The Best Ideas for Proposing Marriage
- This is a romantic proposal idea for tech geeks or couples who met online. Make a website containing a collage of photos of your life together thus far. At the bottom of the page, write your proposal. Call your girlfriend to your computer saying you want to show her something cool. Give her a minute to take in the website and when she turns around, present her with the ring. You can share the website with your friends and family to announce your engagement. Just update it with "She said yes."
- If your sweetie is always working on a computer, take a picture of yourself down on one knee holding the ring and set it as her desktop picture. Make sure you're nearby the next time she logs on to check her email.
- Place an ad in your local paper with a picture of the two of you and your proposal. Read through the newspaper together and when she gets to the page with your proposal, pull out the ring. Be sure to save the clipping for your scrapbook or as a souvenir to show your friends and family.
- Take your sweetie out to a movie. Arrange ahead of time for the theater staff to announce just before the movie starts that they are having technical difficulties. Then, have them play a slide show of photos of the two of you with a romantic song playing in the background. At the end of the slide show, the screen reads "Will you marry me?"
- Tell her that a package came for her in the mail. Instead of a name and address, mark the package label with "Will you marry me?" When she opens the package, she finds the ring inside.
- Purchase a set of children's alphabet refrigerator magnets and spell out your proposal on the fridge. Tell her you're going to make a romantic dinner for her. When she comes into the kitchen, ask her to get something out of the fridge so she sees the magnetic proposal. When she turns around, have the ring in your hand.
