We went big for NYE '15. We decided we wanted to do something special that we haven't done before, so three weeks in advance, we made reservations for The Roof Restaurant on top of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.
This place is a total cliche for dating couples, especially during the holidays. It's known as the "engagement spot" where everyone goes to propose to their girlfriends. The night we went, they said they had already had a ton of proposals. I told Brian since we're married now, we could go with no pressure to him. (No pressure meaning if he had proposed in the most cliche location of Utah I may have said no.... Ok probably not but I would have been mad haha).
So this place totally lived up to it's reputation. It's a fine dining buffet-style, and I think I ate my weight in king crab legs. Brian probably did the same with prime rib, bacon wrapped filet mignon, salmon, and the works. They had a beautiful pianist playing during dinner with an occasional violinist, and at 10 PM (12 PM EST), we had a toast. It cost us two months worth of our monthly "fun money" since it was NYE, but it was 100% worth it.
I'll include some photos of our view overlooking the Salt Lake Temple and us all dressed up spiffy! Happy New Year everyone!
