FINALLY!!!! After 7 1/2 years together and almost 2 years since the ring was designed and completed....my honey finally proposed!!! On Sunday, we both walked in the marathon. Monday night, after Wishes, he proposed in front of the partners statue. It was truly a magical moment...I've been waiting FOREVER and wasn't sure it would ever finally happen...but he surprised me, and boy was it worth the wait!!!
Here's the ring...we actually designed it together a couple of years ago after we kept finding elements in different rings we liked but nothing that brought everything together the way we wanted. I loved a vintage look with engraving and filigree; he really wanted to include "hidden" mickeys in it...I never saw the finished ring...once we signed off on the design, I was out of the picture until he was ready to propose. I had no idea it would take him almost two years to be ready...
It turned out so much prettier than I could have ever imagined. After talking about it for so long, I didn't think there was any way I could be surprised in the actual moment, but I really was...and I got way more emotional than I expected...It really was perfect!!!
Anyway after many years of reading about everyone's engagements and weddings here on the Dis, I am very excited to finally be sharing my own!!!
Wishes really DO come true....eventually!!!!

Couldn't have picked it better myself!
) But my nan used to wear this ring so it's a gift from her as well. We has it re-set on to a rose gold diamond band because I love rose gold.
