well me and my husband to be in three weeks got engaged while on a vacation in new york city in june 2011. my mom was working there temporarily, we are from idaho. he some what spoiled the surprise by telling me he would do it while we were in new york because we had talked about getting engaged and waiting a year to get married. well we were staying in Schenectady and took one of our maynt trips to nyc and i saw him leave the ring in his duffel bag so i didnt expect it to happen this night. well we went shopping and goofed around all day and jordan kepy talking about going to the top of the empire state building. that night there was absolutely 0 visibility at the top of the building so everyone told us its the worse night to go up. but jordan just wanted to go to the top this night for reasons ...read morei didnt know. well there was absolutely no line, thank god, cause this building looked equiped for hours and hours or waiting. there were very few people on top of the building. we were just looking over the edge (into fog only) and he started whispering to me how much he loved me and how he knows im the one he wants to spend his life with and i could sense how nervous he was. and then he dropped down on one knee and pulled out my gorgeous ring and asked will you marry me? and the few families up there applaused us and gave us our first congratulations. on the way down everyone who worked there already knew so i heard it a million times on the way out! and after some family talked us into it we are now being married on 09/23/2011 instead of waiting a whole year:)
