Someone sent this to me, it maybe old but great display of affection. I was impressed with the photograpy, concept and SHEKINAH GLORY version of How Deeply I Need You
www.photosbyknight.com/gray/
The story behind it: NOW THIS BROTHER WAS ON TOP OF HIS GAME! THE BOY DID IT UP RIGHT!!! The Story... A couple in GA got engaged and the guy went all out and is now being recognized all over the U.S. for the love he has for his now fiancé** When you watch this you will want to cry. This is one more reason for not settling for less. Imagine.... thinking you are attending your brother's birthday party, just to find out your boyfriend has reserved ten (10) rooms @ the Ritz Carlton. Upon entering each room a special letter is being read by someone special in your circle of friends/family). Please take notice to the detail of each room, different color roses and some are laced in gold (breath taking). I'm not sure how long it took this young man to prepare this surprise for her, But I'm very sure she was very pleased. This is off the charts and very romantic. Robert is a graduate of Southern University (Q-dog) and is now an accountant with Home Depot at their corporate office in Atlanta. My understanding is that he financially footed the bill for this weekend himself. It was not supplemented by his parents. I was told that he moved in with his sister for approx. 6mos. and saved the money to pay for the engagement ring and all of the bells and whistles for this very special evening. A radio station in ATL was playing the song in the slide show and described what he had done and some men called in saying they had to step their game up. It actually touched a few of them because they admitted they didn't respect women on the level that he respects her. Make sure you have speakers because the song he chose is beautiful as well. ENJOY!

I saw it months ago, it did seem like an extremely long process. I got bored watching the video. She looked exhausted by the last room. It was very romantic though.

I was bored with it after a while.
As I see it what is romantic to one person is not romantic to all

Now that Essence put the whole thing on blast, I'm bored with it.
It was a really nice gesture...that wasted a whole lot of money.
for all that, he could have bought them a house.

It was beautiful, touching and a heartfelt gesture, but I'd be upset if he went into debt over this because I would be like, that could have gotten us a house of set up our nest-egg, more than pay for a wedding or start children's college funds...
Something on a smaller scale could have had the same sort of effect and spent less money.
Nonetheless, the brother's heart was in the right place.

I guess I see it as if he did all this just for the proposal I'd expect that he would be that dedicated to the other financial issues they have. Maybe he also saved for a the wedding? Or maybe they're saving together now?

That's the problem, He moved into his sister's for 6 mos to save money to do this and get the rings and stuff. I know the Ritz's rates, Approx ring costs and an Accountant's salary. That only goes so far... He needed to buy a house.
Perfect Proposal:
"Baby meet me at 1234 Payton Place".
Baby rolls up. "What's this Baby?"
Tosses Baby the Keys to 1234 Payton Place & on the key chain... A Ring
"Yes! Yes Baby Yes!"

he owns a house which he rented out while he lived with his sister to do this
here's another perspective: I sent this to my boyfriend and he felt that the guy got too "caught up in his own show". He felt that it wasnt right that Robert didnt get in the prayer circle with Keisha..it was always each group praying with Keisha in the middle,while Robert was on the outside/part of the circle...

You are SO RIGHT! That completely slipped my mind... still think it was a waste of money, but at least he had the house. |

Weddings Are Normally On The Female And Their Side....So I Hope So that might be one shabby wedding then, lol. J/K But for real I'd rather have a small wedding and a big reception. I want people to come and celebrate with us but I'd just like the wedding itself to be just close friends and family. |
