Congratulations everyone that got engaged at WDW. I enjoyed reading everyone's stories. I hope to have a Disney engagement soon!! It is where I met my boyfriend and it is the most Magical place to get engaged.
Greetings from the Official Fiance of KimSunshineDAK!
After meeting through the Walt Disney World College Program experience as Walt Disney World Cast Members, we actually got engaged in Kim's home state of New Jersey on August 1, 2006 after exactly 2 years of dating each other at her church. Then I had another special proposal in store for her when we got to WDW! I have been waiting to send this reply until after the big moment in Florida! I re-proposed to Kim on November 1, 2006 at The Magic Kingdom. Here is the story (written in third-person):
Three months after our first proposal in New Jersey, we returned to our magical place, Walt Disney World! Jason was planning another special engagement renewal moment during their visit. He had purchased a crystal shoe from Arribas Brothers in Cinderella Castle at The Magic Kingdom early in our relationship. During this trip he went to Arribas Brothers in Downtown Disney Marketplace to have the shoe engraved with Kimberly on the side. He also scouted out places at The Magic Kingdom and called Peter (Jason's best friend who set us up) so he could join us. On Wednesday, November 1, 2006, Kim, her brother, and Jason, with the crystal shoe in his pocket, met up with Peter and his daughter at the Walt Disney World Monorail station at the Transportation and Ticket Center. We transported ourselves to the main entrance of The Magic Kingdom. We began by walking up the street of Main Street USA to the center hub of the park. Jason slowly guided the group to the spoke that led to Tomorrowland. Just a few footsteps down the pathway and to the left Jason and Kim started walking into the Rose Garden. There is a little place where the sidewalk points directly to Cinderella Castle. When we got to this point, Jason took Kims hand and looked into her eyes and after some more romantic words that could only have been inspired by the Magic of Disney and the crystal shoe, Jason said, By the magic of the Walt Disney World College Program and the Disney Organization, Will you marry me? With the crystal shoe from his hand to hers, she said YES with lots of Pixie Dust all around us! And it was the beginning to living happily ever after!
