Not at all weird, I literally picked out my ring with my husband. It is a big purchase and I have friends that hate their rings because their guy didn’t know what they liked.
Melissa Jennings Same!!! I just got engaged and basically picked out my ring before too. If he had gotten any of the rings he had shown me, i would have not liked it at all😂😂😂
Make sure you take your friend's advice and choose your bridesmaids slowly! Just like her, for my first marriage, I asked one of my oldest friends right away to be my maid-of-honour, and boy did I regret it! Really evaluate the people so you don't end up with your "Mindy & Layla" horror stories!
So... I just got done watching both of your nightmare MOH/Bridesmaid videos! I clicked on them SOOO fast when I saw them in my video recommendations. I'm getting married this October, so I thought it would be fun to watch them and it was. I also subscribed and can't wait to see more of your content. Fortunately, I have ZERO drama in my bridal party though! No Mindys or Laylas, thank goodness! Lol. Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS!!! This story is too cute and your ring is soooooo beautiful. I hope your wedding planning goes a hell of a lot smoother than your poor friend's did, but I'm happy to hear that her wedding still went off without a hitch all things considered. I don't know how she stayed so nice and so calm. I would have straight up punched Layla's stupid face in if she said some shit like that to me. Hahaha.
This is giving me flashbacks to the week I got engaged, I had thought it would be at Be Our Guest, but he got nervous about doing it in public so it ended up being in a more private moment. Love your story, those pictures are amazing!
I just discovered your channel. You are really good at storytelling. I felt like I was right in the action with the Wedding drama and now this. Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you. What a magical way to get engaged. I hope your bridesmaids are good to you. I look forward to watching more of your content.
I just subbed to your channel because I love the way you tell stories (especially this one and the bridesmaids one)! Can’t wait to see more wedding vids!! And congrats ❤️
Congratulations on your engagement x I picked out my own ring as well, not weird at all, it gives them an idea of what you like. Getting married on Friday (May 3rd) can’t wait! And we’re going to Disney world on honeymoon x
Same. I never tried on rings but I went looking online and picked out the style I liked for my ring. We also did Disney as a honeymoon. Florida in November was perfect.
I’m a new subscriber. Your vlog randomly popped up in my recommendations. I watched the wedding debacle and absolutely loved your story time. I would pay you if I ever needed a story that needed to be told. You’re awesome and refreshing and my new favorite vlogger. Can’t wait to binge watch your vlogs.
OMGSH YES! VLOG IT ALL! Told ya, I am a wedding photographer and I LOVE LOVE all this content! I love the way you present your stories etc! Can't wait to see it all! :)
Congrats!! This is such an amazing time!! Stressful but a happy stressful if that makes sense. I'm currently towards the end of my wedding planning. 3 months to go exactly. Enjoy every moment of planning. It's creeping up on me quick
My husband and I got engaged in Disney too (actually 2 years ago today)! We went on our honeymoon there too. They make it so special. Congratulations! Try and savor every moment because as much as the proposal was a blur to you, the whole planning process and wedding goes by just as fast!
Yaassss! Girl he’s a good man to bring you ring shopping with you! My man did that and it’s not weird at all! I think it’s a very smart move on his part to know what you like cuz, you’re right, it’s a big purchase and wants to make sure you’re not looking at that ring every day and sighing in disappointment in what he picked. My man ended up custom making my ring since I’m such an unconventional girl and thought diamonds were just way too cliché! (The Five Year Engagement movie was a big influence on that) so I ended up with a huge ruby instead and I couldn’t love him more for it! Congrats on that engagement! 👏🏻
Congrats on your engagement! I got engaged to my best friend I've known since Kindergarten and so funny I stumbled across your channel because of the wedding drama videos you posted. (that's all I've been watching recently due to wedding planning...) But I 100% identify with the blacking out while being proposed too and I kind of had a hunch like you that it was coming. (actually identify with a LOT in this video our rings even look similar) I am getting marries this June, and the time when it sunk in for me was going band shopping and seeing a ring on his finger. Enjoy this time & I wish you both the best!
I discovered your videos of the wedding bridesmaids & cheat by ex. I enjoy your juicy fun story and my mouth drop so much! I'll make sure to bring some popcorns!
Congratulations!!😍 your ring and back story is beautiful! My husband and i met at 16 been together since 💜💗 this will be our 12 years together..time sure flys! (where 28 now!) Cant wait to see your wedding planing videos!
Congratulations! I also picked out my ring. My Husband and I knew we wanted to get married and had also discussed it many times. It made sense to both of us to have me pick out the ring because it’s a large purchase and there are so many choices. We both barely remember our proposal too because we also got super nervous and teared up. It’s crazy how something you want and kind of expect can make you both so nervous lol
I also "blacked out" during my engagement and don't remember much! We are getting married in a month and a half and it still hasn't set in all the way. Got the dress, the venue, all our loved ones, and I don't think it'll truly set in til the day before or the day of! Congrats and I hope you cherish it all!!
