My boyfriend finally made a proposal, we are engaged! I can't believe I am someone' fiancée! We are planning a wedding for December and are going to have a beautiful reception party at a hotel in Greenwich. I’ve already chosen my bridesmaids and he has decided that his brother will be his best man. I don't think I'll wear a veil on the big day, maybe a tiara instead. We still need to choose our wedding rings but we've got plenty of time. I'd like us to have matching ones. We are booking a short honeymoon to Venice which is a place neither of us has been but that we have always wanted to go to. How romantic! On our wedding day, nothing will be more important than the bride and groom!
