My girlfriend loves crossword puzzles and she's really good at them, so I'm gonna have the words "Will you marry me," spelled out within the puzzle. I already called the local newspaper and they were totally up for it at a cost of like 50$ or so. Now, how to insure she always does the sunday puzzle without making it seem like I want her to do the puzzle? Still working it out. Gonna have to get into a routine or something. | ||

Just start to do the puzzle, complete 2 or 3 questions and lay it on a table somewhere in sight as if you were done or frustrated. If she really loves crossword puzzles she won't be able to resist completing it. (It also may be, that she just throws it in the trash :-D ) | ||

And yes, a smart man will propose only after he is sure she is going to say yes  By the way, you will love being married... between the right two people it is a great gift. Don't fall for all the negative press these days about marriage... just put all your effort into it and she will make you a happy man. Thank you for the kind words. | ||

Do most of the puzzle yourself, leaving just the ones that make out 'will you marry me' then just mention in passing at some point if she could finish it for you as you can't figure out the last few | ||

According to the latest picture on Reddit, he proposed on one of the rides itself. See link: http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/425436_10100168996007638_19706356_43054602_1437928309_n.jpg This got me thinking about how crazy some proposals are. I've heard many stories and seen all kinds of pictures/videos of weird and wonderful ways to propose. Personally I am very old fashioned in many of my lifestyles, as such my proposal would be a very Romantic evening out sort of thing. Maybe on a Holiday to somewhere scenic and beautiful. So Ladies and Gentlemen of Team Liquid. How would you propose to your partner? Also if anyone has already proposed or been proposed to, share the stories! Lastly, Congratulations to Geoff and Anna. I hope you have an amazing Wedding and Life together.  Hi OP. This reminds me of that guy would wanted to propose just before BUNGEE JUMPING. I mean, I'm not sure how that's going to help...but that's super scary | ||

That being said, I still would like to get married someday. It's just a decision I won't make quickly or carelessly. As for proposing, that's something I would only to in private. I'm not even a big fan of PDAs because I remember how uncomfortable they made me when I was still single and around some of my friends that were married. I'm not saying I act like an iceman around my girlfriend in public, but I don't get too cuddly/kissy either. An event as personal as a marriage proposal isn't something I'd want strangers to be privy to either. The financial side is pretty intimidating, but at least here in Australia and the UK, you are considered in a defacto relationship if you live together or have any shared finances, which means you can get financially fucked anyway, so it's not such a big deal. I don't like the PDA's either. | ||

As for my story, I proposed to my gf of 6 years in May. Were getting married this June. The story is long and elaborate but the TL;DR is took her to Vegas with a couple who were best friends with. Nice evening on the town, saw Le Reve, got a buncha margaritas, hopped down the strip, landed at the Bellagio fountains at night. Went to a knee during the show. It made for a beautiful backdrop. Our friends took pictures which was somethign she wanted. While we were out, I had the hotel set the room up with champagne and rose pedals and the whole shibang. It was an amazing night! | ||

I need some ideas as the marriage proposal plan I had is not longer viable do to visa issues. I had planned a private sunset cruise @key west with live music and dinner and was planning to propose at that moment. Due to some visa problems key west is out of the option for now, I still would like to propose soon as I will be traveling to the country where she lives, and I once used to live. but now Im kinda clueless of how to do it since my 1st plan is gone. consider the following things: I will be renting an apartment studio for the time of me being there. She will leave her mothers house and stay with me at this apt while im there. I will be in a city that has no beach and is far away from beaches. The city is not a big metropolis city, medium size city I guess. I do have some knowledge of local places but its somewhat limited. city is known to be a party city. many nigh clubs bars etc Money is not a huge deal, as I had plan to spend usd 2k or so, which in local currency can do a lot! About her: she is a simple laid back girl she doesnt like really expensive fancy things , she is more into saving, and not wasting she like romance, but she is not one of those hopeless romantic type of girls. she doesnt like flowers and flower arraignments likes chocolates enjoys live music those are some of the relevant things I can think of the top of my head. Also she will be working during morning time unil lunch so I do have some time to prepare surprises and stuff. I just need some ideas or opinions on how to do a good romantic proposal :D any help is greatly appreciated since i cant really make up my mind and stop thinking on the key west thing  | ||

We've been together for 11 years now (i'm 32) and the time " felt right " Sank to the knees while we were on a holiday trip to turkey. Was on a pier at the beach after we had dinner in the evening. There was no one around since it was late so the setting was quite nice. she did not see it comming at all , neither did her parents when i went asking for her hand , old fashioned style. Was a good day and i'm very much looking forward to it. That sounds beautiful. | ||
