Wahey!!! DP has put a rock on my finger!!

[spook]

He hid it in my bag at the seaside and asked me infront of my Ds's if I would marry him.
And I said YES!!

Congratulations great news!

I know Soapbox, I know!!!
No ginmummy. Pmsl! It is very shiny and definately not aniseed flavoured!!

Marina-V.H.D.
I love that

And we love a happy ending, especially such a richly deserved and naturally just one

That's lovely news! Congratulations Spook!

Ahhh, lovely! Congratulations!

Thanks girls.
Think we'll be consuming alot of you over the next few weeks Pinkchampagne. You are after all my favourite tipple. I am a girl of immodest tastes.

Wahay! Congratulations

Fabulous! Congratulations. How exciting. Have you got a date for the big day?

Well Bugsy2 I would rather just get on with it and do it at Christmas but I think we're looking more like March April time.
When I said Christmas DP's mother went pale at the thought of all the weight she wants to lose!!
The thought of a huge full on wedding scares the shit out of me but DP is catholic and has about 305 cousin in Ireland

Awww Spook - such fantastic news.
Can't think of anyone more deserving of some happiness myself

Ah, that's lovely Spook. Bet he's glad you said yes after asking you in front of the boys. I would have been tempted to tease him .

Congratulations

Romantic old devil , congratulations!

congratulations spook - i remember your story, and i'm so happy for you!!!

Thanks so much all of you. Am now trying to get on with it. Don't want to be a bridezilla. Also don't understand how this can be done for less than 10 grand.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Maybe I should start a "Help me plan my wedding" thread!
We're looking at March/April now.

Congratulations Spook

My BIL is getting married on xmas eve in Canada. They've got everything all for under 10k.
Its taken them a bit of homework and searching but it can be done!

All the best.

Spook- Im soooo happy for both of you ( especially you!!) I remember your story so well, im over the moon that you have found someone so special and lovely.

you deserve ALL of the happiness in the world

congrats again- looking forward to hearing all of your impending wedding plans on here xxx

spook I'm getting married next August here . I'm sure you could find a similar hotel in your area. Ours, altogether, is costing about £7.5k - and the honeymoon is 2.5 of that

Meant to say, we're only having 34 guests during the day but we've got about 120 coming in the evening

Have you chosen bridesmaids? best man? dress? venue?

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH how exciting!

Congratulations - sometimes our dp's can be the dogs b***ks

Notactuallyamum-that place looks luscious! My problem is that DP really wants a Catholic Ceremony and all those IRISH COUSINS!! Agghh.
I would quite quite happily run away to the Caribbean tomorrow!
Bah humbug..listen to me!
Peppapog-don't really want bridesmaids. Just my two little page boys
And the venue is the biggest headache really.
Gawd knows!
