That's so cool! My dream was to get married in Vegas or Disnery World! That would have been a great idea to do both! My DH and I actually went to Vegas this past Christmas and for a week in March. :goodvibes I love Vegas! Big Elvis fan too! You can check out all my Vegas photos and Disneymoon photos under my link below! Congrats again & welcome! :banana:

Thanks for the warm welcomes Fairy_Tale_Bride and feline figaro!!!

Fairy_Tale_Bride... I have been going back and forth with both Vegas and WDW, but decided that what I really want is a Disneymoon above all else. I'm still not 100% sure that I won't get married at WDW - the same as I am not 100% sure that I will get married in Vegas. But I know whatever I do, I WILL have a Disneymoon!!! I'll have to check out your pictures!

feline figaro... the proposal was a complete and total surprise.

We had been at MK all day long, and he had been fine. We went back to the resort to take a nap and change into warmer clothes, and went back to MK for Wishes. He started acting strange as soon as we got back to MK. Wishes didn't start until 9:00 that night, I think. It was about 6:00 when we got back to MK, and he was nervous to go on any rides because we might miss the fireworks. I reassured him, we rode some rides, and went to watch Spectro. After Spectro, he started acting REALLY weird. He kept walking off, first to the bathroom, then to take pictures of the castle - all the while MAKING SURE I stayed where I was, as not to get lost. I just thought he was acting weird.

Then we went towards the castle to get a spot for Wishes. I wanted to stand right in the center of the hub, he insisted that we stand off to the left. We argued, but I gave in, and started to get a strange feeling about the whole situation. When we got to "the spot", I noticed Photopass photographers set up behind us. I thought I had figured him out. He's having them take pictures of the fireworks for me, I thought. I have WDW pictures all over the place at home, especially amature fireworks shots. I figured I was getting professional shots! Call it denial, because in the back of my mind, I thought he might be proposing.

The fireworks started, Tink made her flight, I looked down, and there was my man on his knees... proposing. The rest is a blur, as I was in shock. If it weren't for the pictures, I might not remember a thing...

I'd post them, but it won't let me yet!
 

AKL_Megs :

Wow what an amazing proposal :thumbsup2 , its soo romantic that he had put so much thought in to it. You must have been totally over whelmed, i get choked up watching Wishes :sad: so to be able to say "thats where we got engaged" is amazing. Lucky lady!

Just think if he has been that thoughful for the proposal who knows what he ll come up with for your wedding / Disneymoon.

Who does n't love pics of Disney, i could be having a terrible day but show me Mickey/Minnie or the sight of Cinderellas castle & im sent to :cloud9: .

Im dying to see your pics of the proposal, sounds like your Df is a bit of a romantic :love: . My Df proposed 7 years a go & it was the standard getting down on one knee at a friends house (we were only 18 at the time, he has gotten more romantic since then), not the most romantic of settings but i became a Bride to be on that day so it was fantastic all the same . Still i ve got all the romance to come with our Disney wedding. I ve got a long way to go but im :hourglass already.
 
I don't know how many posts you have to make before you can post pictures... or URL's... but when I can, I will!
 
Hey AKL Megs!! Looks like we're pretty much neighbors!!! Congrats on your engagement and happy planning with your wedding! Best wishes... :wave2:
 
Meaghan,
Welcome and congratulations! That is such a sweet story. I am still waiting for my proposal, which is embarassing since I'm on here and we've been talking about so many wedding details! He tells me to leave it to him so he can plan it out...so I hope he comes up with something good!
 
DIsNeYSweEtHrTs, I guess we are neighbors! How are things up in Romeo? I am also marrying my HS sweetheart!!!

ItGirl753... your day will soon come, and when it does, you will be prepared!!! They do say it is never too soon to start planning!

Thank you both for the nice welcome!!!
 
Congratulations!!! When will you disneymoon? My FH and I will be disneymooning June 3-11th, 2007. I'm having a hard time deciding where to make dining reservations (I know I have awhile to go until I can officially make them). There are just so many choices!!
 
Romeo's great! We just moved out here from Sterling Heights a few months ago.
You'll have tons of fun reading all the posts on this site, and everyone is so helpful. Best of luck with everything! princess:
 
Meg's :wave:

Welcome to the boards. Congrats :thumbsup2 on your magical engagement. Cant wait to see pictures

Kim :wizard:
 
MissKris721... the Disneymoon is tentatively planned for late August 2007, or early September 2007. We'll be staying at AKL (of course!) and mainly focusing on AK (since fiance has never been) and TL and BB (since fiance has always wanted to do the water parks). I'm sure we'll do everything, but those three are a "must".

Namsupak and Kim10110... thanks for the warm welcomes! I'll post pics whenever I can!!!
 
Since I can now post pics, here are my proposal pics...

Absolute shock...

AKL_Megs those are sweet proposal pictures! Congratulations! I'm having a Disneymoon also, but I'm getting married at an old California Mission right here in Northern California. I'll be planning on staying at AKL too!
