Your most memorable moment!!!!

[AGC5445]

congrats

Like many others here I have many very magical moments, some alone at WDW, others with my kids but the most recient and one of the nearest and dearest to my heart happened just this past Monday. Yes, Halloween. My girl friend and I along with our (combined) six kids and her father and step mother arrived for MNSSHP just at 7:00 pm. I insisted that we take the kids to the Bell's fairytale garden at the edge of tomorrowland. My GF did not really understand why I was so insistant that we do this. I held my ground to her dismay and off we went. We got there about 10 min. after it started, the kids found a place to sit and I rummaged through the camera bag for a couple of boxes I had smuggled on the trip. I then told her father to send her up the hill towards the wishing well near the Castle. I had just enough time to place one of the boxes on the Wishing Well. I showed her the box and told her to open it. Inside were two 2005 pennies and a folded up copy of a poem I had written her for Valentines day that had a code at the bottem telling her when I was going to propose to her. She had not been able to figure out the code when I had given it to her on V-day. This copy had the un-coded message at the bottom. The other side said "Make a wish". I told her to use one penny for the wish and the other for the memory.

She stood at the Wishing Well for a moment, made her wish and threw in the penny. When she turned, we kissed, embraced and I began to sing her a verse from Phantom of the Opera (by the way, she dressed as Christine Dia and I as the Phantom for MNNSHP) When I finished singing, I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me. She said yes and we embraced and kissed some more. We then heard the applause and congratulations from some people that were passing by.

We went back the next day and had her dad and step-mom take some pictures of us at the Wishing Well.

She told me after we got home that even though we had been to WDW with our former spouses, on this visit we made WDW ours.

congrats, i am happy for you, but i must tell you something- i read your story with horror because we went to Fantasmic 2 years ago and as we were waiting, a guy asked his girlfriend to marry him, she said "no". that is one reason i will never propose in public, but i'm glad it worked out for you.

my most memorable moment is new years 2003, we are at EPCOT and they have Illuminations at midnight. the show was expanded and there are not words to descibe it. it was one of the most amazing ways to ring in the new year.

OMG!!!! We saw you that night! We were at MK for MNSSHP last Monday. We were with my daughter's Best Friend and her Mother and it was Me and my daughter. I was a saloon girl, my Daughter was a vampire, her Best friend was Tinkerbell, and her mom was a witch.

My daughter is a huge Phantom fan.:animwink: She kept seeing the same Phantom and Christine throughout the park. When I read her this post last night, she started singing Phantom songs like crazy.:hammer: It was quite a sight. lol..:lol:​

We hope that ya'll have a wonderful wedding and that ya'll live happily ever after...Congradulations!:sohappy:

Thank you. Everyone here at our house seems to be addicted to the Phantom as well. My two youngest children are always singing the songs too. I guess I cant blame them. They learned them from me and my Fiance playing the cds in the car all the time!

Thank you. I would not have proposed in public if I had not been sure of the answer. I have read some of those stories in the proposal threads here on this forum so I was aware of that possibility. I can not imagine how painful it must of been for the guy you saw. I feel bad for him just hearing about it.

Oh, and my mother getting her picture taken with Aurora was great too. Sleeping Beauty's be her favorite since she was a child.

That poor guy! I feel so bad for him. I think I have to agree with not asking in public unless you know the answer will be yes. Poor guy!

Proposing to my wife after the fireworks at Narcoossee's! Great time, Mickey gave us champagne! The entire place clapped and cheered. I think everyone who was in the restaurant came over to congratulate us!

Now my wife has a reason to go back to the parks! She's not a WDW nut like me!

It is amazing how many people propose at the parks. Although it is a extemely romantic place after all.

I actually want to propose at disney although I'm getting alittle ahead of myself concidering I'm still single wave: to any single southeastern WI girls :animwink: )

My idea was to spend the day at Epcot, and enjoy a romantic dinner at one of the many restaurants in the World Showcase. We would then enjoy illuminations from the private boat I would charter earlier and find the opportune time to propose. Maybe a little more standard than some, but a decent idea none the less I believe.
