I love these kind of threads…👍

I won’t be able to read the whole thing cause I’m running out the door soon but I will when I can.

I’m not married yet but will be in another 2 months…:eek:
We’re both excited.

Last summer my Fiance and I were planning a trip to Europe as a coming home vacation for me after being deployed for 6 months and also as an anniversary present for both of us.

I found out I was pregnant about 3 weeks before we were scheduled to leave. He had already been talking about a proposal before that and was doing the traditional hinting around (my sister and mom are terrible at keeping secrets…🤷) for my ring size and such. He had also had me what kind of rings I liked.
I was getting excited, thinking he was going to propose while we were on vacation. Either he is incredibly smart and had this all planned out or he is way too honest…but he came home one day and told me “I’m sorry baby, but I can’t ask you to marry me until my bonus comes in…so not until October.”

I was upset I would have to wait longer. So I didn’t expect anything. So we start the trip and we had planned a cruise from Spain to France to Italy. We are on our third day and in Monte Carlo, Monacco…walking around the Casino. He gives me the camera and I’m taking pictures of the Casino and the ocean. He sits down on a bench and I walk over to him (mind you, the place is actually deserted of people, we had gotten there in the morning). I walk over to him and see this, almost, sad look on his face.

I ask him whats wrong and he says…“I’m sorry I couldn’t ask you to marry me in Italy.” (I had casually mentioned how cool it would be to be proposed to outside St. Peter’s Square…cliche, I know!). So I start saying it’s okay and I understand.

He interrupts me and says “Can I ask you to Marry me in France instead?” Out comes the ring and he’s on one knee and I lost it! It was perfect timing. Just the two of us in a really special place…we are finishing RCIA and finishing the wedding prep. We’re getting married in my childhood church in May and I’m really, really excited!
 
Hi everyone,

Need your support!

I’m engaged and getting married next year (ask me where I am APPLYING to get married! )

Anyway, here in Canada there is a contest for me to be able to win $1,000 towards my wedding bands. For all those who are married, you know how much weddings can cost especially if it’s in Europe (ask me where I am APPLYING to get married! )

I’m kind of hoping you can all help me and my fiance with this bit of task.

You will need Facebook – On the search tab, search for “Spence Diamonds” then like their page. After you like their page, go to their contests and click on the contest to win the wedding bands and search for my entry, you’ll know because it has my name “Ernestine”.

I’ve got some friends in Facebook but I guess due to my being “too vocal” with beliefs, none of them are too willing to help. I’m hoping I can rely on your help and give us a bit of break with all the spending.

Oh and feel free to add me in Facebook, would love to have some Catholic friends in Facebook.

Thanks to all of you in advance. God bless!!
