Much to the annoyance of my mother, M and I aren’t married. We kind of skipped over that bit and got down to the business of being a family. I wasn't particularly opposed to the idea of marriage, in fact I really quite liked the idea, it's just that we never really got around to it and given that neither of us are particularly religious and civil law is really quite open about these kinds of things, it just didn't seem like it needed to be at the top of our priority lists. But a couple of nights ago we went someway to easing my mother’s angst. On a picnic rug, watching the sunset over the Melbourne skyline Matthias asked me to marry him. A very nice bottle of Champagne and a ring took part in the merriment. Afterwards we celebrated at a fancy restaurant where they call you 'Madam' and 'Sir' and we woke my mother up to tell her the news (she was pleased).
There are still quite a few decisions to be made before we actually marry - deciding the when and the where being chief among them. And by where I mean the continent and country, rather than backyard or vineyard. So far Austria and Australia are favourites but Boston is also a possibility although the idea of organising an event from the other side of the world with no one “on the ground” to be the go-to person kind of does my head in.

Congratulations. Sounds like a lovely proposal. And appeasing the parents sometimes makes things better. Hope all is well.
Congrats! As a native Bostonian living in Germany, my vote is on Boston or the Cape area, that would be cool. But organizing is super tough, I've been there! Good luck figuring it all out, and best wishes!
Congratulations!
