He Put A Ring On It

Reader, I married him. … Okay well not quite yet (I was using the chance to quote Jane Eyre) but as of Saturday 12th December we did get engaged!!!!

A few people have said to me that they’re looking forward to my account of the proposal on my blog. If you’ve read for a while you may have noticed that I’m generally quite open. However! I’m not very good about writing down soppy things and I also don’t want to miss the chance to tell people about the proposal with many’a details so I shan’t go into every single thing here, but I’ll give you a little overview.

So the proposal actually spread over two evenings! The first evening included a trip down memory lane where we went out for dinner to eat at the restaurant where we first properly started getting to know each other over five and a half years ago. The second evening ended with us sat under a tree, all wrapped round with fairy lights (that’s the tree, not the two of us) and me with an engagement ring on my finger 🥰 an engagement ring which fits perfectly by the way! Nolz went to a lot of trouble to work out my ring size and picked an absolutely beautiful ring that I loooove so hats off to the guy!

Despite the fact that I’d been anticipating this day for quite a while, he did actually manage to catch me a bit off guard! I had been anticipating that I’d have my nails all beautifully painted, be wearing a specific dress, that it’d be in the day time and also the location where we’d get engaged so it was rather a surprise when it didn’t happen at all how I’d planned 😂

Well anyways, you may be wondering what our thoughts are on what comes next. Since we are in a rather unusual situation of having half our lives in two different places that are very far away from each other, the plan is to have two weddings. One in England and one in Argentina. So it’s time to get planning!

As our situation is complicated enough, even without COVID, we would really appreciate it if you are a church-goer, if you could keep us in your prayers as we go forward and work out the logistics. And also for us as a couple as we prepare to get married (!!!).
