These were the moments leading to, during and immediately after the proposal by the steps of Cafe Ysabel, the couples regular date place. To add to the excitement, Celeste Katigbak first arrived an hour late. When John Carlo and his dashing men in uniform were ready and in position, with the candles down the steps and around the fountain all lit, it took another five minutes which felt like 15 before Celeste answered the phone calls, thanks to Harry Khemlani. When she finally emerged and saw the candles and the men in their gala uniforms escorting her to a waiting Carlo, it finally dawned on her what was about to happen though still in shock. Carlo got on his knees, read his message and she answered with a nod, a kiss and an embrace.
