I knew this moment had to be perfect. I hired a photographer <a href=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/proposals-ideas-hire-a-proposal-photographer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@flytographer<\/a>, and began looking for the ring. Once I found the ring, I was informed the ring was no longer available and there was only 2 left. I was in a bidding war with a stranger, who happened to be Tati, for the SAME RING! After a few weeks of going back and forth with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluenile.com\/ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@bluenile<\/a>, the ring arrived to the house. I asked Tati\u2019s mom to hide the ring for me, without knowing Tati had asked her to do the same. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">We finally arrived to Santorini and I anxiously waited for the planned proposal date to approach. I kept reminding myself to play it cool so Tati wouldn\u2019t catch on. The day arrived and throughout the morning, I kept insisting that we head back to the hotel in order to freshen up before heading to Skaros Rock to see the sunset. We arrived to the location two hours early, so we headed to a rooftop bar to grab a few drinks before it was time to head down to \u2018see the sunset.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">Finally, Kimonas texted me to let me know that we should start making our way down to the location slowly. With every step I took, my heart began to palpitate vigorously. I needed our Santorini proposal moment to be everything Tati had ever dreamed of. We reached the chapel in front of Skaros Rock and Kimonas was there pretending to be a tourist. I asked Tati to take a selfie with me to signal to Kimonas that I was ready to propose. He asked if we would like him to take a picture of us on my phone, then asked if we would like him to take a picture with his camera. I quickly said yes.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_text et_pb_module et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_text_4\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<p>We got into position for the

said, \u2018Yes, will you marry me?\u2019 She quickly reached in her purse and pulled out a ring box and said, \u2018Only if you marry me.\u2019\u201d \u2013

I told her three days before that we were going for a spa day near London, where we would be stopping over.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">On the morning of the surprise holiday I still had to pack the main suitcase, whilst she was in the shower and get it into the boot before she got out. Everything went to plan and then spend 6 hours on the road due to traffic, and nearly giving me a heart attack. So the satnav was set to take us to a meet and greet parking 10 mins away from the airport, where the first surprise was knowing that I would be taking her away. On arrival she was clueless, and looked petrified but I reassured her that we were going away for a couple of days. Not revealing the location until before we board the flight. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So we got to the airport and checked in the main suitcase (after she checked what I had packed) then we just had to wait for the gate number to appear. When it did, I realised that this was just the start, and when she finally did see where we were going the tears could not be contained.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">On arrival to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.andronisboutiquehotel.com\/?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_content=SearchBrand&amp;gclid=EAIaIQobChMIveiDqcih5QIVEsNkCh24ZQG4EAAYASAAEgJok_D_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Andronis Boutique Hotel<\/a>, where we were staying.&nbsp; I had already set up a fake competition with chief concierge weeks prior.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Upon check-in, we were offered the chance to enter a competition to win a photo shoot. Of course, we would be the only ones entering the contest. A day later, the hotel posted a congratulatory letter to our room, the night before the shoot. It completely worked \u2014 she believed everything.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So the day of the shoot, we were told it would be a afternoon shoot, we would be getting picked up at 4:20pm, and we would be taken to the photo shoot designation (I prearranged this also).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We felt instantly at ease with our photographer&nbsp;Kimon. He took us to stunning locations, finally leading us to the proposal spot.
