    Our proposal wasent all big and planned out. He had been telling me for a few weeks he had a plan for it but it wasent happening any time soon. So I wasent expecting it. One night we were laying on the floor after finishing some nachos and we were watching an old Abbott and Costello black and white movie. Laughing away I looked at him and said I cant wait to marry you some day. He smiled and said "will you though" I thought he was joking and laughed, he didnt. I said wait are you asking me something, he smiled and kissed me I broke out crying and shook my head yes. He didnt even have a ring yet, but said he just felt like that was the moment and he has to do it right then. It was perfect. Very us. I wouldn't change anything about it. Two weeks later he told me something was coming that he ordered and it's very important I watch for it and make sure it gets there. We lived in an apartment at the time so they were labeled a,b,c...etc. I watched out the window for ups and they came but the driver didn't get out and drove away. I was kinda like something isnt right and I chased after ups down the street until his next stop. Turns out he put the address but not the unit number so they couldn't deliver it. Got the box, called bryan at work and told him what happened. When he got home from work he took the box upstairs for awhile. Came back down with a ring BUT he didnt actually put it in the ring box. He put it on top of the box LOL. It was a special Disney enchanted ring he ordered. And he said there I got a ring lol. It was so us...funny. both moments made me laugh even if I wasent supposed to.

    My FH proposed. On our 4 year anniversary, he recreated our first Valentine's Day date together. We went to the same park. On our first Valentine's Day, we climbed up a mountain, but only went half way. This time, he was really adamant about going up all the way and I was just so confused as to why. When we got up there, we sat and talked, and he told me how much he loved me, and I turned around to look at the view and when I turned back around, he was down on one knee, I was super shocked and surprised to say the least. I honestly wasn't expecting it at that moment. The ring was a surprise. My ring is kind of different for an engagement ring but it was EXACTLY spot on with what I wanted without me having to pick it out! He knows me so well.

    It happened on memorial day this year. My fiance, Matt, and I went to Salem, MA where he bought me a psychic reading at one of the shops there.

    After the reading was done, he asked me how was the reading, I walked to him and told it was good.

    Then he asked me as he got down on one knee, "Do you want to make it better?" Then said "will you marry me?" As he pulled out the ring.
    I saw the ring and first said "Awww" then thought to myself say yes. Then I said yes, and I was putting it on my right hand and he helped put it on.

    I switched it to the left at the end of the day when someone pointed it out to me, wrong hand.

    The ring was not exactly a surprise it was one of two of my favorites. The proposal was a surprise though.

    We have no pictures of the proposal as we were alone and Matt didn't rig the reading.

    So he purposed to me on christmas day 2017. He did it super privately with no one around.... I was laying down getting a back massage from FH. When all of a sudden he stops and tells me to sit up so I do. And he hands me a Pandora box.... I was thinking I was going to get another Pandora charm it instead it was a ring and I was so surprised .... I started crying.

    Allison, that is adorable!! The question is - did the psychic tell you that he was going to propose soon!?

    P.S. I'm a Massachusetts native who recently moved away and will miss Salem this upcoming Halloween Smiley sad

    Was he trying to trick you with the Pandora box or was it just an empty box that was available to fill?!

    So, it was a day after my birthday a group of us went to New York to celebrate 3/10 people birthday. We went to time square to tour and to see all the beautiful lights. It started to rain a little so we all had umbrellas. We were just standing around for a minute and he asked my friend to take a picture of us. So she took the picture, then he was like can you hold the umbrella. I grabbed the umberlla and asked my friend if I could see the picture. When I turned around he was on one knee asking the big question!!
