After meeting at a mutual friend's birthday party, Susan's 70s disco dress caught Abe's attention in the classey surroundings of elm park. As you can see from the date of the first date, it took quite a long time for Susan to notice Abe.
The first "official" date was at a small Italian restaurant on a cobbled side street of London. The giant prawns came with the heads on, and in an attempt at chivalry Abe went to cut the heads off for Susan. We say attempted because what actually happened was half the wall was covered in prawns, and he spent the rest of the night keeping a low profile.
Target: Susan Mangan.
Location: Icacos Island, Puerto Rico.
Mission: Propose.
Abe planned to propose in Puerto Rico under the Sun and on top of the sand. As is usual with these sort of events, the plan didn't go as expected but was still a great memory. Abe sent the ring directly to the hotel, and after a fair few mentions to the hotel staff to keep the delivery to themselves once it arrives, they called Susan to say the package arrived. Abe had to quickly make up a story about buying hearing aids and sending them to the hotel.
Susan felt she was onto something after catching wind of the term "Operation Sandles". The topic of is it a proposal came up. Refusing to give anythng away, Abe sat through a lengthy lecture about settling down and life plans while saying there is no rush to grow up.
We're here. At Icacos. In trying to get the ring off the boat without getting it wet, Abe ran ahead to do some acrobats in the water. The chosen location was 200 feet away, where Abe would get down on one knee... that is if Susan would ever just listen and walk this way! After admiring the sceneray, Susan turned round to see Abe on one knee. The lack of cooperation caused a bit of confusion, and the assigned photographer (the best man) missed the moment! Luckily a complete stranger saw what was happening and managed to get a few pictures for us! Thank you random stranger!
Who has the rings? Who is that on the altar? Who's going to make jokes at the groom's expense? The bridal party is here, ready to answer all those questions on the day!
