 A few weeks ago, we asked our Blush Brides and followers to share their engagement stories with us! Who doesn’t love a good engagement story?! We love all the interaction our babes have with us, and we wanted to share these stories because we loved them so much and obviously love should always be shared! A huge congratulations to all the newly engaged couples, we are so incredibly thankful that we could be a part of your special day when you come to Blush at the Reading Bridal District to choose your dream gown.

 

“My Fiancé proposed on the beach at Sarasota, Florida in front of my entire family. We got engaged in June of 2019 and were supposed to get married this coming Saturday (August 1st),but we postponed due to the pandemic. We have our wedding rescheduled for July 17th, 2021.” –Kourtni

 

“We had plans to go to a nice dinner with his side of the family a few days before Christmas. Before we left for dinner, Chris grabbed a present from under the tree and got down on one knee. After the proposal, I found out my family had been hiding in the basement the entire time. He flew my parents in from Phoenix and my sister and Brother-in-law from Orlando so they could be there to celebrate with us. We hada party bus take us all to a dinner with a view of the city and out for drinks after. He knows how much I miss my family and how special it was to have them there. He did so well!” –Lindsey

 

“Devin proposed in Paris in front of the Louvre! He set up a photographer to capture the whole thing!” –Melissa

 

 “He surprised me at the kickboxing gym where we met. One of the first things I ever said to him was that I liked his last name, to which he said he’d marry me for it. Fast forward 1 year later and I was saying yes to him as he got down on one knee in the place where it all began!” - Mackenzie

 

 

“My fiancé proposed tome on the dock behind his family cabin in Michigan. He took me on an all day adventure to sight see all of his favorite spots. Our families decided to stay behind and, unknowingly to me, decorated the dock the entire day. We came back that evening and walked me down to the dock. They had Gravity by John Mayer playing, which was the first song we ever danced to together. My sister took all of our beautiful photos! It was a fairy tale that I’ll never forget.”–Lexi

 

 

“He asked at the OmniGrove Park Inn in Asheville, North Carolina. We went with some friends to seethe Christmas tree display and The National Gingerbread House competition.Hiking and the mountains are two of our favorite things and you can’t see in the photo but there was a gorgeous backdrop of some mountains directly behind us as he proposed. We dated for 12 years (high school sweethearts) before he put a ring on it!” –Taylor

 

“He surprised me with the proposal at the end of our family photo shoot. I was so shocked I stepped backwards and almost fell off the foot bridge!” –Jaime

 

 “He proposed at Sitwells, where we had our first date. The cashier said AWWW! THAT’S ADORABLE!Congrats you guys, that’ll be $14.50 whenever you’re ready!”

On 11.17.19, he took me to myf avorite two spots in Cincinnati, Washington Park and Music Hall. As we approached Music Hall he gently tapped me on my shoulder, got down on one knew,and asked me to be his wife. I couldn’t have asked for a better moment.” –Liz

 

“My husband proposed to me the day after I graduated with my masters degree from UC. He popped the question at Kings Island at Winter Fest because he knows it is one of my favorite places and all of this was right before my birthday (Christmas Eve).We got married June 14 of this year. We were supposed to be married at Rhinegeist but our backyard intimate wedding was better than anything we could have planned or dreamed.” – Livvy

 “We got engaged amonth after our little girl was born in 2017. He wanted so bad to include all my family and his. He set up a scavenger hunt that lead me to places important to us. I ended up in the hospital room of where my mom was having her chemo treatment. All just so she could be part of the moment. We are getting married September 5, 2020!” – Abigail

 

 

“We went to Christmas in the Village in Waynesville with my family, a tradition that I’ve done since I was a little girl. We went on a horse and carriage ride and when we got off,I looked up and saw all my friends appear out of nowhere and then he got down on one knee! (He kept the ring in his boot so I wouldn’t see the box in hispocket!) He definitely gave me a Hallmark Christmas movie dream proposal!” –Jessica

 

 

“My great grandma and I had an inside joke since I was little that unless I got proposed to in front of the Eiffel Tower, I was saying no. My husband never got to meet my sweet angel of a grandma. My cousin told him about our inside joke (and I didn’t know that), next thing I know, we are on our way to Paris and he proposed on our oneyear anniversary, and coming home with a fiancé! He had every detail down to the final T! A photographer, the ring box, and an engagement copilot shirt. And to top it all off, I was wearing my great grandmas pearls when I got engaged soit was like she was there with me.” –Cori

 

"He proposed to me on my birthday! We had plans to go to Bark in the Park at the Reds stadium because my best friend was in town for my birthday, and we wanted to do something where we could bring our dogs. They had a little photo shoot and I turned around and he was on one knee while two of our friends took photos. My childhood bestfriend got to be there and one of my dogs!! And I got to see my other bestfriend directly after at the game. We get married THIS Saturday!” – Alicia

 

 

“My husband LOVES Christmas so much so that we went to go look at lights on December 30th the first winter we were together. He said that’s when he knew I was the love of his life because I went to go see Christmas lights with him even after Christmas had passed. He brought me back to where we went to see the lights and got down on one knee saying that this is where he knew we’d be together forever. He then surprised me with dinner with all of our family at the place we had our first date. It was the best day down memory lane.” – Toni
