Good morning! I hope you are ready to snuggle up with a cup of coffee and a true classic. Ok, most of us don’t have time to read the entire series of Anne of Green Gables but we can recall the scene with Anne Shirley and Gilbert Bythe’s infamous kiss on on the bridge. You will soon understand why I loved working on this proposal!
William’s girlfriend, Sarah, absolutely adored Anne of Green Gables. One of her favorite childhood memories was reading the book and watching Anne and Gilbert’s romance develop. William understood how much she enjoyed watching the movie too, so he brilliantly located the exact bridge filmed in the movie.
William whisked Sarah away for a spontaneous get-a-way and proposed to her in Gormley, Ontario on the exact bridge! Yes, you read that right…talk about tuning into your girlfriend’s wildest fairytale!
Let’s just say Sarah had no words, but she recognized the bridge right away! Best part is she actually got to reenact “the kiss” with her own Gilbert Blythe. This is what I love about proposal stories, they can be totally unique and adorable with some real thought.
Love,
