Unforgettable Ways to Pop The Question

How did you ask your sweetheart to marry you? Probably it was not as unique as some of these ways. But if you are contemplating the question, perhaps these will give you some ideas about doing it in a freshly creative way! We have avoided the really expensive or bizarre ways and stuck to real possibilities.

If you like extreme sports, sky’s the limit for ideas. A couple who liked skiing reached the mountain summit. Just as they were about the push off, he proposed and she accepted. What a double rush they both experienced! Speaking of getting a rush, one sky diver proposed to his girlfriend in midair with a sign as they fell at 200 miles an hour.

A TV game show winner suddenly turned to the audience and proposed to his girlfriend. The audience starting clapping and, of course, she accepted. Another fellow arranged with a movie theater to help him. When the feature ended, a message filled the screen, “Gretchyn, will you marry me?- Sam”. Everyone clapped and, of course, after recovering from the shock, she accepted.

One creative fellow got his neighbors to help. At a preset time, they flashed their lights off and on spelling out the proposal in code. A girl thought her sweetheart was busy miles away. She was participating in a scavenger hunt. As she got the last item on the list, her honey jumped out and proposed to her.

A girl figured, with times changing, she didn’t need to wait. When they were next together, she remarked, “If you ask me to marry you, I will say yes”. If that seems too bold, try dropping a few hints like, “If you need a loan for anything, like, say, a ring, I’d be glad to help you out”, or “Where do you think we’ll be living as husband and wife a year from now”

Sam took his honey to a plush restaurant. She was pretty sure this would be the night he would propose but he didn’t even drop a hint during the meal. Finally the meal was over and he asked for the bill. To her shock a beautiful ring was on the bill tray. He took it, slipped it on her finger and proposed.

A creative man bought a book of love poems. After the few pages, he glued the rest together, then cut a heart shaped hole in the stack. She was touched by the first few poems but then turned the page and saw in the hole an engagement ring! Allowing time for shock to set in, he then took it and asked her the big question!

Try using the public media. Tom took out a full-page ad in a local paper he knew she would read. He was there as she read it and, when she saw it, he was handy with the ring. The paper contained a special souvenir of the day.

How about renting a billboard along a road she travels. As she reads, “(her name), will you marry me? Be handy with the ring or call her for an answer. Better yet, be standing by the sign holding out the ring!

An airplane is a great media for creative proposals. Hire a skywriting plane to write the proposal above them as they sit on a beach or attend some event A more permanent version of this would be to hire a company to make and display a banner ad to fly over an event they are attending or beach where they are relaxing. If possible, as she reads it, be handy with the ring.

Marriage is life’s second most important decision and should be only entered soberly. But that doesn’t mean you cannot be creative in the way you ask her to join you for life. Why not make it an event you will both remember throughout your lifetime together?
