beautiful on her!
The family stone looks spectacular in that setting.
You and Leon did a beautiful job.

More photos please

Scintillating...

*Question about the sizing* - Is there tension over the knuckle? Or does it slide easily off?
If there's tension you might want to wait till the warmer weather and see how it fits.
Mine is really loose in the winter, but some tension over the knuckle, and snug in warmer weather - it's amazing how dynamic finger sizes are.
 
Forgot to mention I thought when I brought her to get her nails done on saturday she was going to ge suspicious but she claimed she had no idea. Thought I was just doing it to make her feel better becuse she had been sick.
 
OMG, you even had the forethought to take her to the manicurist?? And did YOU provide all those bridal magazines on the coffee table? Unbelievable! I love how you proposed to her in the hallway of the school....how unexpected and unique! Familystone, you are my kind of man!!

What a WONDERFUL proposal -truly romantic and I''m sure memorable! What gorgeous views from the terrace - and that clear handshot of the ring on her hand - it looks SO AMAZING!!!
 
wow familystone, can we clone you?

sometimes we get the most amazing men on here!! the thought that goes into some of these rings and proposals is astounding, esp when you are married to a loving, darling, manwhoiadore BUT who wouldn't have a clue on where to start doing 1/2 of this stuff nevermind think of extra fine details.

it's days after reading things like this when greg comes home to find me looking at him all disgruntled and he goes what did i do?!??!

hehe poor guy!

Wow, this is too much fun getting to hear these proposal stories! I''ll have to agree with Mara, though, while I have a great husband, he would have never pulled all that off! We also had a teacher proposed to at my school this year on Valentine''s Day! I think that will make a very sweet memory for her!

OMG me too! DH is always all confused and "What''s up with the evil eye?" after I''ve read one of these ultra-sweet and romantic proposal stories!!! And I''m not too big to admit that sometimes, I become REALLY and genuinely irked at him and get all in a mood! LOL.
 
Oh my god, you need to be teaching romance and proposal and THOUGHTFULNESS seminars!!!

SERIOUS Kudos, Mr. familystone!!!! What a wonderful story--OIBLTIBS is such a romantic place, the car, the fondue, the magazines, the school hallway.....everything sounds absolutely dreamy and you RULE!!!
 
Thank you all for your kind comments it all doesn''t even seem real yet.

Scintillating,

Thanks for the info about the sizing, it definately has some tension over the knuckle as she can wave her hand all around and it won''t come close to falling off, but it does spin around the finger most of the time depending on the time of the day. We were goign to wait a week or so before we were going to go back to Leon anyways becuase she didn''t want to give it back until she could show all her friends and family. Maybe now we will wait it out a bit longer and hope for the warmer weather to kick in and see how it fits then.

Thanks Agian,

Dave
