Still MORE!!!
After a lingering kiss goodnight, Amanda entered the house - still floating on a cloud of joy and wonder -- but wait! There on the dinning room table was still more! Another dozen roses, a photo taken as Tim proposed (and rushed to a one hour printer), lit candles, bridal magazines, rose petals and a precious necklace. When Tim was 13 years hold, he was given a precious gold key necklace to represent fidelity and chastity. He's now given that to the woman with whom he intends to spend his life.
Just the Beginning.
What Amanda didn't know when she stepped into the limo was that the excitement was just beginning. Tim had a whole evenng of wonder planned for her.
A dozen roses and and four-foot tall pink teddy bear greated Amanda in the limo. When they sat down at their especially reserved table in a private room, Amanda found waiting for her at their table, framed poetry (written by Tim), a personalized menu and champagn flutes etched with their names, the date and scripture verse. The menu had their names, the date and the words "The proposal is only the beginning..." engraved at the top. Her entree was delived with a gift - saphire earrings wrapped in special wrapping paper covered with their photos. When dessert arrived an other gift was delivered, a beautifully bound wedding planner and the names Tim & Amanda written in rich dark chocolate around the edge of her plate. But the evening wasn't over yet!
