Fall is one of my favorite seasons, we were actually thinking of getting married in Autumn but pushed back our wedding date to the following Spring. Every year we take the kids to the pumpkin patch and my husband gets creative with his pumpkin and carves my name or our favorite sports team into it. Just think how surprised you would be if after going to the pumpkin patch your boyfriend turns his carved pumpkins around with this proposal message on it! It would certainly be a Halloween to remember!

Birthday Surprise Marriage Proposal...

It's just a birthday dinner date with your boyfriend, no big deal right? How much would you love to be surprised on your birthday with a marriage proposal! I love these two, they are so chic and romantic! The groom wrote his girlfriend little love notes letting her know what an exciting day she was about to have. It would begin with a surprise shopping spree with her sister and would end with dinner. When she arrived for their date, he handed her one more love note and got down on one knee...and the rest is history! Sometimes it's the little things that make a big impact.

Marriage Proposal Cake...

If your guy is thinking about cooking your favorite meal or taking you out to your favorite restaurant, this adorable cake that looks just like a Tiffany engagement ring box would be a sweet way for him to propose. At the restaurant he could ask the manager if your waiter could bring out this special dessert for you and get down on one knee as you take it all in. However, if he is looking for something more private, he could hide this in a box in the fridge and bring it out after he has cooked for you at home.

Proposal in a Box...

I adore this idea and would really love to see photos of a groom using this DIY proposal in a box to pop the question to his girlfriend. The idea is to send this proposal in a box to your loved ones, have them take photos of each other holding up the banner, throwing the confetti, and using the noisemakers, and then arrange the photos to be part of your proposal. You could burn the pictures to a DVD and as you are watching the slide show get down on one knee, or you could post them in a notebook with little love notes and as she looks over at you, you are waiting with the engagement ring in hand.

Do you share a love of Chinese food and have a tradition of breaking the fortune cookie together? How sweet would this proposal be when you have no idea that your boyfriend is about to pop the question as you are breaking the fortune cookie open and you read, "Will you marry me?". Your boyfriend could either slip in the fortune cookie after your order is delivered to your house or he could ask the waiter to bring this special fortune cookie to your table if you are eating out. Either way, you will never forget the time you had Chinese food and he asked you to marry him!

No matter how your guy proposes, it will always be a moment the two of you will share together forever. Whether it's written in the sky or on the inside of your fortune cookie, it is a romantic and sweet way to propose because it came from his heart. Which of these sweet ways to propose is your favorite and how did your guy propose?
