Popping The Question

Hello Again,

Guys you know that moment when you feel that you are ready to tie the knot with your girlfriend? You start getting the butterflies, your heart jumps every time you are around her, you can't help but smile when she enters a room, you always are by her side no matter where your at. Well these are feelings that might help push you to propose. However, here is a list of Do's and Don'ts when proposing:


  • Go somewhere romantic and  make it special. Make it a day that you will never forget and make sure she wont forget it either. If it's the right time and the right setting then you will win her heart over and over again. 
  • Don't embarrass her or make her feel unimportant. A football game, a concert, a movie theater are not good ideas for places to propose. These can be great openers before taking her out or after you propose, but not the best idea for the romantic moment. 
  • Make sure that you have someone taking photos, whether it is her parents, your parents, or a friend make sure they capture the moment so that the two of you can get it framed. Also it will help with future stories down the road. 
  • Make sure you ask her dad. He is the most important person in her life besides you. He was her first love and will always be her first love, but just because she gave her heart to you, doesn't mean that you can ignore the dad. He needs to be able to give his daughter away, and he might also have some of that fatherly advice that will help you out with his daughter since he knows her the best. Also make sure your parents know that you are going to pop the question. Sometimes its good to get an opinion from them on how and where to do it. 
  • Don't Forget the ring... the ring is the most important part it is the symbol with which you are committing yourself to her. You can always get a semi- precious stone and then get her a diamond studded band for the wedding day. Semi- precious stones can be very beautiful and can mean more to her than a small diamond ring. Also if she loves vintage and old- fashioned go to an antique store or a pawn shop and purchase something similar and you can always find something cheaper there. 
  • Breath Check: if your proposing make sure you look good and smell good. If you need to pop a mint into your mouth before you propose. As I like to say, "A good smelling man will go a long way in life" and this is so true, if you smell good then your girlfriend will always be happy. Don't be afraid to be daring with your clothing choices, have her help you choose a style or a color that she thinks will look good on you or have your mom or sister help you with this.
I hope this little tips help you know the steps that you should follow as you are thinking an considering proposing to the girl of your dreams. 

XOXO

Letter to my Future Husband on our wedding day (FUTURE)

Hello everyone! Here is a letter that I hope to one day give to my fiance on our wedding day before the ceremony where we will be exchanging our vows for each other. This is something I saw on Pinterest and I absolutely loved it! So here it goes Dear Sweetheart, On this day we will be married and I wanted to write to you a letter that tells you all about me and about what I promise to bring to this marriage before and after the I- Do's. Firstly, I just want to thank you in advance for putting up with me and my random mood swings. Thanks for always being the shoulder I could cry on, and the person who knew just what to say in order to make my day that much brighter. You were always good at producing a smile on my face even in the worst of times. So I just wanted to say thank you! Secondly, I wanted to let you know a few more promises that I might not have put into my vows  (Since I haven't written these and probably wont for a while this will most likely be in the vows or

Growing Old Together

Image
Hey~  I have come to realize that my life will never really be anything of great importance. Sure I will someday (Lord, willing) have a husband and hopefully 3 adorable kids that will run around the backyard. Kids who love to go on family vacations and spend time with me. Kids who even when they are in college still want to curl up next me and talk about whatever is going on in their life. I want to be one of those moms, wives, and grandmothers that everyone im near just wants to curl up next to me and cuddle as we talk or watch television. Talk about the perfect dream right, perfect movie worthy dream of mine. I am hoping that it does come true someday, but until that day comes I will forever dream about it. I hope to someday be the cute old couple walking hand in hand down the beach as we reminisce about our lives together and everything we accomplished. Like the adorable couple pictured.  Or to be the old couple where yes we do bicker back and forth like "An old married

The Perfect Date

Hey again, So here is an idea for all you men out there on what a perfect date looks like. For those of you reading this here is a short list of "Do's and Don'ts": Don't over plan: a few simple ideas is perfect, girls don't want the whole night planned out, sometimes spontaneity is good. Expect to pay for the date: Trust me this is a major plus to the female... However, be open and talk to her about this. Coffee is not a date: Going to the coffee house can be a great tool to get to know someone, but it is not a date. Don't consider it one unless you are already in a conversation and you only have half an hour to spend time with her.  Do let her choose ideas: If you can't make up your mind on two different places, let her choose as she might have a preference. If not then make it a surprise because every woman likes surprises even the ones who wont admit it.  Jewelry, chocolates, or flowers: These are nice to get once in awhile, especially the
