I'm Engaged !!!

As you may know I recently got engaged at Walt Disney World! James proposed to me on January 15 2020 in Animal Kingdom in front of Expedition Everest. It is one of my favorite spots at Walt Disney. When he got down on his knee, I knew what was coming and as you can see from the photos I was so overjoyed. I obviously said YES! (Photos down below) Then the sweetest cast member gave us buttons. Then we went and rode Expedition Everest. I plan on doing a few more blog posts about me and James, as Y'all seem to love all my relationship stuff, and share updates.

I wanna answer some questions that I have been asked.



Did you know it was coming?


Yes and no, me and James have talked about getting married so many times, we have been dating 2 years and I have known I wanted to marry him for a long time. He is the perfect man for me and we have been through so much together. I thought he would propose at Disney because it is a place we both love and have made so memories at.



When's the wedding?


No idea, LOL. We have our engagement party next month down south, and while we are down south we will be discussing some details with my parents.



Why did he do it there (Everest at Animal Kingdom) and not in front of the Castle (Magic Kingdom)?


My mom asked this first, and he told her that he wanted to do it somewhere different from everyone else. Expedition Everest is one of my favorite rides and spots in the parks. We did get some cute photos in front of the castle because duh. But the proposal was wonderful and I wouldn't change a thing.



How did you celebrate?

Well we spent 4 days at Disney, and that night we went to one of my favorite restaurants on Disney property, Sebastian's at the Caribbean Beach Resort. It was wonderful. We also had a special romantic dinner each night, so it lasted all 3 nights. The second night was the Boat House at Disney Springs. It was AMAZING, and the third night was at Terralina also at Disney Spring but I was not a fan of this one. I also got to pick out an engagement gift which was a new bag from Kate Spade.
