Valentine's Day proposal

I am engaged to my fiance, Jennifer. I proposed on Valentine's Day last year. She was expecting me to propose from well before the New Year but when I had the opportunities, she was expecting it. She thought it was going to be done at a New Year's party when we were with friends. She expected it at the super bowl party last year. I didn't do it at any of those occasions for the simple fact that she was expecting it.
So last year, we were taking her 6 year old son to Disney World in Florida for his birthday. His birthday is Feb 18 so we just so happen to be leaving on Valentine's Day. She was also expecting me to do it at some point on the trip but not when I actually did it. I had this plan where I went to talk to the flight attendants where I asked them if they could ask the pilot to at some point during the flight, make an announcement that a passenger had something to say. They were more than happy to do it. So when I got back to my seat, my fiance asked what I was asking them. I said oh, well when I was a kid, my uncle had gotten me to see the cockpit during a flight so I asked them if they would let her son see the cockpit for his birthday. I said they are going to let him, but after the plane lands we will have to wait for everyone to get off and then he can see the cockpit (due to 9/11 of course). So she was happy with that. So halfway during the flight they stop the movie and the pilot makes a regular announcement and then says and now, a passenger is going to try and get a frog out of his throat and make an announcement. So he says everyone in row 28 and back please look forward and everyone in row 26 and forward please turn your heads to the back of the plane and would Jennifer please step out into the aisle. So here she is trying to see the seat numbers not realizing it was her. So I stand up and get her to go out into the aisle and she says Oh my God! Of course, I had this whole speech laid out in my head and what came out was nothing close to it, but I got the main words out, Will you marry me? And she said yes and everyone began to clap. The airline was very nice, they gave us some complimentary Champagne and a valentine's chocolate heart. When we landed in Orlando and we were getting out luggage, a very nice Jamaican came up to us and congratulated us and said oh my gosh, that was so nice you made me cry! She knew I was probably going to do it on vacation but she didn't know I was going to do it like that. I am usually very shy and she thought I wouldn't have the courage to do it in front of so many people. She thought I was going to do something private. But I managed to shock her and get her when she wasn't expecting it!

Amazing story! Takes a lot of courage to do such a thing, but it's worth it! Congrats!

I am new here. I've always come to this site once in a while to check out the deals. I saw the contest and thought, hey, I'd take shot. What have I got to lose? Might be a nice Valentine's present for the wife to be. At least all the plans are done. The big day is Oct. 12th this year! Thanks for all the kind replies guys. Take care.
