Creative Marriage Proposals

Just for fun, and for something a little different, I have collected some creative marriage proposal stories. I hope you enjoy them, and if you have not proposed yet, these might even give you some fun ideas of your own. 
  1. I was a poor art student in college living 17 hours away from my girlfriend. I wanted to propose to her in my own unique way. So I wrote out my true feelings for her on illustration board. I then made it look over 100 years old by applying an aging varnish and crackling varnish. I had it framed in this 18th century style frame I bought at a cheap art store. Then I arranged with the exhibit director at the local museum in her town to have it hung in a gallery space. (The director didn't charge me, she loved the idea) I surprised my girlfriend on her graduation weekend by flying in. (Before I saw her I had stopped at the museum to drop off my framed piece). My girlfriend had to run errands all day for her graduation, but I asked her if we could stop at the museum. I explained to her (and lied to her) that a friend of mine from art school happened to have some work on display at the local art museum. I told her I realized she was busy that day but if we could just stop in and see it because it was the last day for his exhibit. We stopped in and I let her walk in the room and look at the art work. Finally she saw a piece of writing hung on the wall that had her name at the top. She read it and finally realized what I had done! By the time she got to the end, I was on one knee and proposed! She loved it, and the best part was she got to show all her classmates her ring and tell the story at graduation!
  2. I found a farmer and paid him to cut out a 7 acre marriage proposal in his field. Then I flew my fiancée over the field and proposed to her on our way to a family cabin.
  3. My girlfriend loved flowers. I took her to a flower nursery where I incorporated the assistance of the manager. Amongst the brightly, yellow colored flowers, I arranged to have potted, red colored, flowers placed in the nursery that spelled out the words..."Susan, will you marry me, Brad". I further hid my spelling by covering the red - worded - flowers with yellow petals. Then, on cue, the fans were turned on and the loose petals were blown away to reveal my message. She cried and said yes. Directly behind us was a rose arrangement where I had the ring resting on top of a rose bud. She stills talks about it today.
  4. I had always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride ever since I was a little girl. I remember one night I had mentioned it to my boyfriend during a talk about silly memories. Anyway, it was on my birthday and I was so thrilled that we were going to go. He couldn't have planned it better! Being excited, I invited close family and a few friends to take pictures (as I had planned) when we got down. Apparently he had arranged for a lot more people to come and I had no clue about this. So, we were in the hot air balloon and he was telling me how much he loved me. It was perfect. He looked surprised at something, and I looked over the side to see. He had told them to arrange their cars in the words “Marry Me. It was so amazing! After that all of our friends came down to take pictures of us. It just meant so much to me that he had planned this out so well, and arranged over 130 people to show up!
  5. I went over to her house at four in the morning and placed a note on her windshield telling her to have a good day at work. Next to the note, there was a window paint pen. She drove to work probably wondering what was going on. As she made the final turn onto the back road to her work, along the side of the road, I placed signs that say: (1) There is a guy (2) Named "my name" (3) That loves a girl (4) Named "her name" (5) And he wants to spend the rest of his life with her (6) And he wants to know if.... And then as she pulled into the parking lot, my vehicle was sitting in the parking lot with the back glass facing her. On the back window I wrote with the window paint pen..."her name" will you marry me??? And right below that there is 2 boxes: one for yes and one for no for her to check with her window paint pen. Then I got on one knee next to my vehicle with ring in one hand and dozen roses in the other.

    "Adam was fun, professional and just a perfect pick for my daughter's
    wedding. My wife and daughter came home from the wedding fair and were certain they had found the right company in Sound Wave Music, after meeting Adam and Kristin, they were right! The entire evening went smoothly, we loved the music and the timely announcements kept everything on schedule. Adam kept the dance floor full and we literally had guests from 2 to 95 on the floor at different times, all enjoying themselves.
    Sound Wave really is a "one call" solution for professional music and
    a fun evening."    - Mark
