#BnS158 - Be Mine
The deadline for this challenge is 28 February 2022
You look up with interest as your newest client steps in and takes a seat, anticipating a new challenge. “Hello, Mr. Love. What can I do for you?”
Valentine Love smiles widely at you. “I have been looking everywhere for the best place to propose to my beloved Amanda. It has to be just right, you see, and unique. But nothing suited us. Then I hit upon the perfect solution: I could have one built!”
You sit up straighter, intrigued, anticipating a new challenge. It has been a while since you have had the opportunity to build something other than a house and you welcome the change of pace, wanting to help this young couple. “Oh? What did you have in mind?”
“Something small, intimate and romantic. An outdoor proposal area with lights, music and flowers. I would also like a covered area to eat either before or after.”
You nodd, already getting ideas. “Is there anything else?”
“Could you possibly include hearts or heart-shapes in the decor or landscaping?” Mr. Love asks earnestly.
“I’ll see what i can do,” you promise.

ENTRY DETAILS:
Valentine Love has finally found the perfect place to propose to his soulmate, Amanda Heart. Valentine had this place built, so that it would be perfect. His wish for flowers galore, music and lights in an outdoor proposal area (under the pink tree) has plenty of flowers and their favorite classical music on his grandma's grammaphone. There's even a covered heart-shaped space to eat a meal after he proposes!
The evening started in the proposal "room." Of course, Amanda said, "yes!" Then, they moved into the pond "room" to look at the swans and to "whisper sweet nothings." Next, the couple, check out the wishing well "room." Their wish for a child came true. They have 24 hours to pick the child up at the adoption agency. After that, they "tried for baby" in the hot tub "room," and surprise --- Amanda is eating for two! Speaking of eating, the couple finished up the evening by eating food from the buffet table and chatting before retiring to their nearby home for the night. Oh, but first, the need to pick up the child the adopted. Before the elopement or wedding (they haven't decided yet, they need to build the child a room and the baby a nursery.)
So, Valentine and Amanda have gone from dating, to becoming engaged to becoming parents of at least two children! Now, off to plan the wedding/elopement!

Backstory:
Love and hearts are both in the air (or should I say in the proposal garden that the couple had built for their proposal.
Valentine Love has finally found the perfect place to propose to his soulmate, Amanda Heart. He has the soulmate aspiration, while she is a musical genius. He's romantic, and she's creative. However, they both share the family-oriented and loves outdoors traits.
She likes pink, while he likes red. However, they both like classical music and gardening. Both of them like to wear hearts in any piece of clothing they can. He even has heart-shaped glasses!
Oh, and one more thing: The couple just eloped in their proposal garden after a few days when the children became children. They will plan a vow renewal for the very near future, so that their adoptive and biological daughters can be the flower pal and ring bearer. Now, that's going to be one difficult coin toss for the girls!!

ENTRY DETAILS:
Mr. Love requested a "unique venue" to propose that suited him and his beloved Amanda. Doing my research; I discovered that Valentine works as a writer and loves to study and write about history, an avid historian! Amanda's passion is archeology and they both love the outdoors. This led me to the ancient ruins of Windenburg. An excellent location for the couple! The place was a mess when I got there, but I was able to make it the perfect venue for the couple. The ruins are quiet and private. The couple will not experience random sims interrupting them here. I have added public washrooms and a kitchen for them to hire a caterer. There is a covered dining space for the couple, as requested, and a stage for them to have live music. There is a bar and a bubble elation station in the venue as well. I have decorated the area with pinks, reds, and purples and have added many worn pots with flowers and candles throughout the space.
