Remember! This is secret! No posting this ANYWHERE…
I’ll post more details later, and be looking for insight.
But it will happen on Saturday, March 4th.
I am flying Carrie to NYC. She has never been there before. She does NOT know we are going.
And that is where I will give her this:
Here’s the breakdown of the plan, so far (all times are Eastern, naturally):
Saturday, March 4
1 PM – Carrie and Matt arrive at LGA on United. Heather T-B (Carrie’s best friend) and Chris R. arrive at LGA on American Airlines.
1:30 PM – Carrie and Matt check into their hotel.
2:00 PM – Carrie and Matt go someplace. Eli is there disguised as a tourist.
2:05 PM – Matt proposes to Carrie. Eli surreptitiously photographs the entire thing without Carrie noticing.
5 PM – Matt and Carrie go to meet “some friends” for dinner. Surprise, surprise, those friends turn out to be Heather T-B and Chris (and whoever else).
Later evening – Everyone meets up somewhere for drinks to celebrate Carrie and Heather Flock’s birthdays.
Sunday, March 5
Brunch-thirty: New York brunch action with whomever
2 PM – Carrie, Matt, Chris, and Heather T-B (and whoever else is interested) go to see Avenue Q.
8 PM – Heather T-B and Chris fly home
Monday, March 6
1:55 PM – Carrie and Matt fly home.
Here is what I need help/advice/input on:
Hotel recommendation for Carrie and Matt
Location recommendation for actual proposal (including bad weather backup)
Someplace for Chris and Heather T-B to stay on Saturday night
Some proposed proposal locations:
Empire State Building (possible issues due to lines, etc)
Central Park
Some random little park in Midtown
What do you guys think?
