Join me in the most romantic city in the world: Paris. Destiny weaves its magic and love dances on every street corner. As we began our day piling into our tiny car, Ashlee and Calvin were in the front seat living out their dreams of being in love, driving through the streets of Paris. We began at Café De Flore, the oldest café in the city, where they sipped hot chocolate. Ashlee was blissfully unaware of the surprise awaiting her later that day. Calvin’s nerves were palpable, so he ordered a mimosa to calm his jitters. His nervous excitement was such a reflection of the love he had for his soon-to-be fiancé.
A Special Photo Keepsake:
Next, we found ourselves in a charming bookstore, and discreetly, I snagged a painted photo of the spot where Calvin would drop to one knee. This photo would become a cherished keepsake, a symbol of their love story’s beginning.
Running Through the Streets of Paris:
The streets of Paris became our playground as we ventured through its alleys. We explored an art market bursting with vibrant colors, where Ashlee and Calvin painted their own love story amidst the creative energy. At the picturesque Pont Royal Bridge, boats sailed by, and the sun bathed everything in a golden glow. The nearby canal provided the perfect backdrop for stolen kisses and tender embraces. In those moments, time seemed to stand still as Ashlee and Calvin basked in the beauty of their love.
The Proposal:
Through the captivating Louvre gardens, we strolled, immersing ourselves in art and nature. Every step brought us closer to our grand finale—the majestic Eiffel Tower. With hearts racing, Ashlee and Calvin turned away from each other, setting the stage for the climactic moment. As Ashlee turned back around, Calvin was on one knee, the Eiffel Tower standing tall behind him. Tears of joy filled her eyes as Ashlee said yes, sealing their love in a single moment.
The Crowd Cheers on the Lovers:
Cheers and applause erupted from the onlooking crowd as Ashlee and Calvin embraced, celebrating the magic of their love. The people of Paris joined in, a chorus of love and unity reverberating through the air. When they kissed again, the cheers became even louder! It was such a special moment. Ashlee and Calvin spent hours in that exact spot where they chose forever with one another. Leaving that space wasn’t something they wanted to do yet, because it was so close to their hearts!
One Last Goodbye:
As the day drew to a close, we bid farewell to Paris beneath the sparkling Eiffel Tower one last time. Its lights reflected the twinkle in Ashlee and Calvin’s eyes, so in love.
