THE PROPOSAL

To start Im engaged since March 1st 2012, My boyfriend at that time (now fiance) took me into a trip in the north coast of Peru to make the proposal there, the first day we arrived there he got a sunburn totally terrible that caused a horrible allergy, which pretty much ruined the moment ( why i knew there was going to be a proposal?  because we had been talking about since long time before about it, so i knew it would happen in this trip) despite of that he did it and that night after to arrive to Punta Sal (name of the beach) he proposed me , was very direct and sweet, he was taking pictures of us and then showed me one of the pics in the camera and it was him holding the box with the ring just close to me, then he told me some sweet words about how much he loved me and the time we had been together, was sweet!!! but then we came back to reality, he saw very bad of the sunburn and that night was really terrible, he passed the night awake with horrible pain, so obviously that proposal i will never forget it. ( first proposal coming not so soon, cuz i dont have the pics with me right now)

For long time Ive felt a lill bit sad that such important event had been "bothered" by that "accident" i think i tend to be like very dreamy and think that my life will be as the others, when obviously i have to live my own life in the way it has to be, to resume i had assumed but not totally accepted that my proposal was not so as i thought it would be, but i was thinking with happiness in the next step to plan the wedding!!! ... so since that moment i started to see magazines, web pages, wedding dresses, places for the ceremony and reception ,wedding bands, bridesmaid dresses, cakes, everythinggggg you could imagine i was into, it was obssesive, i was thinking to plan it for the next year 2013 december, so a whole year to do it, but for reasons out of my hands we couldnt make it for the 2013, so i focused my mind on my work and at the same time on a wedding for 2014. My fiance and I were not very sure about the location and the time, since our wedding will be a civil one only , I wanted it be looking as if it was a religious one ( Im cristian ,catholic) so since always i dreamed to have a religious wedding even if i dont practice my religious life as i would like ,it was a dreamed i had since child, but a civil one for me is enough if we make it nice. So in March of this year he arrived from France to Peru to finally get married, for things of " luck " we have been sick for like 3 weeks, which delayed our things a lot.... but we kept searching for places and other things for the wedding , by internet, while we advanced with a couple of things about the documents....on april 4th was our 4th aniversary of meeting in "real" ( yes we met by internet but thts other history) so both been sick we didnt really planned to do much, but oh surprised he planned something surprise for me, " days before he told me to get ready for a "photoshoot" (as i have this blog i would like to post certain pics on it and as hes studying for being photographer ) so was a very nice way to celebrate it, doing something different, he told me he rented a professional studio, so i got ready for that saturday 5th to go there, but then it got that day and he told me first he made an appointment with an event planner of an hotel to check their services and their salones for our wedding, so that day arrived and as usual i was late (i know is a bad thing, i have to really change that) but in all the ays we arrived to the hotel, a beautiful one called Los Delfines Hotel, here in Lima  ,Peru. For my surprise when we arrived there he asked for his reservation of room, which made me smile, he told me he reserved th room for the pics, and to pass time alone, since now we ar staying at my parents house, but in the middle of the check in, there was a problem, I DIDNT TAKE MY ID  with me, (first i never really take my wallet or ID if i know i will not need it, so as we were going to take pics, for what i will imagine that i will need them, plus we are in the middle of making documets for our weddinf i cant give any chance to lose my ID)  so he cheked in and then we had to come back home for my ID 3 hours wasted on the road. when we arrived we were tired and kind of bored, but with desires to overpass the fool moment and enjoy the night, being already installed in the room he went to the bathroom, so i waited , it took kind of long time, i was watching tv, i quited my belt that was holding my kind of tunic dress, i made in bun to be relaxed, for the hurry i didnt eat all that day ,so i took chips to wait, i asked him if he was fine, he said " yes"... i asked if he would take long?  ... he said " i hope not"... it seems to personal this part, so i got focused into my tv program, then he called me, and so i went to see what was taking so long, (even if in my mind i was thinking he was bad of the stomach or something) when i open the door it was romantic music, all illuminated with candles and red rose petals everywhere and a cute draw with them on the floor that i was trying to realize what was ( not so clear for me at the beginning what was happening, excepting that he prepared a romantic bath)

 then i saw the camera on a tripod ( i guessed filming) so i thougth ...." this is my proposal????" and then my second thought " oh noooooooo I look terrible", i was kind of behind the door in the middle of all my thoughts about him being bad of stomach, then a romantic bath setting and then realizing that he was re making a proposal to me, MY DREAM ONE!!  and then that i was looking not at all nice, i have to add that i was with sandals plus the tunic dress and my bun, nothing so chic, but he told me to enter that will be something "spontaneous", his favorite way to think about life. so i entered and watching the petals on the floor he came closer and went on his knees and took out of his pocket the lill box cointaining the rings and started to say his thoughts and me i was so shocked and super suprised that this was actually happening, thinking , still on him bad, on the petals, on the candles, on how was possible i didnt get a clue that this will happen, that this morning he took longer than usual to go to the supermaket to buy bread for the breakfast, that i even kind of touched him like checking him:his pants superfitially thinking that maybe he got me a lill present for our anniversary, but never i thought would be rings...so with all this in my mind and watching the rings on that box and realizing they were the ones we saw like 2 to 3 weeks previously when we were shopping for wedding bands, so in my head there was a world of things passing and trying to diggest and he was talking and me just thinking on how happy i was that he re make everything for me, to become that dream truth, I was sooooooo happy that when he finally stopped i said " THANK YOU" and i wanted to give him a kiss....for such a beautiful surprise...when suddenly he standed up and serious turned off the cam and i asked what happened?  he said....he was expecting other answer ( he has a lill trauma with the thanks from me.....shhhh is a secret) so i explained him all the things, how i was feeling, that my thanks was because he re make and re invent this magical moment for me in such especial day for us...after an emotional moment for both and understanding each other, he re turned on the cam and came on his knees again to re ask that magical question....i guess the answer is obvious at this point...i said YES!!!!... he put the rings on my finger and kissed him and huged him...it was very especial and really shocking for so surprising that it was. I loved it... I LOVE MY NEW RING/ S!!!

After we took some pics for the memories, obviously i asked him lill bit of time to put together myself and look "decent" at least for the pics .

and then we went for a dinner in the hotel, was very nice ( there was a baby shower also in that moment, which made us think more about that hotel for our wedding) it was very nice that dinner and yummy!! he asked a salad mix of veggies and me a salad of potatoe and meat.

the main course was the same for both chuleta de cerdo, i dont know in english, it was pork with veggies under a sauce of sauco ( a fruit ) with rice.

 the dessert was a lill  "cold" cake with fruits sauce over and coconut (the green lill things)

(  his timid side is cute ... shhhhhh )

 then we came back to the room for a lill photoshoot, since i had a bunch of clothes with me, it took us kind of long at the end, to finally enjoy of a very romantic night with my love. ( i didnt forget pictures of my ring, i will upload them in a next post)

this a especial part for my lovely husband to be
