Marriage Proposal Ideas

The Classic Marriage Proposal

1. Pick her up in a limo wearing a tux and carrying a dozen long stem roses.
2. Take her to a private dining room in a very exclusive restaurant.
3. After dinner, have a string quartet play soft music and dance nice and close.
4. After dancing , take her to your favorite romantic place, perhaps walk the cobblestone in old town St. Charles, visit a local winery, or hop on a riverboat cruise.
5. Then take her hand, kneel down and propose by saying:

You mean the world to me
No one else has ever meant as much to me as you
Good times and bad times
For as long as we both live
Without you, my life is incomplete
I am missing something when you are not with me I think of you night and day
I miss you when we are apart
Come grow old with me I love you! Will you marry me?!?

The Poetical Wedding Proposal

1. Buy a paperback book of poetry.
2. Glue all the pages together.
3. Towards the bottom of the book, in the exact center, carve out the interior pages in the shape of the engagement ring. (Use an exacto knife to get a clean cut) – Place the engagement ring in the carved out area to make sure that it fits.
4. Buy a piece of off-white cardstock (heavy paper).
5. On it, write the following poem:

There comes a time in every man’s life
When he must take a chance and choose a wife;
That time has finally come to be -
So will you take a chance and marry me?

6. Glue the heavy paper (cardstock) onto the first interior page – Glue the top portion only, so that the card can be flipped up to reveal the engagement ring.
7. Place the book on the back seat of your car/pickup.
8. Go on a road trip and when you’re on your way, stop at a rest stop to buy a soft drink.
9. Tell your sweetheart that you want to drink the soda before continuing on.
10. Tell her that you found a great poetry book and that you tried your hand at writing a poem. Reach over and give the book to her and ask for her opinion.
11. She will read it. There may be a look of bewilderment as your love realizes that this is a proposal. Just at that moment of hesitation, say “flip the top page up.”
12. If there was a moment of doubt as to what was happening, it will be erased when the engagement ring comes into full view.

The Treasure Hunt Marriage Proposal

1. Tape a note to your intended’s bathroom mirror which reads: “Today will be the biggest adventure of your life!” It should hold the first clue to a treasure hunt.
2. Place other clues in various locations throughout the city such as in her apartment, a storage locker at the local bus station (or mailbox at Mailboxes, etc.), at the local food market, at the video store, at her parent’s house, and at her workplace. Each clue should be a rhyme which has some personal significance.
3. At the end, tell her to meet you at a favorite overlook, or romantic spot.
4. When she reaches the spot, make sure she finds the final clue which asks her “Will you marry me?”

This proposal is an instant hit with adventurous women, but if you want to kick it up a notch, then take the hunt on the road. At one of the secret locations, have her a plane ticket (perhaps to Chicago) and suitcase waiting (make sure you have packed her suitcase ahead of time.). Make sure you are there when she gets off the plane. You could be holding a sign or something. Be creative with this one!
