Long Island Engagement Announcements

Welcome to LIWeddings and congratulations to Shawna and Justo and their respective families: Gordon and Karen; and Wayne and Gabrielle. The happy couple, a Reinsurance Professional and a Human Resource Professional, both from Brooklyn were engaged at the Promenade on April 7, 2007 On Saturday April 7,2007 Justo asked to go out to dinner with me. We were suppose to go to SugarCane Restaurant, however it was packed that night so we ended up going for 'Bluffalo' chicken sandwiches at this new philly chicken place called High Steaks Cheese Steaks. After we finished eating our food Justo said lets go for a ride so we ended up driving to the Brooklyn Promenade. Keep in mind it was the coldest day of the year with snow flurries in the air, so I was not expecting a proposal. When we were walking through the Promenade Justo stopped and was looking over the water and started talking about our past 'I know we had our bad times however, lets start over with some good ones.' The next thing I knew Justo got down on one knee and proposed and I was in shock. I kept saying stop playing until it finally clicked in and I said yes. Remember it was cold as hell that night especially by the water however, when he dropped down on one knee I forgot about everything I was so happy and excited I forgot it was cold out.' They look forward to a Jul7y 2, 2008 celebration at Westbury Manor. We wish them all the best.
