I am getting married !

Last week-end, my boyfriend officially asked me to marry him. I say officially because we had already decided we wanted to get married last december. But we thought it would be nice if he proposed to me anyway. He did it while we were having coffee in the coffee place where we met. Well we didn’t exactly meet there but that’s where we got to know each other.

We actually went to the same schools when we were 10-12 years old and in Cégep (17-18 years old). We had only talked to each other once or twice at the time. So when I walked in the café “Deux Marie” on Saint-Denis to grab a coffee to go on November 18, 2008, and we saw each other, we immediately recognized one another and started talking. Four days later, we kissed. And we have been together ever since.

We are getting married next august and I can’t even begin to tell you how happy I am that I get to marry my favorite person on this planet and live with him for the rest of my life.

The ring he got me is exactly what I had been dreaming of : delicate, light, gold with a tiny diamond. I didn’t want a diamond sticking out of the ring or anything too bulky (says the girl who makes statement jewelry). Here it is :

I can’t wait to share with you all the wedding inspiration I have been gathering on my Pinterest : the best tool for any bride-to-be. The amount of ideas you can get from there is almost overwhelming.

Now let me get back to my favorite activity these days : staring at my left hand 🙂
