What to Do After The Wedding - Tips and Advice ...

Congratulations on your wedding! Was it a New York wedding? A destination wedding? Was it held on a rooftop like Tribeca 360 modern space event, Midtown Loft, or Gary's Loft, or did you say your I Do's in St. Patrick's Cathedral and had a reception at the Park Plaza or the Regis Hotel? Maybe it was at Oheka Castle, or by the beach or water like Peconic Bay Yacht Club, or Old Field Club in Long Island? Regardless of where it was held, I'm sure everything was beautiful, and all the wedding planning leading up to the big day was all worth it. After saying your vows and dancing the night away, it's natural to take some time to enjoy married life - yes, you're married! - and soak in wedding bliss.

Proposal in Grand Central's Whispering Gallery E + N

2012-05-17EugeneNicoleEngaged-181.jpg

A few weeks ago, I was asked to take part in a secret mission...Now I'm all about secrecy and keeping everything in the "DL" (is that how you say it these days?) and I pride myself in being great at keeping secrets. I'm so good at keeping secrets that I tend to forget what the secret is all about until someone brings it up! Yup, my brain is Fort Knox except I don't know where the key would be after awhile :-). In any case, I was very excited to know that the secret mission had to do with a surprise proposal! Love proposals and love being a co-conspirator! So about our couple, Eugene and Nicole met while working in an Apple store years ago and they have been inseparable since. How cute is that? First working in an Apple store (awesome in itself) then being able to flirt with the cute guy/girl you see almost everyday (that would make sure you're never late going to work!), then going out with said cute guy/girl :-).  Well, after finishing school and finishing law school, Eugene thought it was time to start the next chapter of his life with the only person he could ever imagine spending his life with, and that was Nicole. He definitely wanted to do the proposal at the Whispering Gallery in Grand Central Station. For those who never heard of the area, it is located just outside The Oyster Bar downstairs. When two people stand at the opposite end, you can really hear them speak or whisper as if they were right next to you! I tried it with Eugene right before Nicole showed up to make sure the legend was true :-D. In order to get Nicole to the area, Eugene pretended they were meeting people for dinner at the Oyster Bar. Once she showed up, he mentioned he wanted to try something...and the rest was history. You can see from the pictures the progress of the proposal and let me just say it was one of the best proposal I have seen. As I was taking pictures I was tearing up and made myself stop because I needed to see what I was taking pictures of and make sure everything was in focus!

Congratulations Eugene and Nicole, you two are going to be very happy together I am sure of it and here's to a new adventure!

The location....

The wait....

The whisper...

The realization.

The response...

The reply...which was "YES!"The reality...The tears of joy...The love...The victory...

The beginning...The ring...The "I still can't believe this is happening" look... The "I can't stop myself from smiling"
