    Dear Girls,

    If you were given the chance to plan your proposal, how would you have it? Mine would be a sunset, in a park with a beautiful fountain or river. Under the shade of an old, oak tree. I'd want to see doves fly, and roses everywhere. What about you?

    Dear Boys,

    You want to propose to your dream girl. How would you make it for the special female? Will you ask her how she would like it, or will you just surprise her?
     
    Honestly.. I want to be genuinely surprised. I don't really know if I want it in private specifically, but I know I don't want to make a spectacle of it for other people.. since it's something personal. But most importantly, I'd want it to have thought and effort put into it.. not just popping a ring "over dinner." I want it to be something special and intimate.
     
    Not in public, that's for sure. And the element of surprise must be in tact.
     
    I'd ask my girlfriend on how she likes my proposal, then add in my own surprises when it's necessary.
     
    I would catch her by surprise, but I wouldn't put her in a situation where she would be under a lot of pressure (like somewhere public). I'd really like to do something that is romantic but at the same time original - if possible something that relates to the place where we first met or involving something that means something to the two of us.
     
    Well since I'm a boy who likes boys who doesn't have the right to get married (did any of you see a bitter political statement coming? I didn't.), this thread doesn't really apply to me, however I would like to take this opportunity to re-post something a member said in a similar thread to this one back in August, because quite frankly it is the most badass post I have ever read in my life:

    poke are poke said:
    i go somewhere to watch the sunset and wait for the girls reaction if it is the right time BAM will you marry me? girl answers YES

    lmao, I can't stop laughing at it. It's just so awesome. It's the best post ever. And no, I'm not being sarcastic.

    I don't intend to get married, but if my mind were to change on that, I'd probably ask the girl in question how she'd want it done. The last thing I'd want would be for any potential engagement to start off by public humiliation at a sports game or on national TV or something like that if she looked uncomfortable when accepting. Yeah, it would definitely be in private: maybe a nice meal and then SURPRISE THERE'S A WEDDING RING!

    I'd like to have my wedding on top of the Eiffel Tower... but that's if I do get married, and that's for another thread.
     
    I'd definatley surprise her. I've even planned on how I would do it, around 2 years ago. What sucks, though, is that some jewelry company had the same freaking idea. >> I would take her to places that were special/memorable to us (eg first kiss, first dance, where we first met). Then I'd take her to this really nice place (perhaps a park of some sort) that nothing special would happen, and that'd be where I propose. =]
     
    Frankly, I have no idea. That's because I'd have a lot of things to consider, regarding my future wife's character, liking and such, then I would try and adapt to it. Just to put in a general tone, I would certainly propose to hear in a very pleasing way.
     
    I have no idea, as I dont want to get married, but if I was I guess I wouldnt want the guy to make it a spectacle, and Id not want it to be in public.
     
    I like boys.

    My dream proposal? When they ask me to MARRY them, not to enter a CIVIL/DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIP. Screw that ****.

    Now, assuming by the time I actually find the person that I want to marry that Gay marriage is allowed, then......

    If my S/O proposed to me, I'd want him to make it a surprise. It doesn't need to be anything glamorous, he doesn't have to hire an orchestra to play when he proposes, he doesn't need to put it on the jumbotron at a sports game, he doesn't need to make it much of anything. But... I mean.. if I knew about it.. then it's pretty much as if he already proposed to me, so he really would want to keep it a secret. Not.. "I'm going to propose to you next week, what do you want it to be like?" Just.. no.

    If I was proposing to my S/O, it'd be a surprise no doubt. I'd follow the same standards that I set for him. It doesn't have to be anything big and fancy. It'd probably be at a dinner somewhere, or at an important invent.. and hell, if I find the right guy in the back of an El Camino, a little bit wasted at some concert. Ahaha. That sounds glamorous.

    TBH, it doesn't much matter, so long as it isn't such bad planning that it's falling apart, or they don't just propose to me one day randomly out of the blue with nothing special. The act of the proposal(a declaration of love, in most cases) is what really counts for me.
     
