The balcony proposal that almost wasn't

My boyfriend (now fiancé) had the ring in his checked luggage. Checked luggage went to the wrong ship. I am not kidding. He had a backup plan: asked the cabin steward if there was any way to get something wrapped nicely. The steward wrapped a gummy bear ring from the candy shop in a napkin folded into a rose shape, placed it on the balcony table with a candle borrowed from the spa, and had the sunset timed perfectly. I said yes. The real ring arrived two days later via courier to the next port. The gummy ring proposal was better. We still have the napkin rose. Cabin 15099: 10/10.
