The Proposal

 

On January 7, 2007 after flying over to Punta Cana, DR Chris and Paulina walked along the sandy beach at sunset. At the end of their walk they stood in the Gazebo situated among the palm trees right in front of the ocean. Chris went down on one knee and asked Paulina to marry him, at which she responded with a 'Shut up!!'  After she said yes he slid the amazing diamond ring on her finger. This was the beginning of their engagement celebration down south.  To top it all of Chris asked Paulina's dad for her hand in marriage before the trip.