I just got engaged last week in Disney too and your story is identical to ours except ours was In Epcot. I'm so excited to watch your videos. I can't believe how similar our story was and how much we think alike. 💍💞
This makes me so happy because my boyfriend is at basic training right now. he told me before he left he can't wait for the day he bends down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. I'm so excited for y'all!!!
Just subscribed to your channel today actually but I am so excited for you! Congratulations and kisses from Germany... btw I also choose my ring and I think you are right even if you kind of know it’s coming it’s always a surprise
It seems many of us watched this after the horror of the M.O.H./ Bridesmaid story! I'm Glad to hear that your friend will be your M.O.H. for you. Sorry they both have the same lettering. M.O.H. is either Marton of Honor, or Maid of Honor.
You put into words exactly how I felt when my fiancé proposed! We went on vacation at the end of May and that’s when he did it, during a hike. But he was also very anti me packing and he hid it in a rolled up sock. 🤣 But everything being 5 seconds behind, blacking out, and immediately forgetting what just happened was exactly what happened to me! So glad I’m not alone! Haha! Congrats!!!
It’s not weird you choose your own ring 😍 I choose my own engagement ring and I love it even more as we got to experience this together 💍 and he proposed at Disney land Paris 💕 Congratulations to you both 💍❤️
Congratulations!!!! My boyfriend and I have also known each other for like 20 years and I’ve been dreaming about marrying him for so long! I’m so happy for you! Just started following you and super happy I did!
My husband proposed the EXACT same way! Literally the stories are the same down to the ring story (well it’s a tiny different but he didn’t propose with my exact ring). Mine hates pics too so I knew something was up! Congrats girl!
Nope not weird at all! We did the same. We looked at rings 2-3 times together. I picked out a couple rings, narrowed it down to my exact ring and kept my fiancé in check on sticking to/below the budget. Now I absolutely love mine (and my husband 😊) and other friends who thought it was strange now talk about what they would change on their rings because they didn’t want to look ahead of time. 😒 It’s worth doing because you’ll wear it for life.😊
*CONGRATULATIONS!* what a gr8 proposal story, I love elaborate proposals and weddings as long as I don’t have to participate😉. our proposal went like this: we’re on the phone, been together 7yrs (didn’t live together, uber Catholic parents/fam🙄), discussing should we sell both our condos & buy a house after marriage, or just sell one, pay off total mortgage and live in condo. I said “we should just get married now, sell your condo, be mortgage free & save up huge down payment 4 house” he sez “was that a proposal?” I said “sure!”. We called our parents & siblings that night. A close friend of mine is a jeweler, she found a *perfect* vintage (1920s) engagement ring 4 me + hubs got a #sweet deal! (connections lol). I wear the wedding band I inherited frm my grandmother. I bought *his* band frm another jeweler I know, who specializes in LBGTQ jewelry - *huge* variety of men’s bands! After the required 11mos of premarital counseling by our Priest (you haven’t lived till you’ve spent an hour getting counseled by a Priest abt *SEX* 😳) we had an immediate family + our respective *best friends* small Wedding Mass. We sent out formal marriage announcements afterwards - specifically requesting *no gifts* suggesting a charity instead. (we *STILL* got some gifts🤷♀️) We never did buy a house - we’re pretty in love w the whole “no mortgage” thing, and we fit perfectly into my(*OUR*) 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo.🥰 #15yrs *so far, so good* 💖
Congratulations! I blacked out during my proposal too. Luckily my fiance kind of did too so neither of us really know what happened ha. Also the rose gold keds you were wearing are the same shoes I'm wearing on my wedding day!
U won't believe it but I have been subscribed to you since the beginning when I was looking for advice cuz I was going to college and found your channel and haven't seen u since then and can't believe u already graduated and getting married! Wow! Just checked and my first ever comment is still there lol!
Congratulate you on your engagement 💕 you are so lucky to get married to your best friend ❤️ I fully agree that you are with and choose your calling. This is a ring that you will carry the rest of your life 💍 I watched the second video in two parts about these 2 cruel girls. I cried when you said that the bride did not get his bachelor party, that was not the way it was going to be for her even if she got an amazingly nice wedding then she lost part of the preparations for the Big day And I got angry. Wishing you and your future husband cozy engagement time. Remember even the kindest girl can suddenly be Brudzilla 😉
I would have wanted a video much more than photos. Being able to relive it and pay more attention to everything going on during the moment would be so awesome.
