My boyfriend and I really don't go out to eat much, except for special occasions, so I thought it was odd that he asked me out lunch that morning because he wanted to "de-stress from work" after hearing of a great Italian place from a co-worker.
Coincidentally my friend "recommended" the same Italian place a couple weeks prior because she had a "coupon that was soon to expire". My response "oh my gosh - what are the chances - my bf's co-worker recommended it, and you recommended it and during the same weekend - It is fate". Little did I know, he was working with my co-worker to get me to the Port Credit area (where we had our first kiss) but had to do so without looking suspicious, and he knew my frugal Asian ways would jump at the opportunity of a "coupon deal".
During lunch, he went to the restroom quite a few times, and kept checking his phone. He wore his contacts that Sunday morning, and looked more polished than usual. I asked him about it, and he said he just went to the gym. In hind-sight, I should have thought things were different that day, but hindsight bias is always 20/20.
After lunch, it was a beautiful day and he suggested we walk along the boardwalk. At the end of the boardwalk he takes my hand, and on bended knee says "I want to make sure I do this right and I should have done this long time ago" - and promises that he would spend the rest of his life making me happy, if I would like to spend it with him. I think my reaction says it all in the mini video. Turns out that my fiancé had been planning this for weeks, and was constantly going to the restroom to text his friend, who he had staked out with a camera to capture our romantic proposal. We then did a mini photo shoot on the spot to celebrate. Of course I couldn't wait to share the news with my friends and family (who gave their blessing to him months ago). It was a wonderful surprise - and the wedding planning has been a wonderful experience that has brought us even closer together.

Dear Best for Bride,
I wanted to thank you so very much for the beautiful dress I purchased from you this past summer from the Etobicoke store! Everyone who assisted me with my dress were extremely kind and helpful, especially the seamstress who helped me with my fitting! I am so glad that I found your website online, and I recommend you to everyone! I just wanted to share some photos from my special day, which took place August 7th 2009 in Victoria BC, and also from my trash the dress sesh that took place the following day (thats right! I got to wear my dress twice!) My dress was from the Mori Lee collection, style 6305.
Thank you all again,
Annette McLean (formerly Zwambag)

Good Evening Olga,
I wanted to send you some photos from the wedding 3 weeks ago. We had a fun, relaxed day and I wasn't the only one that LOVED my dress, I received many compliments. My mother mentioned that there were a few ladies who just loved, loved it. Thank you for your help with getting the dress sooner then I expected and you promised me, what a stress relief to have it in hand. And the fabric that you provided that matched my dress made a beautiful dress for my flower girl.
Thank you again for all your help, I truly appreciate it!
