Epic Emmy Proposal Leaves Us Craving More: Let's Share Our Marriage Proposals! by Jessica Acree

I love this story and your story, too, Jessica Acree ! So romantic! My husband Dieter Schmitz proposed to me in the Alps at midnight on New Year’s Eve as fireworks were lighting up the Austrian countryside. I nearly passed out from the excitement!

Ours wasn't as glamorous, but certainly one I will never forget. April 13, 2013. A day in Michigan in which we had all 4 seasons in one day. Lol. My husband had it all planned out...we were going to Frankenmuth, he was going to take me on a carriage ride and ask...but it was sleeting so the horses weren't out. We opted to walk around and got warm doing so as the sun came out. We went across the covered bridge and he stopped about half way across and asked ❤ he looked down, took my hand, ringless, and we walked across the bridge. After we got off the bridge he asked again a d then out the ring on my finger. He said he was nervous about putting it on on the bridge for fear he'd drop it and it would go through the slats. Lol. We celebrated 4 years this year!

Will try to keep this short! :-) He took me to Vegas and I had no idea he was going to propose. He had made reservations at a favorite steakhouse of ours, SW in the Wynn, for the first night we were there (he had been working with the manager of the restaurant for a while to make it happen). First, I found out Clay Walker was there that night and wanted to go to that and move our reservation. He said they would charge us if we cancelled, which I knew was B.S. Was a little annoyed, but moved on. We went to the bar in the hotel for a while and I proceeded to do what we usually do our first night in Vegas – shots, shots, shots. Lol He kept telling me I didn’t need to do that. Hmm. Whatever. I did. We went back to the room for a while and I fell asleep. MISTAKE. Woke up feeling like I had been hit by a train. (Need to speed this up…) Got to restaurant, had no appetite, chugged water like a dehydrated camel (the waiter eventually just stood beside our table to refill), ordered a $60 steak I couldn’t eat (took one bite and spit it into my napkin). Got up to go to the restroom (again!) and it was when they were walking out with the dessert and ring (I didn’t see them). They had to go back into the kitchen until I came back. They came out and did their thing. I said yes. Started feeling better not too long after that. Carried that damn steak around for a couple hours (guilt for not eating it!), then finally threw it away. It was a memorable proposal. The next night we celebrated at Gordan Ramsey’s Steak, and I ate every bite of my ribeye. :-)

OMG, all these stories are great! Donna John , haha! You’re a trouper for getting up after the shots. I’d have been out for the night! JacquCone , what a great story! Happy four years to you. Jessica Acree , yours is so sweet and I love that photo of you two!! ❤️💗❤️💗
