He proposed New Year's Eve right at the countdown. His friend (the best man in the panthers football sweatshirt) didn't realize what he was doing and kept asking him what he was doing in the floor while he was trying to pop the question! lol
My Father reserved a local bar in our area an invited our friends and family to celebrate our engagement. We went crazy and decided to make the 3 tier cake together. We realized we are not very good bakers!
We spent a long weekend in St. Simons Island, GA. Yes, I did have to have the shirt that said, "I'm getting married Bitches!"
Shoes for my bridemaids. Gave them to the girls as their wedding gift from me. www.payless.com ($25.99 each)
I changed my mind on my shoes...Had to have damask!!
I chose the black dresses for my girls. Found a cheaper version of the two birds on www.dessy.com. Later I found that Victoria secret actually has a dress very similar at a MUCH better price.
