The Proposal

Amelie and Brandon took a weekend trip to New Orleans, LA at the end of July 2010 with Jen Micyk and her husband Andy. This was Amelie's first time experiencing New Orleans, and one of Brandon's favorite places to visit.

They finally reach their hotel in the French Quarter after their bus driver from the airport hollered at everything that could hear him from his driver's window. After spending the afternoon walking through the shops up and down Decatur St. they had to get ready for dinner as they had plans to meet Jen and Andy.

As they left the hotel, Brandon insisted that they take a picture together. Amelie, annoyed, as they were late reluctantly agreed. Brandon led her down to Jackson Square, and set up the camera in front of St. Louis Cathedral. Instead of taking a picture, he instead turns the video recorder on. Amelie, still thinking they are taking a picture poses waits for a flash, turns and sees Brandon down on his knee.

The night continued as we met up with Jen and Andy for dinner at the Acme Oyster House to celebrate our engagement then out to Bourbon Street!

They forgave the tardiness!
