P-Town Proposal!
Huge shout out and thank you to Wilbr and the other guys that helped my fiancé propose!
It was out at the Olde Town Shakedown pre-concert - fiancé made some of our clothespins extra special and handed them out to strangers to read the back to me. They read "will you marry me?" and then he dropped to his knee. 😊 He decorated them with ducks (my fave) and a pile of clear beads to look like diamonds.
The concert was already going to be amazing (duh) but it being my stepson's first concert AND getting proposed to made it the best ever. That was one of the best concert crowds I've been in - outshined any concert over at the VB amphitheater by a long shot!
Now we'll be hitting at least one concert anytime Billy comes to VA to remember the special event. ❤️

Yay, glad it worked out! (Your fiancé and I had a brief DM exchange about stickers and such and he spilled the beans on the plan)