    I hope he'd propose at a roller disco. Because that'd just be cool. But probably it wouldn't happen.

    Seriously, you know my kind of guy would propose to me by like, hacking into Google and changing the picture on the homepage to something that says "will you marry me?" and I guess that would be cute.
     
    I would actually love it if someone wrote me a song asking me to marry them and then performed it somewhere in front of an audience, or if they like wrote it out in the clouds or something~ Though, what I want more than that is I want surprise. I don't want to expect the proposal, and I don't want it to be all like small and not a big deal.

    HELLO YOU JUST PROPOSED TO ME KINDA A BIG DEAL. Oh and I want it to be in a pretty location and stuff and it would be amazing and unforgettable and stuff and I wanna get married and yeah <3 But yeah, I just want him to make a big deal out of it and like try and make it really nice and stuff instead of boring old stick the ring on a breadstick and hope for the best. OH MAYBE IN A HOT AIR BALLOON WOULDN'T THAT BE SO COOL!? Yeah I'm thinking of more stuff as I type this :x But yeah big flashy proposal is what I want... Big flashy suprising proposal.

    Maybe with neon lights... Or in a hot tub... Ooh it'd be so awesome <3 OR OMG CHEESE! Like carve some cheese in the shape of the words "Will You Marry Me?" I'd love that. Or chocolate, that would be even better. Oh and I hope the ring is nice too. No breadsticks though. Alphabet soup would be funny but it's not very special. I want it to be special and I want the guy to really mean it. I wan't to be suffocated by the love of the proposal!

    I'd want the proposal to be something unique to our relationship; something that's "us" - perhaps related to our mutual interests or passions, like art/CG or something nerdy. I'd prefer it be a surprise, too. I think the man I want to be with is more than creative enough to come up with something sweet, meaningful, and unique. It could be big and public or small and private - either would work just as well in my opinion.

    If it were up to me to propose to a man, I'd animate a short film for him ♥
     
    I've never really thought about it, before, probably because the idea of commitment even for a relationship is daunting for me, nevermind marriage.

    But I imagine I'd probably want something fairly private. And not even a "typical" proposal, I'd rather it be a decision mutually made. We'd share intentions to get married and then sort of plan toward it. I wouldn't want an engagement ring at all because I think they are stupid and I guess we'd tell family and friends when we thought we were ready and close enough that we could plan a more concrete wedding or something. I think that would make me more comfortable than a surprise or a big spectacle of it.

    But first I'd have to get a boyfriend or girlfriend or something. Forever alone.
     
    I like other girls, but even if I can't get married at the time, I would still like to get to a point where we're in agreement that we want to spend the rest of our lives together.

    I think it would be really cool if, at the end of a really nice day where we have a bunch of fun together, one of us just leaned into the other and asked the question straight out, just like that. I don't really care which one does it, although I tend to imagine myself proposing to the other girl.

    We would then go shop for rings together. :3
     
    I'd like to discuss it first with potential future husband instead of him just springing a ~surprise engagement~ because I just want to make sure we're on the same page. It's important to have good communication, especially with something as big as getting married. As to how I would like to be proposed to, I'd prefer something private. I think I'd be kind of embarrassed if he did it in public, with so many people watching. x_x; Aaaaand like Lightning, I'm not really into rings either.
     
    I agree with people who are saying they'd like to be surprised and not in public. I definitely don't want to see it coming (but hopefully I want to marry the guy, because otherwise that would be a really crappy surprise for both of us). However, for the sake of the thread, if I had my way it would be on the rooftop of some building at sunset/at night when all the lights are lit up in the skyline.

    Now, seeing as how there's a 99.9999999999999999999% chance that's not going to happen, I have accepted that fact and just decided to keep the rooftop idea for my actual wedding :)
     
    If you were given the chance to plan your proposal, how would you have it?
    The ring must be in plastic Pokeball (any ball would be fine but I'll rather have a Dusk Ball) then in a very dark place

    :t354:TG
     
    Probably somewhere near water. A place surrounded by flowers.... like roses, lotus, water lillies, etc.
    At twilight.
    Or something utena-esque
