Okay...this is it. THE MOMENT.

Guys, how do you imagine yourselves proposing if the time comes?

Ladies, how do you imagine the proposal?

Aw, nice fuzzy warm subject :) Well, if I could have it any way I want, it would be while snuggling on the sofa, glass of wine, good music, watching a roaring fire in a ski cabin after a day of skiing and a little gift wrapped box and him whispering in my ear "Will you marry me."

When I was younger, I had different ideas.

After years of Epic Adventure, I would propose on top of a mountain with family and friends all there.

Sometimes I want a public proposal and other times I want a nice sweet intimate profession of love.

I'm like Amber. Sometimes I think I'd like a BIG proposal in a baseball game or a hot air ballon with the birds forming the phrase WOULD YOU MARRY ME? , sometimes I think I'd like something small and intimate, but romantic though. I think he will know how to do it. While he says my name in the proposal everything is fine!:p

The when, where and how doesn't really matter to me as long as it's a total loving surprise and it's not an unenthusiastic "Here...I got you this ring...wanna put it on.

You think I'm kidding, but..seriously...a guy bought me something in a small jewelry box a couple of years ago for Christmas, said "Here", tossed it into my lap and went into another room. Not sure what was in it because when he came back, he found the unopened box and no me.

Most likely when we're doing something quiet together. It wouldn't be anything special, like a fancy dinner, or an evening under the moon. It could be. But It would be the proposal that makes it what it is. Making that leap of faith, hoping things will go according with the answer that is expected.

I have no set idea. I'd rather wait and see how that person inspires me and to be able to personalize it. i won't know until the time comes. i only hope when the time comes i can think of something that will be a true reflection on how strongly i'll feel.

You big ol' romantic you :)

I don't even like having Happy Birthday sung to me in public, so I can't imagine having something like this sprung on me in public.

I was proposed to soon ten years ago.It happened as a gentle whisper and was very intimate, loving and beautiful in everyway.
Then I was proposed to again about a year ago.
Two years ago I had experience where I was wearing a wedding dress that dropped to the ground in church as I disapeared as in became invisible.Then my dog and I were in church mourning and she would sleep by the altar mourning.
My body was twisted, my heart broken as life was sucked out of me.

I have my soulmate and we have been apart yet we are one.
Theres been a lot of drama and illwill and agony and evil behaviours of true evil towards me ,am suprised how law has not happened but they have gotten away with .....

I just want intimate holy union and how I am proposed to I would want to be in a sacred, intimate, private way with Jesus and God and no disturbances, peace, love.
All I want is him.
I would not want a "loud" proposal even though "telling the world and God and all is nice it can be told in other times and ways

Just genuine , from the heart and soul and all he is.
Thats enough and all really...

I wouldn't do a public proposal, I think it should be something private or at least shared only with people who know you, being in a crowd of strangers in a moment like that would be a bit weird.

I'd just make an effort to make it memorable for her and have it be how she would like it, as long as I got a yes I'd be happy, everything else about it would be for her, so I guess I'd spend some time hunting for clues, then make plans. ;)

I wouldn't like a public proposal either. Something nice and quiet, just the two of us. Private moments like that shouldn't be spoiled by doing them in public for show. It's much more sweet and romantic if it's a private thing, at least it would be to me.

I play our song, she comes running out and whatever I say it comes out as we were meant for each other.

I was proposed to with yellow roses and no ring. We were 1700 miles apart, but I didn't care. I called him the first chance I got and yelled 'YES!!' Unfortunately, things didn't work out, or I wouldn't even be posting this post. :p

My ideal proposal still involves yellow roses which are my favorite. I haven't figured out the rest yet. lol

Back in 2002 I wrote a love letter to my future wife. I put it in an envelope and will give that to her before I propose. I don't know when and where obviously, but it will be just the 2 of us. If I do a public proposal and get rejected, that would really suck :p

Agree, intimate, private proposal and then let everyone else know after the proposal.
Maybe celebrate with clocest friends and family if one wills (or with the world, Universe and God :) )
But the actual proposal is nice to be private, intimate and just the two of us.

Wishing us beautiful sacred moments to come........
