Proposal at Ren Faire.

[Mouse]

awww... and I got proposed to while we were flossing...


<--- JEALOUS!!!


sounds fabulous though! keep us posted!

THank you so much Bellevivre..but you know, now I have to act this out while flossing..just to here what surprised and the word yes sounds like with flossing between your teeth and hands in your mouth. And Thank YOU Jinglebum as well. Didn't think I was to leave you out. It's only if it goes as planned and I can keep myself disciplined. I am running ideas by here on the sly, chalking them up as ideas I am giving to my best friend for his anniversary, as his anniversary falls on Opening Weekend...every year. Can't say as I didn't enjoy spending my opening weekend watching him get married, but I knew there was ale a flowing and turkey legs to be had elsewhere. I did get very drunk and tie the head of the whole boar we roasted for his ren wedding to the hood of his car. Riot. I can only hope my wedding is half as good. And I hope some of you will be present, if not at least around when I pull this off. Ever seen a Mouse sweat bullets? Here's to next year and careful planning.

Its Captain Liam.. and I know him very well. In fact, he's one of my best friends. Outside of faire we travel the country together playing paintball.... he's a riot.

Anyway... Im positive that he and Madam Nina would be thrilled to help you out. Shoot me a PM and I'll give you my personal email and contact information so i can get you in touch with him... easiest thing would be to arrange a meeting between you guys at one of the 3 remaining weekends if you're planning to attend. He's obvioulsy very busy between the two shops but he always finds time to hang out with us for a bite or a drink.

He's a GREAT guy and would no doubt love the idea.

Thank you so much. I always figured him for a romantic at heart, though he appears kinda gruff. Now, it's Liam. Why the heck have peple been calling him Leo all these years?!

i have no idea... im assuming we're talking about the same guy, the bald'ish guy with the black goat'ee .. the one that owns pirates cove and does the auctions. ..  Tha'td be Liam.. short for William... hehe

never heard him called Leo... its sounds close i guess.

Let's see we can also call him Capt. Seawinkle.

Also if you need any more Pirates let me know I think I know a few.

My husband will probably beat me senseless for saying this, but I'm so jealous of your thought and planning right now that I feel like throwing bricks at my husband's head LOL.

*overinflated ego* Yes, I am the beesknees. Wonder how long I can keep this up before someone comes along with a pin and lets my air out...it's usually Mistress Mouse. She keeps my feet on the ground...with staples.

[Blue66669]

And glue???

Just watch out for the E6000, it burns when you use too much on your skin...

[Mouse]

Not glue..can slip out of my shoes that way. Industrial staples. Or a nail gun. The kind that uses a .45 bullet.

Mouse, I was able to pull of a pretty good surprise proposal at faire.  My wild imagination had me doing it from the arena, but the faire staff wasn't gonna go for that, so I was suppressed to the globe theatre.  Only a couple of our friends knew about it in order to get everyone there, and my new wife was completely oblivious.  As it turns out, if a man is able to keep that good of a secret, he is forever kept under a watchful eye.  Little did I know (o;

Good luck on your proposal, and one bit of advise, don't let the preparation distract you from putting the right words together like it did me.  After all of my planning, and getting us on stage, the only thing I could get to come out of my mouth was "You've waited for this for a long time - Will you marry me".  Eh, kinda short an sweet an to the point - She still claims to this day that she didn't actually hear anything I said because she was in shock.

[Mouse]

I understand Kilted...I rehearsed something that is so grand and verbose and knee melting in my head..and for the most part, it usually is, dripping with sap and shellacked with so much sacrine it hurts the teeth to think about it..but it comes out as *Ghmlkwierj. Perty lady. You is loved. *shakes head* But luckily, Mistress Mouse has taken to rolling her eyes at my obviously cute failing and shortcoming that I know she will forgive me if I fall on my face on last time as her boyfriend, as long as I rise again as her fiancee'. As Oscar Wilde said, "If we men married the women we deserved, we would have a very hard time of it." Here's to all the women in us men's life who are obviously more than we deserve, and by the gods are we are lucky. And love them all the more for it. *see, i already have a wedding toast all set up.*

I think it might be kinda fun that if you go with the flowers during the parade thing, hand the empty vase to her before the parade and just tell her she'll need it, but don't tell her more than that, then your r/f friends can just put the flowers straight into her vase. I think it'd add a slight magical element to the scene. Then you can go the rest of the day pretending that was the only surprise for her. She'll be so thrilled to have had that, she won't see the other coming. That way if she knows you really well and you're acting slightly nervous or anything, the whole flowers during the parade will mask the greater event of the day.

[Mouse]

That was the plan *looks around*...now that you mention it. Nah. I had the idea of the flowers first when it was mentioned, but the vase is bloody brilliant. SHe is easily thrown off by stuff like that. Plus, she won't expect a thing. Sadly, she is of the mind that I am not the marrying type...I really am. But I make jokes about stuff I like. It's my ultimate form of respect for something in some cases. But, if it works in my favour and keeps her off my scent. why yes, I will embrace it. The next year shall be exciting indeed. Keep these ideas coming. This thing gets more and more polished as it goes.

if you can afford it, I recommend the TRF wedding packages. My wife and I got married out there, and it went perfectly. We had the top-of-the-line package, so it was more expensive than most, but after seeing the chaotic nightmare of friends and familymembers' weddings, we're glad we did it

As for proposal, nothing says "I love you and am insane, but cute" like dressing a ferret up in a little suit jacket and tying the ring around it's neck (LOOSELY!) and popping the question to her with a wee lil ferret footman helping

Precisely why my wife and I skipped town and got married in Scotland!

[Mouse]

KILTED. I never was able to come and see you at Procrastination. I apologize sir.
