My boyfriend and I have decided to announce our engagement . To make this official, tomorrow we are going shopping for matching engagement rings.
We aren't too sure when the big day will be, but we suspect it will be within the next 2-3 years. Why so far away? Money!!! We want to pay for the wedding ourselves. We have had the wedding planned out for the past 3 years and we know approximately how much it will cost. It's not nearly as much as many weddings, and it's not as glamorous as many weddings. We want it to take place at a campsite, among nature, a river, bonfire, etc. The reception and the wedding will all take place there and people can spend the night at the campground. There will be swimming and drinking and lots of food. We want our friends to be a part of the wedding. Some, who are in bands will perform, Jason and I will put together a bunch of mixed CD's and all we need is for someone to change the disks every once and awhile. It will be very simple, but the kind of wedding where everyone feels comfortable. We don't want people to dress up...of course I know everyone will. I want to wear a Victorian wedding gown and Jason will wear a Victorian tuxedo. There is a place that sells these as costumes just across the street!!! lol.
Anyway, so I just wanted to officially announce our engagement and I'll show you all pictures of the rings when we get them!
