I wouldn't have had a problem with that. but her father had JUST gotten elected city councilman and the people in that town wouldn't not have appreciated a public ceremony.
we had over 1000 people attend the wedding.
Maybe the thought of how much the ring cost him brings painful memories...so he's attempting to repress it. lol!
Date was June 15th, her birthday, We were at the museum in the live exotic butterfly exhibit. Sitting on a rock in the middle of the room surrounded by flitting butterflies I asked her. Wedding was Feb 14th. Those should be fairly easy to remember.
- Asked her if she wanted to get married November '77
- She picked out setting at JB Robinson Jewelers.
- I later haggled for price of stone.
- If I had it to do over I'd get a bigger, less perfect stone.
- Gave her ring on Christmas '77, which shocked her mother, since she was 17 and I was 19.
- If I had it to do over, I'd ask permission from her parents to marry her.
- Married in garden of the Kirtland Temple on July 7th, 1978
Are you kidding?
I remember everything.
Man, that's one of the most important things that has happened in my life.
How can you not remember when and how you proposed?
Better yet: how can you not remember spending thousands and thousands of dollars on a ring?
Must be painful for some of these guys here to forget the whole "ordeal"
I don't remember the proposal date but I certainly remember the details of my proposal and the whole process of getting an engagement ring. I've been married since '98 so maybe marriage Alzheimers hasn't quite set in yet.

At the time I figured, we're getting married, no matter what our parents say. Still rebellious I guess. The truth is, you're marrying the whole family, so it's best to start off on the right foot. Hell, I've got a 17 year old son now, and I can't begin to imagine him being engaged! I bet her mom almost fainted when she showed her the ring. :Q
engaged 27 jan 2001, quebec city, quebec, on the banks of the river down in the old city. i could show you the spot. completely surprised her because she didn't think i knew her ring size(which was true) but she didn't know that the place i got the ring resized free of charge.
married 24 nov 2001, reception in tarrytown, ny at abigail kirsch at tappan hill.

LOL! Engaged August 11, 2000. (Yes, today is Aug 11, and I did remember before I saw this thread.)
I don't remember the exact date, but I do remember where I proposed to my ex-wife. It was within a few days of her birthday, which I also forgot, so I used to get in trouble for mixing the two dates up.
You can count me as one who remembers if you want.

That's one of the most romantic things I've ever read (the part about the flowers).
For how long have you been married?hehehe. I suggested that too, but he told me that's not the case. *shrug*Originally posted by: Wolverine27
