I'm Getting Married in the Mornnninnng email this discussion to a friend?

Let’s assume that I'm going to pop the question to the love of my life … guys and gals … you can both reply to this one … even if you’re already married. After all, you have the experience.

So I’m going to take my love to a show, a fancy-schmancy dinner then to a secluded café for an after dinner drink and dancing.

I want to present her with an engagement ring, but I don’t want to do anything that’s been done before, ala putting the ring in her dessert or in her cocktail. I want something totally different.

So where should I hide the ring so she can find it?

Get creative. Change my plans if you like, but be sure that your “presentation” method is out of the ordinary.

Memo to self: You could put it in your nose. She’ll probably be leading you from it after the wedding. © 2008 RJScott

rjscott my you make me think ouch thats so hard.lol got an idea and since I am first nobody on here to make me feel sh*tty about my idea. buy her a pretty posy thing at the florist and tie the ring among the flowers but hidden enough so she will not see
'it til she actually picks up the pretty little posy. the florist can help you to hide it cleverly but where she will see it at once when she picks up the small posy. I know everyone puts the ring into food items so had to think of something else. I think most florists know what a posy is, its a small corsage like thingmade I believe in a circle of smallflowers, but the florist could make it up so the flowers are large enough to hide the ring. I am sure the florist will have an idea of just how to do this too.

Hatley, my friend, that's the idea: to make respondants think.

I'm not a posy person, so I don't know it that would work. I wonder if placing the ring into a can of Natural Light would work better.

why don't you get the waiter to present to her like he presenting a bottle of wine. its still romantic and its never been done before and your plans won't get changed


myLot reputation of 90/100. rjscott (1968)   ranked 147 out of 7,964 in love  4 weeks ago

Good thinking, Mouse ... but I'd be afraid that she'd marry the waiter instead ... and there goes my $10,000 diamond and sapphire ring, off with the waiter and his new bride-to-be.

And there go I, broken-hearted and $10,000 in debt!

Wrap the ring in a small heart shaped box and then place that box inside of a larger brown box. Pretend you got it in the mail and have her open it. while she is opening it like a gift get down on your knees and as the smaller heart shaped box slips out say "You have opened my heart and I am the only packege that I want you to open from now on. Please open me and my heart for the rest of my life and be my wife."

its just an idea!!
Good luck and God Bless!!:-)


myLot reputation of 90/100. rjscott (1968)   ranked 147 out of 7,964 in love  4 weeks ago

This might work, DM ... let me think about it ... and hope more ideas come in.

At my age it might be difficult to arise once I get down on my knees, and that could prove to be an embarrassment.

:D

I am sure mine will be a bit different and you'll have to forgive me as a my fiance's brother and my cousin (same person) is going to be coming over here later. Hmm, so my idea is that instead of all that shnazz it happen at home. Say My fiance and I were going to clean out my cousin's car and they hid the ring somewhere in the car. Somewhere where I wouldn't throw it away, but would need to sort through it (I.E.: Glove Box). I think that it would be very nice to find it and i'd be very happy and feel rewarded if I found it there.


(My fiance's brother and my cousin are the same person but this guy is of no relation to my fiance)

Well, that sure is a different approach.

Thanks for the well wishes, but I'm not getting married, or engaged. The discussion was a "what if" scenario.

When you go to the restaurant you can talk to the waiter so that in the end of your meal he brings out desert. Lets say its a cake, you can request that they write "will you marry me on it" Should be cute. I didn't have any surprise proposal because I wanted to choose my own engagement ring. Its nice that you want to do especially if she is not even expecting it. The only question I have for you is why did you write "lets assume" are you proposing? or was this just a topic? Good luck either way!


myLot reputation of 90/100. rjscott (1968)   ranked 147 out of 7,964 in love  4 weeks ago

Nope, I'm not getting married. This discussion was just meant to be a "what if" type of discussion.

Hi friend... It's my first post in this morning, and I am starting it with a hearty congratulation to you.
It's seemed that you are a little bit nervous right now, and it's quite obvious. You are going to enter a new life from now. But, there is nothing to be nervous buddy. You are going to marry that gal whom you know and love rom before. So, I don't thinkit'll be any problem atall. Do whatever, but make this day as memorable as you can.


myLot reputation of 90/100. rjscott (1968)   ranked 147 out of 7,964 in love  4 weeks ago

Hello Debjit,

Nope, I'm not nervous at all. I have no plans for getting married. This discussion was just meant to get input on the subject IF I were planning on proposing.

good day.. I know woman just love shoes, why not put that ring inside the box of her favorite shoe. When she sees it she'll be happy that you brought her the shoe she love and will be even happier when she opens it.


myLot reputation of 90/100. rjscott (1968)   ranked 147 out of 7,964 in love  4 weeks ago

I'm not too keen on this one. If the stone on the ring did not impress me, she might kick me with those Blahnik stilletos!

 
10. myLot reputation of 94/100. AshleyHasan (723)   ranked 2,155 out of 7,964 in love   4 weeks ago

Happy married life! I think may be you can give her a Gold plated artificial rose inside you can also hide the ring.


myLot reputation of 90/100. rjscott (1968)   ranked 147 out of 7,964 in love  4 weeks ago

Thanks for the well wishes. I'm not getting married, but your idea has merit.
