Just Engaged and Proposals

Any funny proposals???

Does anyone have any funny proposals or something that happened during that was funny?
Example - when my fiance proposed to me he had gum in his mouth...evidently the gum was too much because as he was getting down on one knee he proceeded to spit it out on the floor of the hotel room. Later after the excitement and while I was making phone calls I hear, "Well, SOB!" He stepped in it, haha!! Defiantly something I will always remember!

Re: Any funny proposals???

  • I don't guess mine was funny, per se. But I did get proposed to in the most awesome outfit I've ever donned: gym shorts, an LSU t shirt, and a pair of rubber boots. We were tailgating for a football game and it was pouring rain, so I wore rubber boots, not knowing I'd get proposed to and have my pic taken in my awesome getup.

    He accidentally started putting the ring on my right hand first. Weirder thing is that he actually *removed* the other ring that I was already wearing from my right hand before I stopped him. I hadn't realized that he was proposing until then.

  • our kitten actually proposed to me. she had the ring on her collar and sat down on my lap. he took the easy way out lol
  • FI put the ring in my Christmas stocking last year - only he had filled the stocking in the wee hours of the morning while it was still dark.  Our stockings are the same, only mine is dark purple and his is dark blue.  Needless to say, my ring went into his stocking so when he went to propose he handed me HIS stocking.  When I got down to the ring in the bottom, he got on both knees (he said he was afraid he'd fall over if he was on only 1 knee) and asked me to be his wife.

    Our 1.5 year old was dancing around to the new Barney DVD Santa had brought her and just after I said yes, Barney started singing "I love you, you love me...."  lol

  • My little brothers were over at our house for the evening. They were all doing their homework (or were supposed to be anyway) and when FI proposed they were all so excited and jumping up and down and yelling and then I heard this other voice yelling too. So I look at my 15 year old brother's computer and he had his best friend on the video iChat and the kid was jumping up and down and screaming "CONGRATULATIONS!!!". I didn't even know he was there.

  • DH and I work at the same resort. One day in February I came to work and he was on the loading dock.  He says to me all excited.   "Lyn, Lyn... I asked Jasper for the first week of JULY off so I can ask your dad to marry you..." 

    He insisted on meeting my parents first and July would be the earliest we could get there.

    by the time July came, he asked my parents and then just gave me the ring. Which btw - in the months prior to July I had designed my ring, DH had it custom made and I carried it in my luggage to my parent's house.






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 
  • My DH said to me during a nice sunny day, we should go out to dinner that night, and made reservations at a restaurant down the road.  A few hours later a massive storm came through the area, it was rainy, cold, and the wind was blowing hard.  We still went out to dinner and he wanted to go for a walk after.  I refused and he looked a bit hurt so we just sat in the car and talked.  A little while later he drives a few blocks down to the waterfront and we talk some more.  He again suggests walking to the end of the dock, which by this time I knew what was going on, so I agreed.  Mind you, I looked outside and the wind was blowing so hard I thought a tree was going to come down in front of us and the rain was literally falling sideways!  So he comes around to my side of the car with the one large umbrella we are sharing and we walk to the end of the dock.  He hands me the umbrella and as he's going down on he knee, a huge gust of wind comes by and breaks the umbrella.  So with his knee in a puddle of water and rain pouring down his neck, he still asked me to marry him, and of course, I said yes! Laughing
  • My fiance was so incredibly nervous the day he proposed.  I just got home from work on a friday and he was all dressed up to go out with me that night.  The second I walked in the door he told me to sit on the couch and close my eyes cause he had a present for me.  When I opened my eyes, he was kneeled in front of me with an EMPTY opened box in his hands!  He asked me if I would marry him and the only thought that ran through my head was "he's gotta be kidding me with a stupid empty box.  He's just messing with me right now."  I looked at him and said,'there's no ring?"  He got a real frantic, nervous look on his face, looked around for a second and says,"well, I don't know where the ring went but will you marry me anyway?"  Of course I said yes and we found the ring right after that and both had a real good laugh.  It had somehow fell out of the box when he was nervously opening it up! 

    To make things even funnier, when he put the ring on my finger, it was way too big!  Apparently the standard ring size is a 7, so when he tried to explain how small my fingers were to the salesperson, they kinda just shrugged off his concern and let him know how this ring should be pretty close to my size.  My ring size is a 3.25 so you can probably imagine how huge this ring looked on my tiny finger.  It took the jeweler 2 months to get me a special sized ring!
