[justskip70003]

that IS romantic! i'm actually tearing up reading this at my computer! (had our disneymoon a year ago, so it brings back memories) good luck and congratulations!!! she is a lucky lady!

you think you are tearing up. wait until you see the pics. i will be a complete mess. i am what is considered a mans man. but for some reason just thinking about the proposal makes me tear up like i just won a gold medal. you know when i was a kid and i seen someone win a gold medal i would ask my mom or dad why are they crying, they are suppoused to be happy... now i know.

It's so great to see how many of us are going to be there to join in your surprise!! I just hope we all aren't staring at you and dgf before your propose; she might get really suspicious! Enjoy your planning~

hahahaha, i will be wondering who is from DISboards. im thinking we should have a code. i.e. a tug of the ear, a wipe of the brow? u know like baseball.
somthing on the sly lol.

update!!!! i talked to the photographer today. he was AMAZING, he is going to be there with his family ready to roll. he is the hubby of a fellow DISer and i am floored by their kindness.

Aww, I'm crying now too! So sweet!! I'm subscribing to the this thread! I can't wait to see your pictures!!! I'm anothing one who got proposed to in their PJ's, but ours was Christmas Night after opening presents. He handed me a bag, I pulled the box out, and then he asked for it back. I thought he forgot to take the price tag off and it was the earings I asked for. So, I said "Here you go" and handed the box back to him and before I knew it, he was down on one knee.

Congrats to both of you and keep us posted!!!!

Magic Kingdom is not a recommended park to visit that day. You might want try Epcot since they will have lower crowds.

We'll be there that night for our DD's 5th B-Day!! She would LOVE seeing this

Congrats to you!!! My DH and I went to Disney the day after we got engaged, it was awesome!

There is some kind of sign, I think. Something Robert Diniro did in the Fockers movie? Hopefully someone will come along who knows for sure, or everyone could wear a LGMH.

OP, congratulations, can't wait to see the pics.

hahahaha MAMA GRAVE, spoken like a true professional.

 

[justskip70003]

bearlyanne and clandrom, thank you so much for your votes!

Maybe we should all wear a LGMH somewhere, be it a backback, purse, etc. It would be obvious to us that we are all "in on it" but probably wouldn't throw dgh off at all. What do you think?

[justskip70003]

So funny.

I was telling my DH Chris last night about the Proposal:

ME: "Chris, when we are at the MK on May 9, we need to watch Wishes around the Hub. Skip is proposing to his GF & I want to sneak a peek!"

CHRIS: "Umm, Jack, who is Skip? Do I know him?" (my name is Jacquelyn & he calls me Jack)

ME: "No, but he is on the DIS. We've been talking about it all week"

CHRIS: "Riiiight. Your DIS people. Ok, just tell me where to be and I'll go!"

I am so happy for you both. Since I saw your picture, I know who to look for amongst the hundreds of folks at the hub!!

 

[metzgardesign]

Hopefully, she says "Yes!" Nothing brings awkward to a romantic vacation like a rejected marriage proposal. Could make the rest of the trip "less than magical." All the Goofy antics and animatronics in the world won't erase that sting.

In seriousness......congrats (I hope) early. Best wishes for the future.

This happened at my house too, lol!! See ya there!!

 

[merbobear]

We are actually going to be in MK on the 9th, and I will try to keep an eye out for you! Your plan sounds perfect and I bet your future fiance will love it - congratulations!!

eta...I realize I don't even know you, hope it's not weird that an absolute stranger would want to watch your engagement..I just think it will be a magical moment!

 

[michelleiada]

if any of my disboard buddys are going to be there i would love to have you see this. i have thought it out for months. tell me if you think this is romantic.

we are HUGE wishes fans. but she has NO idea that magic, memories and you shows before it. i keep saying i have a huge surprise at disney. its somthing you havent seen yet and you will love it. so she is built up for this "show" i wont give her the name. i drop hints all the time but she is none the wiser.

anyway to make a long story short. at the end in between when the lady sings "open up your heart and let the memories begin", i will drop to one knee with uncle walt saying "to everyone whose come to this happy place... welcome", then the ending fireworks. she has NO idea. to take it a step further we have friends waiting in the outskirts when at a certain time will make there way up to us to surprise her even more.

if you would like to see this. we will be directly infront of the walt and mickey statue about 10 feet from the street. again any feedback would be much appreciated

I'm impressed...and I'll admit a little teary! We will be there but weren't planning on MK on Monday. We will try to head over to see it. If we don't get there...best of luck to you. Hope she says "yes"

 

[mmmbop]

That's so sweet!!!

I would love to be there, would you consider moving it to the 11th?

Agreed! Please move it to May 11! I want DBF to get an idea

Good luck and have a fantastic time! Hope everything goes well Can't wait for the update!
