Please try to stay on topic. I realise because of the complexity of some of the posts members may veer off but in answer do not 'go there'.

I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.

Part 4: Behind the Scenes
It turns out that when my boyfriend was talking to our SA on Wednesday he asked her if there was any way possible he can speak to someone about getting on the rooftop because he wanted to propose to me there. She almost started tearing and went to look for a manager to tell them about his request and they forwarded the request to Michael. That was when the management team came down with Michael, which was when I spotted him and asked for a photo with him. When I was too busy checking out the photos on my phone, my boyfriend told Michael about his plans and asked if he wanted to propose that day, but he did not have the ring on him… Oh, remember when my boyfriend asked about the restroom? Well, he didn’t need to use the restroom, he was chatting with our SA and told her Michael confirmed for Saturday at 2:30 for us to check out the rooftop garden. All along the hostess, chef (yes, they have a chef upstairs), leather department team, management team, our SA and Michael knew about his planned proposal! This trip to Paris couldn’t have been any better. It was perfect! Thank you all for letting me share my story about my trip to Paris for Hermes.

Congratulations first on your proposal and on your Constance & Jige (so unique - beautiful) acquisitions. Your fiance is a gem and the Hermes staff is so sweet and accommodating. I'm so happy for you. What a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing!

Has anyone written an email to an SA? My SA gave me her email address and told me email her whenever I come to Paris. Do I email her just the days I’ll be there? Or actually write down what I’m looking for

@cdinh87 that is the sweetest story I've ever read on this thread and I've been reading this thread for at least two years! Thanks so much for sharing; your bag picks are amazing and the photos of you all on the garden look beautiful. Your fiance sounds like a real keeper for picking out a place that suits your interests and for understanding the H addiction. This story made me so happy to read…such a great start to my day! Congrats on your bag and engagement, what a dream!

If I am not reading this in the office, I would have cried. This is the sweetest and most romantic story that I have ever read in real life. Congratulations and you are very lucky to have such an amazing man in your life.

Aww that's super sweet! Congrats on an amazing trip and proposal!

Congrats! As I was reading I was thinking he is going to propose that’s why he is talking to Michael. Beautiful proposal!

 

[cdinh87]

Thank you! I must say, my fiance anf the Hermes staff went above and beyond to make this happen and I am forever grateful.

I'm glad my story made you smile. My fiance didn't understand my love for purses when we first started dating and I couldn't relate to his love for cars, but all that has changed for the better.

What a heart warming story! Congratulations on the engagement, what a great husband-to-be you have!

Thank you so much!

Yes, this is truly an unforgettable trip. I was already in love with Paris before the proposal and now, this city has a much more special place in my heart.

@cdinh87 - what an amazing story! Congratulations on both fronts (scoring a C24 and Jige, and the engagement)!

Thank you Ang-Lin!

I cried too! Thank you for letting my share my story with you!

I must be so oblivious, I had no idea! hehe
