How perfectly has this blog post fitted in?! On Wednesday 1st August of this week, my amazing and gorgeous best friend and boyfriend proposed to me! So of course, my favourite gifted accessory is my ENGAGEMENT RING! Boy, does it sound good to say that. I have some gorgeous other pieces of jewellery from Sam and my parents which I want to show you all sometime but at the moment I'm just too excited about the fact that I'M ENGAGED!
So, here is the beautiful ring...
My fiancée (I love saying that!) has such gorgeous taste. It's an antique ring, 18ct gold and 1/2ct diamonds. I love the shape, I don't think I've ever seen a rectangular ring before. It has two unusual grooves in the band either side of the diamonds as well. It really is one of the most unique rings I've ever seen and I'm so lucky to be the one donning it. I'm even luckier to have Sam though.
Carry on reading for more pictures and of course the (shortened!) story of our engagement!
Wednesday was our two year anniversary so it was a special day anyway. We went to the lovely city of Chester to celebrate and do a bit of shopping (I got a dress for Sam's 21st!). While we were there, we went firstly on a cruise boat to eat a picnic and then we hired a motor boat so that we could enjoy the views by ourself. On our ride back, Sam stopped the boat and while we were in the middle of the river and proposed. It was such a lovely moment and my smile hasn't left my face yet!
Here are a few of our photos from the day...

ReplyDeleteYour Portrait Giveaway
Congratulations! You look like a great couple, I can't wait to see the weddings snaps!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your engagement! That ring is gorgeous. The rectangular shape is definitely unique, but it looks like an instant classic. It’s very sophisticated and understated, but all the more elegant for that. Maybe you could get a customized wedding band that would match that, so you can wear them together!
ReplyDeleteNo, no boredom at all since your post is plainly romantic and cute. And good decision on getting engaged since you both make a good couple. The ring is just awesome too so congratulations and continue with the updates. :)
ReplyDeleteHaving a romantic boat ride after being officially engaged is really an ideal and memorable experience not just for the both of you, but for other couples as well who love to have a private time together after the woman said ‘yes.’ Congratulations to you guys and have a great day!
