Cleofish how did your hubby to be propose at DC?
Well the sneaky boy booked it all online before we left for Florida. The story goes something along the lines that when we checked in (and I was uber giddy about seeing dolphins) he asked the check-in girl to 'use the bathroom', so she escorted him over, and which point he gave her the ring. She then took it away and gave it to the event co-ordinator who was in charge of the whole thing. We then went for our swim as normal at 10am, with the rest of our group, but at the end of the swim the trainer said they hadn't got our family photo properly, so she asked Matt & I to come back down for photos with the dolphin (Cindy). So the photog took a few pics (and I believe at this point they were sorting out behind us), and then the trainer told me sometimes the Dolphins bring back nice things from the water, so asked me to point to send Cindy away (which I did) and then stand with my hand out wide waiting for her to come back (at which point I started to wonder!!). Cindy then launched back at me with a buoy that said "Will You Marry Me?" on it, which I took, read and then hugged DF.
We then had some more photos took with Cindy & my bouy before we went to the shore to lots of 'Congratulations' etc. We were then led by our co-ordinator round to a privae cabana where my ring was in a treasure chest filled with tropical flowers. The cabana was all decked out in flowers, there was a table with a bottle of Champers, a framed picture of the dolphins, a box of choccies and a fridge stocked full of goodies. DF then got down on one knee, gave me my ring and that was that! We were treated like royalty all day, getting food service to the cabana if we wished, and they brought us everything we needed. We got the whole thing on DVD as part of the package, and we bought all the pictures on CD. It was absolutely amazing, and I believe they do a similar package for birthdays, anniversaries etc.
I have been told it cost a pretty penny, but it was worth every bit, and I'll never forget it. Hence why I love DC so much.
Sorry for the thread highjack - I still say the swim is completely worth it though!!
