Ideas

Though anything that's specially related to your relationship to her would probably be better than anything else, even if it's not flashy. Just memorable.
 
congrats... propose to her in a special way in private, or do it in front of family - it's your choice.

i tied the ring onto a ribbon attached to helium-filled balloons and stuffed them into a large box. when she opened the box the balloons rose out... yadda yadda, very cheesy i know. 😛

word of advice: be extremely careful with helium-filled balloons with engagement rings attached to them on windy days.

I'm glad you have a good sense of humor about that--because you've been quoted for posterity. Here's a :beer: for making the day more humorous.

I get the feeling that alot of you guys arent married?

Well, I am not married...yet. I cam close to do it twice but didn't. I thought my suggestion was pretty good.

I may get married someday..got a new car, new house..now..time to shop for the new wifey.

 
What I envisioned is proposing my gf at the airport. While we plan a trip abroad and waiting at the terminal for our flight. The screen that displays the flight schedule will apear "her name, will you marry me?" Not sure if its possible and how much it would cost the airport to allow it or even allow it, but I feel that is a brilliant idea.
 
I know where I'm going to propose...but it only means something because it is the lake that I grew up on in CT. Just think of a place that is sentimental to both or one of you and I think you have a perfect place to propose. Don't propose in a football stadium.
 
I booked a last-minute trip to Paris for the weekend. I told her about the trip 36 hours before we were scheduled to fly out. I ended up proposing to her on Pont Neuf with a sparkling Eiffel Tower in the background. It went well.
 
if you have any doubts on her answer.....here is the sure fire way:

1) romantic dinner
2)romantic music
3)romantic dance
4) head to bedroom
5)bone her like there was no tommorow
6)just as she is about to climax, ask the question, and instinctivly, she will say YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
.
.
.
.
7)PROFIT!
 
Here's how I proposed:

Booked a room at the Venetian in Vegas.
Got show tickets.
Told my friends to help decorate the room with rose petals, candles and our song playing in the background. (she didn't know about them coming up)
After the show went back to the hotel, let her in first, she looked shocked as hell.
When she turned around, I was already on bended knee and gave my little speech and proposed.

Put the ring in the flip down visor on the passenger side of the car (the one with the mirror in it) go out to a nice dinner, real classy, and somehow (I have not quite gotten this part yet) get her to check her makeup, somthing in her teeth if shes got a good sence of humor, anything to get her to flip down the mirror. She sees the ring taped on the mirror- freaks out.
Just an idea.

maybe i'm paranoid, but don't use valet if you do this!

Just make sure she doesn't cause the driver to get into an accident. That'd put a damper on the event I think.
 
Get piss drunk and wail on your guitar for her. Ask her to marry you. Then pass out in her bed before pissing in it in a drunken stupor.
