Who asked whom? Were you d*unk? Was it planned? Did the ring fit?

Any cute stories out there?

He asked me in our bedroom, in the pitch black. I had to turn my phone torch on to see what he was doing

surprisingly he wasn’t d*unk at the time.

I had plans. I got all nervous, and did it all differently and wrong. … she said yes though.

Cute story, happy times.

So I'd been waiting months for him to propose. I wanted to marry him and make babies. All the important dates where I felt he might propose had passed. Christmas, our anniversary, his birthday. We were having a long weekend in York. We had our bags with us as we had to get the train in about an hour to go home. I was pissed off as he still hadn't proposed. Then he took me to the green outside York Cathedral. I sat on a bench under a tree and he got on one knee. He told me I'd made him the happiest he'd ever been in his life. I said yes and stopped being so grumpy.

He did tell me later he'd been trying to find the right place to do it all weekend, but one of the other places had a sign up saying hundreds of Jews had been massacred there centuries earlier so it didn't feel quite right.

My ex and I were carrying the shopping home and we’re talking about things we’d never done before and one of the things was get married so we were like “how about it?” “Yeah, alright” and that was that.

I took her to the planetarium. That's where we had our first date. Um, she walked in, and I had the room filled with lilies, her favourite flower. Then Fred Astaire singing The Way You Look Tonight came on the sound system and the lights came down and I got down on one knee and written across the dome in the stars were the words Will You Marry Me?

I got engaged years ago (I was around 19 so young and stupid) but sadly it never went further. I’d been talking to a lass for well over a year and we’d got really close without meeting and started long distance dating. Eventually I traveled to meet the lass and after spending the day with her we ended up going walking through a wood, out of the blue I said I didn’t want to date her anymore which got the reaction you’d expect of her getting upset but before that took on too much I dropped to the knee and pulled a ring out my back pocket. We were engaged for a year or so but things went south and we eventually broke up.

I had planned it for ages.

Pinched one of her rings to make sure the engagement ring was the right size.

Me met on Fab and it was only right that it played a part in the rest of our lives.

At one of our parties, at Hellfire club, I was hosting and after the fun comedy prizes were given out, my best man to be said there was ‘one more prize to give’.

In front of the whole party I proposed, gave Becky the ring… She said yes and sobered up very quickly.!

She knew nothing about it and was gobsmacked.

We celebrated with a fabulous night.

My wife loves penguins and I heard a story about how penguins give their partner a rock and then they stay together for life. So I arranged a day out at the zoo and found a quiet area near the penguins and looked into her eyes and then completely bottled it.

We had a lodge with a hot tub booked so I just did it there. She was so excited she still technically hasn’t said yes.

My second engagement was quite romantic. We had gone on holiday to Kefalonia (lovely place - roads are a nightmare).

We were on the beach and went for a swim when I see him looking down at something. I thought he was looking at the fish so kept my distance. He calls over “come and have a look at this”. I say no, thinking he’s found a big fish. Then he says “I’ve found something”. I swim over eventually (reluctantly) and he holds his hand out and opens his palm - there is a ring “oh wow someone’s lost that” says I. “Try it on” he says. “Won’t fit me I have large fingers”. “Try it on” he says, through gritted teeth. Then it dawned on me what was happening

it fitted.

At a family friends' wedding his mum said to me you should get married, go and ask him.

So I went up to him, while he was chatting to the bride and groom, and said your mum thinks we should get married, shall we? He said ok, and within half an hour his mum had decided on the date, the venue of the reception and the church-as he said he wouldn't get married in a particular one everyone local gets married in.

We’d already booked the wedding before he “officially” proposed (long story) outside a closed florists on the way for a meal at a village restaurant we’d both been wanting to try. I didn’t want a ring as I’m not a big jewellery wearer but over 4 months later & exactly a year to the day before we got married he gave me a beautiful ring in a gorgeous location. We’re heading back there for our anniversary

It was a two stage process really.

We were in bed talking about how much we loved each other, and wanted it to be forever. Then she said: 'are you saying you want to get married?' I pulled a haribo Jelly ring out of the bag and proposed. We were laughing, but we went ring shopping the next day.

These messages are almost, almost making me consider I might want another relationship one day. The feelings will probably have disappeared by the time I have typed this message as I’m mid divorce at moment lol, but I’m really happy there are still some cute and romantic people out there somewhere if this feeling ever returns lol

We’d just got up on Valentine’s Day and he handed me a card, when I took it out of the envelope it said to my fiancée on it, I looked at him and he had the ring box open.

Inside was the ring I’d described so much that I’d love - he’d had it made for me

We had decided not to get married due to finances but his gran passed and left us a little bit of money. We had a look around to see how much a wedding might cost us and went to see the local village hall. They only had 2 dates left so we provisionally booked one and then went to look at the church. Booked that and as we walked back to the car he stopped me and said something like I better actually propose now ??

We were walking home one day and he said we should probably get married. I laughed, thinking he was joking and say yeah probably should.

The next day he gave me his credit card and told me to go buy myself a ring.

Looking back now, not entirely surprised that we are divorced

He asked.

He'd put petals all round the bedroom, lit candles and got all dressed up. Last minute plot twist - my son's (useless) father failed to collect him for a weekend away so most of Mr KC's best laid plans evaporated and he had to include a 5yo boy in the proposal.

No drinking involved, it was a Friday evening, after I'd come back from revising for uni finals in the library

Ring fit because he'd snaffled one of the ones I don't wear much to get the size. He had it designed specially because I have fat fingers and the "off the shelf" ones could not be sized up enough without spoiling them.

We were on holiday in Crete and had spent the day on a gorgeous beach till the sun went down.

There was a small restaurant just off the beach and as we sat there feeling mellow and happy he reached across the table, held my hand and asked me to marry him

Got her ring size under the guise of getting an old one of her grandma's resized to fit her.

Booked a cabin with hot tub, ordered her favourite food and told her to dress nice as we were gonna have a nice romantic meal, me suit and her nice dress. This was on valentines day.

I placed a card under a pillow on the sofa, I asked her to turn round and grab it for me and as she did, I got down on one knee. Her face when she turned back was a picture. Proposal, fitting ring and a valentine's day card addressed to Fiancee just to polish it up. She said yes.

To finish up had a bottle of champagne on chill and I had taken the liberty of putting petals on the bed and a big bunch of flowers in the room for her too.

We got married this year.

Awe well that's pretty cute and I'm glad he was aware of his surroundings.

I remember my partner became very secretive about his phone. And he had never ever been like that during all our years together, but after weeks of seeing him hide his phone and take it everywhere with him I ended up asking if he was cheating on me and got pretty upset and then he showed me all the messages and ring order and asked if I would marry him. I think he knew I'd stumble across all the evidence.

I wish I had a cute story that didn't make me look so crazy but nevermind.

Not the most romantic of ways, she saw ring she liked I bought it few days later gave her it with a box of chocolates didn’t do the knee thing or ask. It was something she wanted wasn’t long after she fucked off with someone else and one of the many things we thought would fix everything.

I hammered it flat in the garage when she announced she was leaving she had stopped wearing it long before anyways it’s still upstairs somewhere been meaning to sell it to one of those gold buyer places
