Grim Proposal Pictures



August 12, 2006 - Great Lakes Medieval Faire - Don gave Betty a ring and a rose and proposed to her at Owain Phyfe's show. After the proposal, Owain played a request, "La Prima Vez", a romantic song from hundreds of years ago. Don's speech was basically:

"Betty, it has been an honor and delight to be married to you for 25 years. I am going to beg you, I mean ask you, to marry me for 25 more years. Before you answer, I have a bribe, I mean a gift. The ring inside this box is silver, representing 25 years of marriage. It has a jewel on top because you are a jewel to me. The rose is something beautiful for someone who is beautiful inside and out."



How does this box open?



It used to be easier to get down on one knee.



Rio, the drummer, peaks at the "BIG ROCK".



That is a ring large enough for the back row to see!
