My FH and I have been planning our wedding for February for about 4/5 months now. We knew we wanted a winterish wedding and we checked out this venue that we fell in love with and next thing we knew we were already putting down a down payment without officially being engaged. We were doing things a bit backwards! To be honest it started driving me crazy. I knew he was going to propose but didn't know how or when of course! It took him long enough hahaha but the wait was definitely worth it!!!!

So there's this band his parents want to pay for us to have at our wedding along with our DJ. They have been dying for us to listen to them. So Saturday FH suggests we go spend the weekend in Marco Island and check out this band at a local pub they were playing at that evening. We got there about eight and they had already started. His parents were there which he wasn't really expecting lol. They got a front row table. The band played one round of music and went on break. The lead singer came

    Dang, that is one romantic proposal! Did he write the song himself, or commission the band to write it? I hope you get a recording of it. Will it be your first dance song at your wedding? Congrats!

    @WWJo thank you! He definitely out did himself Smiley smile nope! He wrote the whole entire song himself. The band just put music to it and sing it Smiley smile he's really good at writing and poetry and such. It's a beautiful song!! Wish I could share it. We are going to use it as our first dance song now yes! And the lead singers wife is a professional photographer she happened to be there recording the band before us and luckily she recorded FHs proposal too! She's going to edit it and give us a copy! I'm so excited!!

    @Shauna hahaha that's too funny!! Just blare it randomly everywhere you guys are. My friends and family joked about how he wasn't going to do the actual proposal until our wedding day lol so I totally get it!!
