There have surely been more convoluted and lengthy marriage proposal efforts conducted by the human species than this. But rarely, if ever, have they occurred in (pseudo) real-time. More specifically, occurred for all the world to watch and to contemplate the chance at success when the proverbial knee drops to the ground.
To tell it short, a journey, conducted by a Mr Chris Wible, began a couple of days ago, September 18, to be precise, and he’s taking along a girl named “Jeanne” to be engaged - preferably to him. And their travels, supposedly ending in early October, are all being documented at Jeannesays.com. And she’s said to be the only one not in on the secret. Gripped, are you? As are we.
If you’re curious to know whether this is a serious undertaking, or some sly promotion of one kind or another, it seems safe to call it authentic. There’s a flower fund to which followers can contribute, open until October 2nd, which happens to sit at an idle $50. And I for one cannot decipher any secret mysteries in the progress the two adventurers have made that would spoil the promise made. The website itself is just the right amount of simple, too.
