(an engagement picture)
…on april 17th, jay asked me to marry him at the plantation where we would end up getting married. he proposed with a good ole’ flower he had made into a ring. we talked, and cried, and prayed. he brought a tiny radio and we waited until it was dark outside to dance in a field under the stars (i know, i know…) anywho, april 17th is a good day and a day i will never forget… a start of our little journey.
hope you are having a lovely sunday!
love,
arielle

The story of how he proposed, flower ring and all, is so romantic. You guys got engaged on my baby sister’s birthday. It was wonderful to hear how that part of your journey began.
Hope you had a beautiful weekend.

Aw, that’s so sweet. Happy april 17th to you!
p.s. Sydney is 17 hours ahead of the west coast of the states (not sure where you are). So we’re always 1 day ahead, which does make blogging kind of funny :)

Chaucee says
So happy for you two : ) And how romantic to use a flower ring!
chetreanna says
aw. That is too precious. I seriously love your blog. Does your husband ever read the posts that talk about him? I’m sure he knows how much you love him already so reading wouldn’t be necessary. Did you guys do anything special for your proposal-versary? lol made up word I know.
