How did you propose to your wife/fiancee

Here are the current fragments of ideas....

I always buy her Raspberry Truffles from Godiva... ring in the chocolate box?

She's always saying we should go test drive a convertible

first date was at a comedy club.

She's expecting it, but she has no clue when

There's this cool private beach down the street from where she's currently living

The ring will be ready this week.

She'll be an MD in less than a month.

I dont have alot of money left to do anything expensive.

Already asked the parents for permission... they're pleased and excited.

us

the ring

help.

EDIT: Current plan

the plan right now is to just go for a walk around sunset, down to Pax river naval base... out to this little beach we know about.... have the ring in a chocolate box(I buy her godiva chocolates all the time)... when she goes for the choc I go to the knee. Simple but should be ok. Really need some women to read this thread and give their opinion.

Very nice ring.. as for suggestions

I don't believe in going overboard in anything like that, so you might not want to listen to me 😉
 
I suppose I could keep it very simple... go for a walk... sit on the fore mentioned beach, wait for appropriate moment... hand her a box of chocolates with the ring inside. Drop to the knee... shabang.

why does everyone feel the need to make it a big deal? what ever happened to just doing it the old fashioned way and not being a giant douchebag, spending tons of money and making a big scene. just get on a knee, ask her, and go home and rail her over the couch.

are you married? She's gonna need a good story to tell to make her girlfriends make coo coo sounds.

We were sitting on a couch in her parents house,

She whispered into my ear,

I looked at her and said, ""You're NOT!"

The rest is history.

my current girlfriend isnt really too concerned with it. we arent anywhere near to getting married, and she has already expressed her opinion of how stupid it is when guys go all out just to propose. works for me.

What can I say, I likes me some couchsex! :thumbsup:
 
Well, I haven't proposed yet, and she knows where I lurk so I can't reveal too much 🙂...we're planning to get married sometime this summer, once again can't say too much lest she finds out 😉

But yeah, something simple and heartfelt will work well. Always good in a restaurant that the two of you like, talk to the staff ahead of time and see if they can arrange a special table for you, or to help you out in some way, most decent restaurants have no problem helping out, it gives them a good reputation.

I've got a few things in mind, one of them being at the top of a local mountain after a hike, another being in a restaurant, a third being the minute she meets me at the airport (we live a distance apart) in June.

Pick something you both enjoy, and make it special, but don't go overboard or else the meaning will be lost in all of the surrounding garbage.


BTW how much that ring set you back?
