The engagement
Ah the engagement story. It's a good one.
Billy told his sister Becca to tell Annie that she got two gift cards to MiniLuxe nail salon on Newbury Street. So on March 21st, 2014 Annie was happy to accompany Becca to the salon for what she thought was just a normal mani/pedi date. Turns out Billy had secretly purchased the gift cards and set up the appointment.
When Annie got home, Billy was ready at the door all dressed up and Annie immediately knew. Billy brought Annie to the couch where he began to play a video he had created. One of Billy's passions is photography, and so all of Annie and Billy's trips, experiences and memories are well-documented. Annie (and Billy) sobbed through the whole eight minute incredibly sweet and meaningful video. At the end, Billy got down on one knee, proposed with a GORGEOUS ring and Annie squealed, "Yes!"
There were flowers on the table and the champagne was popped as Annie quickly called her family and closest friends. Little did she know the night had just begun! Billy told her to pack a bag because they were headed out for the evening. Annie scrambled to find a suitable dress, however Billy had that covered as well. He bought the same elegant black dress in two different sizes for the occasion. He told her to put on the one that fit and the two excitedly jumped into a town car.
The car pulled up to the Four Seasons where they would be staying for the night. The hotel staff knew they were coming and had chocolate covered strawberries set up. Billy's thoughtful co-workers also sent a bottle of champagne. They went out to dinner at No. 9 Park where they again were greeted with champagne.
They woke up the next morning still reeling from the night's events. They went down to the spa and sat in the whirlpool where staff brought them mint towels, and fresh fruit.
It was a magical weekend.
Oh, and Billy took a special trip to Weymouth months beforehand to get the approval from her parents. They also, of course, said yes.
