go skydiving with her and toss it out of the plane right before she jumps. If she can get the ring she's a keeper, if not, oh well. Obviously don't use the real ring, just some cheap one and tie on a red streamer so it's easier to see.

I did it around this time a few years ago. had her go on an easter egg hunt around our property, and had one of those plastic eggs that are huge. I ordered like 5 lbs of M&M's, blue and pink, and had "will you" and "marry me" put on them. Put them in the egg, put the ring in there, and had her find it. So not only did she have to find the egg, but she had to dig through the candy to find the ring.

Mine took me almost a month to plan out....for Valentines Day long ago, I gave her a promise ring....I had to work at night so I set up a mini scavenger hunt through our apartment with clues as to where the next 'prize' was with the ring being the last to be found...all of the clues were a little cheesy, but she ate it up.
The proposal was the same on a larger scale....I bought one of those collage picture frames and filled it with photos of us together over the years...but I left the center spot empty....called her boss and told him what I was doing and got her the day off...I told her the night before that I had a special day planned and she was off the next day and she had to sleep in until 10:30.... I left the frame on the couch with the first clue.....not really clues, they told her where she was going....but it was a walk back through our lives together... 1st stop was a day spa right next to my work where she has a small bouquet of sunflowers waiting and received a facial and make up application.....every place she stopped I had already been there and let them know what was going on and left the next clue... 2nd stop was a bar we used to hang out at...we were friends with everyone there....I had pre-paid for lunch for her....left the bartender $40 and said let her get what she wants...she get's soup and a salad, you get a nice tip 3rd stop was the office to the 1st apartments we lived in 4th stop was the only liquor store in town that carries her favorite merlot...with a bottle of that merlot waiting for her 5th stop was the restaurant where we met...I was waiting at the bar for her...the bartender gave her a small bouquet of callalillies(the flower she always said she wanted for her wedding) and the last envelope....which read... You have made it. I really want you to remember this day for as long as you live. Your gift today was a little bit of “me time” and a living scrap book. I want you to always know that I cherish our times together and will never forget. Today’s journey is finished. However, always remember, with the end of every journey, a new one begins. So, as your new journey begins, I would like to humbly ask you if I may join you on it. Hopefully you noticed that there was a picture missing from your collage. This was done intentionally. That picture has yet to be developed. In all reality, it has yet to be taken. You see, that spot is saved for the picture the bartender is about to take when I offer you a ring and ask you continue to make me the happiest man alive by becoming my wife. a little cheezy...but memorable |

Anyone that dates someone in retail knows that chrismass Their always gone. My now fiance is a manager in a department store and i kept complaining about the hours she was putting in. I kept telling her i was going to write Merry F'ing X-mass on the outside of the house in christmass lights becouse it was so bad she wasn't around. On christmass eve I got off work early, she had to work till six. I drove nails in the back of my house and wrote MERRY X MASS in lights. I i riged the light to a key pad so when i hit the button it said Merry ME using the MERRY but the MA in mass turned to a ME. I caught her off guard, she never expected it and now i have to fill alot of holes in my wood sidding but she said yes.
And on a lighter note i just got back from a bonfire so please don't grade this for spelling or punctuation due to the fact bud light helped me type and we all know he is not a good accomplice. |

I got off second shift and when I got home called her and said hey lets go to Pigeon Forge for the weekend. She said cool she will pack in the morning. I said no pack now we are leaving now. She insisted we wouldn't get there until 1 or 2 a.m. but I said who cares babe...
She lived an hour away so I flew and stopped at a 24hr K-mart on the way up. Got 3 rubber Duckies and a black sharpie, bubble bath, tea candles, flowers, and some dove chocolate. When I picked her up you could tell she was tired and annoyed I didn't wait till morning. lmao... She said I was acting funny too. We were going to get a cabin but it was too late so we said we would get a hotel tonight. We have stayed at this same hotel for a while and its really nice. I always got room 302 because of my bronco motor and the fact it has a fireplace, full size table and chairs, big bathroom with 2 sinks, massive tub/shower. Really nice place. I told her to relax in the car since she had a long day and set up the bubble bath, flowers, candles while pretending that the counter couldn't read my debit card. On one rubber ducky I wrote Marry, another I wrote Me, and the last I had ??? Then placed all 3 in the bubble bath. I put the dove chocolate on the head of the pillow and headed back downstairs. Told her it took a while but we are good. When we walked in the room she hit the dove right off the bat. lol. I told her to relax and take a bubble bath. She said no I'm to tired and I said well I have to type some stuff out for work so take a bath while I do this... She huffed but finally did. I waited at the door extremely anxious for 40 freakin minutes. It took her forever to even notice the ducks. I thought she had fallen asleep or something. Then I hear splashin around and hear her say what the heck? She found the duck with ??? first. Then she found Marry, finally me. It took her forever to put it together though, but finally I heard her scream. So I busted in and slid on one knee like a total goober and said " well will ya?" lmao!! She flew out of that tub covered in bubbles and that was one wild night...

I did it on the friday of last years Easter concert at my church. I secretly took the day off and didn't tell her. I had to wake up at normal time and text her as usual or she would have thought something was wrong. Just before her lunch break I showed up with a dozen roses and hid in the bushes and waited for her boss to lead her outside(he was in on it). She came outside and I surprised her with my presence, told her I thought it would be nice if I came to visit her at work and gave her flowers. She smiled and kissed me and tried to rush me inside to show me around and introduce me to her coworkers. By the time she turned around again I was on one knee and ready to go.
I had already arranged for her to have the afternoon off so we told her mother(her father kept it from her mother so it would stay a secret) and went out for an engagement lunch at her favorite restaurant. Then we went to the Easter concert ((wearing all black because choir members(her) and technical crew(me) had to wear all black)) and of course everybody quickly noticed the sparkling new ring, especially when the spotlight was on her. |

While laying in bed trying to get some sleep before work the next morning, she asked me if we where ever going to get serious. While still laying in bed facing the other way, I just said "we can go look at rings this weekend" then went to sleep. That was it. We went looking for rings, and 5 grand later we where engaged.
Good luck. |
