How Jeff planned for the proposal
Thoughts on this website…
How in the hell did he do all of this without me having a clue! And.. I thought I read everything yesterday but I missed a whole page. It all feels so surreal. I have not gotten a chance to tell anyone in person… I have however said things like…
36 hours left & Tricia Helfer
A day and a half before the proposal, the same time it takes to get up to Seattle by train, is all that stands between me and a “Yes” or “No” from Jenn. All plans are still good and confirmations are coming in. This morning I got a text from…
The cat has one paw out of the bag
So now there are more people that know about plans this weekend. Denise and Joseph, both from my work, now know. They have no direct ties to Jenn so I am confident that nothing has gotten back to her. It is hard to not tell anyone else at this point. …
Making a list, and checking it twice
Jenn has been very nice, so she gets coal turned into a diamond this weekend. Well really a few dozen diamonds in the wedding band. I am pulling together my last minute lists of things to do and things I have done for Saturday. It is a list that keeps…
The ultimate gift card
This last weekend was a good weekend for planning. I was able to go to the Irvine Spectrum and pick up numerous gift cards and the ultimate gift card, a credit card. I got cards at White House|Black Market, Windsor, Forever 21, Fredrick’s and Claire’s. I told Jenn that if…
T-minus: 7 Days…
So now that everything is in place, for the msot part, I am getting more nervous. Jenn is finally turning around and getting excited about shopping with my money. I fear that she will buy the dress she likes on sale than the dress she loves at full price. I…
New Shirt and Tie. Who likes it?
During my lunch break today I went to Macy’s and found what I think will be a good new shirt and tie. I wanted a Perry Ellis Portofino shirt like the one I wore at Sarah and Evan’s wedding. However neither Macy’s or Nordstrom had the brand and style. Oh…
Photos of the Wedding Ring Set
Below are images taken with my new macro lens at home. The bride and groom rubber duckies are ones Jenn bought in Seattle. The rubber ducky with the “I (heart) U” was the original duck I told Jenn that I loved her with. It has sentimental value to both her…
Limo as good as done
So my final part of the planning for the proposal night has been set in motion. I just spoke with Jason at Affordable Limos and he has given me a great price quote far better than anything I have seen yet. I await his reply e-mail to confirm everything but…
2 Weeks, I’m getting anxious
I woke up this morning, left the apartment and thought to myself I have 2 weeks to pull the rest of the proposal together. So far I have her friend Laura on board for helping get Jenn out of the house and spending money. Then Laura’s boyfriend James agreed to…
What to say?
The books i have been reading all say there needs to be some sort of perfect mini-speech right before I ask Jenn. I am freaking out as to what to write. I know I could go all wishy-washy and make her cry (she might be crying without my speech) but…
Seattle could have been a great place to propose
This last weekend Jenn and I went to Seattle. We took the Coast Starlight Amtrak train from Los Angeles Union Station to Seattle. It took 36 hours to get to Seattle and was a great ride. While in Seattle I made reservations at SkyCity which is at the top level…
The Secret Lunch with Laura
The game is a foot. I have just returned from lunch with Laura, Jenn’s friend who is going to assist me in planning and carrying out the proposal. She is totally on board with the general idea of the proposal and is going to get her boyfriend James involved as…
Hotel Angeleno convention blocking my plans
Well I attempted to get a date for the proposal confirmed at the Hotel Angeleno. However I was unable to because they are 100% booked for that night. So I reserved the following night. I sure how that Jenn’s sister Sarah doesn’t have her baby early so that I can…
