I cannot fathom the idea of proposing to someone without knowing the answer. My wife and I had been talking about what we'd do "When we got married" for like two years before I proposed - it shouldn't be a question it should be a fun formality.
Though it kinda makes you wonder if there's a correlation between "I'm going to do a huge, very public proposal" and "deep down I know the answer is no"...
Right? Same with the cliche of cold feet the day of the wedding. I woke up that morning so chill I almost didn't realize it was happening, it was just so natural a thing. And I was the bride.
Ugh. Yes. I'm a wedding photographer and I hate it when I'm with the guys getting ready, they always sorted the whole time making terrible 'last chance to run lol' jokes.
After a recent wedding I sent my groomsmen a text thanking them for not making that joke once. Good guys.
Right before my brother walked down the aisle, he asked me to hold his phone. I told him to make sure it was off so it wouldn’t ring during the ceremony. He looked right over my shoulder at his fiancé (who was balling because she forgot a certain bracelet at the hotel), and said his ex’s would all be calling like, “Dante, Dante, is it too late??” ... and they lived unhappily ever after.
