    My mate did it in the bandstand at Greenwich Park which I thought was quite good.

    I proposed at a party in lesberrystash's back garden on the stroke of midnight on millennium night. Once I'd done it and she'd said, yes, I fell over as I was drunk. It wasn't a drunken decision though as I'd decided to do it a few days earlier.

    Does she enjoy sport? Ask her if she wants to play catch and chuck the ring at her

    This the love of his life, the woman of his dreams, the lady he wants to marry. Not a dog.

    Just don't do it with thousands of people in attendance, i.e. football match, Gig etc...its just toe curlingly embarrassing.

    Ask her at Hillsborough. A proposal doesn't get as massive as that

    p.s that's not how I would do it but I don't know his bird!

    I took the future Mrs to Egypt and we climbed to the highest point we were safely able to on Mt Sinai and boom whilst she looked the other way over the sun setting in the mountains and desert, I dropped to one knee and prepped the ring. She turned round and I saw the most pleasing smile I've ever seen. It felt like eternity before she said yes.


    If she had said no, it was quite a drop ;o)

    Similar bit budget version here (our daughter was only about 3 months old so we weren't going out anywhere flash!) - had a picnic on Whitstable beach, waited for Sunset, proposed on 'the street', the strip of beach that appears at low tide so technically I'd proposed in the middle of the sea.

    Whitstable was/is a special place anyway as it's where we met.

    She picked up the nickname egg (a silly quiz thing) and loves chocolate so I managed to put the ring inside a kinder egg. Note, kinder chocolate burns rather than melts so you have to use real chocolate to re-seal it.

    I organised a treasure hunt for her to follow while we were on holiday which culminated in her finding me with all her family and popping the question there.

    She was practically speechless and only managed to ask if she could eat the chocolate at first. After her mum reminded her she needed to answer the question she said yes.

    Is this a trick question?
