She Said Yes

Blindside_137 · 10-19-2016, 07:45 AM

I always found it funny how those guys in the movies would propose and then say they felt as though they wanted to shout it to the world. I always thought, what suckers. Or, that isn't real life...

Well here I am, guilty of the same feeling. I don't venture much outside of e90post and m3post photo and general sections. I mainly stick to the good old "nice car" comments. But I am so incredibly happy about my weekend and the engagement that I wanted to share it with the forum.

I made a video of the weekend with the goal in mind for family and friends to watch it, and feel like they are right there with us the entire way. I am so excited about how it turned out that I wanted to post it here.

I filmed with a GoPro Hero4 Silver and used a Feiyutech G4 gimbal which I highly recommend. My girlfriend thought it was an ordinary beach trip on a weekend but apparently said I was acting weird all week. So she constantly struggled with telling herself this could be it, or that she was simply overthinking things. Anyway, it was a moment I'll never forget. And I am so happy I have it all on video from other angles to help remember it by.

Thanks for looking!

Thank you! That was another reason I wanted to have a video of the proposal itself. But it turned into much more, being a video of the whole day and I couldn't be happier to have this forever.

F30lolz · 10-19-2016, 08:23 AM

Opening the door for a female. I outta try that once in my life.

Congrats dude!

Joekerr · 10-19-2016, 08:29 AM

Congrats! Looked like a beautiful spot to propose and you both look very happy, best wishes for a great future (and a long one) together!

Were you nervous about *when* the right time was? I know for me, I wound up pulling the ring box out while she was distracted when we were by the beach and putting it behind my back so there was no way I could delay any further...it was do or die at that point, then it was just a matter of finding a way to propose. Good times. Because I'm pretty sure I could have made excuses most of the day and just really worked myself up into some high state of nervousness.

Funny thing - she thought for sure I was taking her to ribfest that day - she had no clue before we left. She said she started to clue in once we picked up the ready to go picnic lunch at a winery and headed to the beach though, since that's unlike me.

jtodd_fl · 10-19-2016, 08:36 AM

Congratulations. I'll get inb4 the cynicism starts! I hope you are happy for many years to come. Congrats! Enjoy.
