What a wonderful place to be proposed to, I can't imagine anywhere more romantic and Florians is the icing on the cake .. I hope the band played 'Congratulations' to them.
How lovely that your future SIL asked your permission, my niece's husband asked my brother before he proposed which I thought was lovely ... I'm all for tradition
My aunt although now in her early nineties, taught at the University in Venice and still lives there.
Unbeknown to Lorain, Stewart must have told her because the maître d at Florians new all about it and had the orchestra well primed. If you knew my daughter and Stewart you would realise how embarrassing this would have been for them, especially as the Piazza was full of Chinese tourists and their cameras at the time.
But Lorain said worse was to come as out from the inner restaurant exploded a parade of the waiters carrying a huge zabaglione with sparklers followed by my aunt and her friends, with bottles of Prosecco. Goodness knows what all the tourists thought.
However, thank you all for your very kind remarks. I am now trying to get my dear lady to persuade them to get married on board ship.
