Engagement photos is it necessary?
Rayann, On June 19, 2018 at 17:58

Proposals - private or public?
Joey, On June 13, 2018 at 08:05

Private or public proposals - which do you love? Which did you have? Did you and your partner talk before hand about which type you wanted yours to be? Private? Or Public?
