So Amazingly Beautiful--You ladies will appreciate this

Beautiful Engagement

Its long but soo worth it. Make sure your speaker is up too. You'll like i did

Here's the back story....

'A couple in GA got engaged and the guy went all out and is now being
recognized all over the U.S. for the love he has for his now fiancée.
When you watch this you will want to cry. This is one more reason for
not settling for less.

Imagine......... thinking you are attending your brother's birthday
party, just to find out your boyfriend has reserved ten (10) rooms @ the
Ritz Carlton...Upon entering each room a special letter is being read by
someone special (in your circle of friends/family). Please take notice
to the detail of each room, different color roses and some are laced in
gold (breath taking). I'm not sure how long it took this young man to
prepare this surprise for her... But I'm very sure she was very pleased.
This is off the charts and very romantic.

Robert is a graduate of Southern University (Q-dog) and is now an
accountant with Home Depot at their corporate office in
Atlanta. My
understanding is that he financially footed the bill for this weekend
himself. It was not supplemented by his parents. I was told that he
moved in with his sister for approx. 6mos. and saved the money to pay
for the engagement ring and all of the bells and whistles for this
very
special evening.

A radio station in ATL was playing the song in the slide show and
described what he had done and some men called in saying they had to
step their game up. It actually touched a few of them because they
admitted they didn't respect women on the level that he respects her.'

Honestly, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say W T F. I don't even get it. Letters? Read by everyone you know? Hmmm....after letter #1 I'd say 'FH, what's going on here?' Don't get me wrong, it's beautiful and I'm sure that it must be something that she understood based on their relationship, their families and their personalities. But for me I'd be like hmmmm...I'm in a ballgown...you're in a tux....we're going to rooms where letters are being read by people we know....this is def not my bro's bday....omgwtf.'



yea u can tell from the first few photos she knew what was about to happen cuz she was already crying.

ok i have a confession

i hated it - thought it was corny and i am so glad my proposal was nothing like that. . . its about the sentiment not the 'show' of it - and that was just a big show . . .

ok i guess i have to hand in my 'girl card' now. . . .



Nope, I guess I have to hand my girl card in too. I thought that was just awkward for some reason.

i liked it, im pretty sure that she knew right away what was happening - but imagine the anticipation - not knowing which room FH was going to be in, and what he was going to say, and what the ring would be like

i liked it - i love the way my FH proposed but I wouldnt have minded if he did something like that either - i think its really romantic - and even though it is definitley 'showy' it must have taken A LOT of planning - which is really sweet and thoughtful.......imagine if your FH went through all that trouble! i think that is the sweetest part - that he contacted all their friends, their family, booked the room, saved the money, kept it a secret, hired a photographer, i mean everything that he did is a lot to pull off - i wish someone would do something that romantic for me!

i didnt make it a big deal either. i spoke to my mother a few times b4 i got back home from FL and didnt say a word. When I got home noone made a big deal about it. I just showed her my ring and that was it lol. I was a bit shy about the whole thing.

I LOVED it...UNTIL he actually proposed!!!!


RIGHT!! If I hadn't read the part before where they called her his fiance, I would have thought that she said no! He was standing by himself, she was crying, neither of them looked happy....

ok even though i thought it was a little too dramatic and a little ummmmmm overdone...i still got teary....so i don't know how i generally feel about it. I think it was a cute idea, but it was a little too much.....and he looked so frikkin serious...did he smile at all? i missed it.....but ummm yeah too much for me.....i'm glad it was just me and FH

True dat!!! It was well thought out, but I embarass easilly and love that FH share things like that between us and no one else....

The room he brings her to at the end was really pretty though... id be afraid of burning the ritz down....



That's funny! I was thinking the whole time, how could the hotel let him use real candles...so I'm thinking they were those battery operated candles.

The actual montage was beautiful. I would have felt lucky to have someone doe that for me-
However just like everyone else MY proposal was the best ever!!

That was absolutely beautiful. You can't get no more sentimental than that. There is no more show off to that than having a big wedding. I love it. But to each is own.

Again love it and I think he put alot of effort into it which is extra nice.

Ditto
You ladies say that you wouldn't want that, but I will bet my last dime if you FH or DH did that you ladies with be on the site sharing your story with anyone who would listen.

Of course anything that my FH did to express his love for me I would appreciate

but honestly, if he did anything like that for me i would be heart broken ( and never show it ) bc that would mean that he didn't truly KNOW me even after all of these years. . .

but obviously, he knows his FW and knows that she would like something like that ( hopefully lol )