A video would be cool too, but I'm just glad my fiancé thought to get one of the Disney photographers so the pictures were great quality! It all happened pretty fast so I don't think anyone had time to react and we were alone there, so we didn't have friends ready to film. It's okay though, we're going to have a videographer at the wedding to capture everything! :-)
Came here from the wedding horror story. I enjoyed the story but also felt awful for all of you for going through all of that. I am 44. This December is my 20th anniversary. Weddings absolutely bring out the best and worst in people. I dont think there has ever been a wedding that didnt have some drama - some more than others. I hope, for you, people don't catch you off guard with their behavior. For me, it was the final straw in cutting off a life ling friend who is a pathological liar - she tried to pull so much crap I could never write it here. My maid of honor planned my very small and simple shower herself and each girl was to pay her $$, and show up to help on the day of - only half the party ever paid the $75 that was their share. I had to micro manage 5 out of 7 girls. My cousin (whose wedding I spent every penny I had for, I wore a dress that made me look as atrocious as I'd ever looked, I was the only one helping but she treated me like I wasn't even there and on and on) backed out of my wedding because we weren't doing plus ones for people who werent in established relationships- she started dating a guy 3 months before the wedding and thought he should be invited (not one person in our family had even met him yet) I told her that if someone RSVP'd that they couldnt come, they said he could come. Because he didnt get invited immediately (2 weeks later he wouldve been) she backed out. On and on. Even the people we believe will be the best in a wedding party go crazy. It was insane. I hope, for your sake, it all goes smoothly and beautifully!!!! Congratulations on your engagement.
So sorry you had to go through the drama as well! I agree, it's very hard to avoid. I'm hoping to keep my wedding as calm as possible, and I made sure my bridesmaids were my oldest friends and my siblings haha, so hopefully that works! Thank you so much!
@@TheNightOwl1212 I hope it does. All but 1 of mine were oldest friends and family, sadly it takes just 1 bad apple to spoil the whole shabang. I truly hope you are one of the rare ones. I do have to say, aside from some drama with my liar friend, my wedding day was perfect. I gave the bridesmaids and groomsmen all 1-2 very easy and specific jobs and exactly when they needed to be done on the day which saved me worrying about who was doing what and I knew it would all get done - literally the simplest things like 1 guy had to light the unity candles, two had to hand out sparklers to guests as they left the church, two had to light the sparklers before we walked out etc... it made it all perfect and I didnt ask for help until the day of so everyone was eager to please. I do have to say, aside from very very wealthy families, I have never been in or involved in a wedding where the bridesmaids didnt just make the choice to either do their own hair or to pay for it, I understand if the bride has a vision for styles, but it would definitely cut down on stress not to make demands about that. All my girls and I drove 45 minutes to my salon together and everyone but 1 decided to pay for their hair and we all had an amazing time together at the salon including the girl who did her own hair. I told them to do their hair however they wanted because I felt like they were already wearing my picks so some personality was fine with me and it worked out beautifully. I give one piece of advice to every and any bride I encounter so I will share it with you - hope that's ok. What I did was I aimed to have every single detail worked through, gone over, assigned by the week before. At the rehearsal I went over each thing with each person and answered any questions about their assignments (I emailed each person their assignment previously but wanted to be double sure they remenbere and understood) and made sure everyone was clear. The minute we left the church to go to the rehearsal dinner I didnt have to think about another thing aside from getting ready and getting married. It made my night before and day of 100% stress free, I remember so much more of my wedding than any other bride I know because I didnt worry about anything because I had entrusted my people and I wanted to go through that night and day the way it was meant to be - all love and fun and 100% enjoyment. It was just that. I know so many brides who leave things to the last minute, have to worry anout tiny details the morning of or during and they always say how it was all a blur and they barely remember it a week later. Every year, I get to think about the day before and day and remember what I was doing with my girls, then the wedding (of course not just once a year but i make a point of it for our anniversary). After nearly 20 years some details have gotten foggy but I still remember so much and that is incredibly special. It wasnt all perfect. The florist didn't do my flowers how I wanted AT ALL and the photographer gave us some issues but by that point I could process small disappointments so much better because I wasnt a lunatic. In the end I wouldve liked those things not to have happened, but no one knew but me. I cannot tell you how many people told me that they had never seen a bride so happy and carefree at their wedding, how it was the best wedding they'd ever been to because of how calm it all was. I danced every dance and talked to everyone and never had a moment of stress. So it is the best advice I could give anyone. Better than who you pick, second only to marrying the right person lol. Be prepared, obsess, think it all through and assign what you might do yourself the day of... have the time of your life stress free and remember every moment!!! I wish you all the best in your planning and in your marriage!!!!
Congratulations it’s so exciting btw the wedding day is also a black out if I didn’t have pictures I wouldn’t remember anything not even what my cake or room was like
Better than my proposal my fiance practically screaed "marry me" because he was so nervous. Definitely memorable and i wet myself laughing about all the hints throughout the night. I wouldn't change a thing. Congratulations! Took a good 2 weeks to sink in for me!
Omg I love this!! Thank you so much, it's definitely more real now that we've booked our venue but I'm still so overwhelmed haha. I'm going to make some wedding videos so stay turned for that if you're interested! :-)
Not weird, my man said the same thing so that night I emailed him the exact ring I want and band! Beautiful story! I am also a rose gold person, its gorgeous.
I overheard my fiancé tell his little brother while we were visiting his family that in a few weeks he was gonna propose. I was supposed to be asleep 😂😂
Congratulations!! Happy for you both, your ring is GORGEOUS! I picked out my engagement ring with my husband too! BTW, you might want to make sure Mindy & Layla doesn't gang up and pitch up to your wedding to ruin it. Get a restraining order against them, something feels like they are already in the comments below trolling you..
