Ben made me the happiest girl in the world on Saturday by asking me to marry him. We were sitting in Hyde Park, tucking into some yummy treats from Harrods, when Ben gets down on one knee and says…. well that’s just for us to know! It was the most perfect proposal. I had absolutely no idea it was coming and was completely blown away! Thrilled to bits.
As you can seen from the pics, I was straight on the phone to my parents who were over the moon. Their only instruction: “You have to come home to get married. No eloping!”.
Turns out Ben had been thinking about popping the question for a few weeks now, and was waiting for the right moment. Says he even surprised himself a little!
Hyde Park was the scene of something wonderful, and will always be an extra special place for us now. We’re so happy and excited about the future.
Yay!! So happy for you both. Enjoy this special time.
Well done Bender.
Congratulations to you both.
I was actually wondering when you would hang up the amature boots and turn professional.
Where’s the photo of "the rock" ?
WooHoo guys, I still can’t believe he did it. Congrats from me and Rachi. Missing you heaps. What about the engagement party?

What a romantic engagement story too- you’d better supply the Kleenex at the wedding!
I am so happy for the two of you!!! Couldn’t be better. I say, if you wanna get married OS, just do it!  And Michelle, I am happy-as to have you as a sister-in-law!
Hi guys, CONGRATULATIONS!!! Would love to say it to you both in person when I get back from Oz.
:)
BIG SMILES AND HUGS!
Bubby Shell and BP: I am so happy to have Ben as a member of our family. Pity he’s a Star Wars nut…..And pity he plays the drums too, but you can’t have everything, I guess! Have you told him yet that there is no dowry? By the way, oh- it doesn’t matter- there is plenty of time for us to discuss the Bride Price when next you come home.
Just kidding! A big, heartfelt welcome BP from the Steel family.
What can I say I like to bang the drums and watch sci-fi!!
I’m so happy to be welcomed in to the Steel fold. You guys rock. I love hanging out with you both and look forward to our weekly cooked meals when we return.
Oh guys, we’re just so happy for you! You are a beautiful couple, your love is obvious to the rest of us! May this be the beginning of a wonderful life together.
xoxo
Congratulations Ben & Michelle. This is wonderful news!
Congratulation Ben & Michelle! Cool guys…
I jumped on the Blog to take a look-sy at some Easter hols photos, and what do I discover??!?!!? Not only are Ben and Michelle engaged (CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!) but that I STILL haven’t been informed!
Unbelievable…..
In all seriousness, congratulations and well done! I am ecstatic for you both and can’t wait to be formally informed : )
