During our wonderful holiday to Limone, Lake Garda, Italy. I proposed to my wonderful girlfriend Ellie! While on a steep walk up towards the mountainous region of Limone we paused to observe the valley and the lake below alongside a stream, I knelt down on bended knee and asked ‘Will you marry me, sweetheart?’ to an instant reply of ‘Of course I will’.
A surrogate ring was presented from my pocket, an earlier purchase from our day trip to Malcesine. After a glass of wine in the nearby restaurant and a stroll into town, found us at the jewellers and discussing the potential candidates.
Celebrations ensued with plenty of bubbly wine and wonderful food at the ‘Gemma’, a fantastic restaurant on the edge of Lake Garda.
Upon our return our respective families are over the moon!
