I proposed to my girlfriend in blackpool.We had gone away for the weekend and was having a nice stroll on the beach, She went and sat on the steps so i went walking to the sea, i found a stick and wrote "will you marry me" in the sand.She laughed cause she didnt think i was serious.Now 4 weeks later were on the rocks due to her getting loads of hassle at work.

 I took the day off work one day and suprised her at home. I gave her a rose. Wrapped around the stem and secured by the engagement wring was a note written in crayon - "Will you marry me - Check yes or no". She's still got that note in her drawer. :-D

Got some lunch, bought a few bits and pieces when my boyf suddenly said he needed a battery for his watch. We went into this jewellery store that I often got a few tthings - earrings etc and when the assistant came over to us to see if we were ok, he asked could we look at engagement rings... So we looked at all the rings, finally chose one, he bought a huge bouqet of flowers and got down on one knee and proposed...... it was lovely.....

 We went to stay the night at a hotel for our first year bf/gf anniversary. First we went on a road trip, then he took me to a steak house with a view of the city and then to the hotel. When we got there, in our room, I asked for my anniversary gift (I am like a little girl with gifts) and kinda ruined it. But still, he laid by mi side in the bed and looked at my eyes and told me how much he loved me and how he wanted to see me old and wrinkled, we laughed and he took out the ring and proposed. We had talked about getting married (we were already living together) but it was so nice of a surprise that he chose the ring and gave it to me in the most unexpected moment. Be warned he had asked what kind of rings I liked before hand as in some casual conversations when going through a jewelery in the mall (I'm really specific about what I like).
Anyways, six months later we married in the beach which was great and beautiful and romantic.

 Actually, happytochat, that was all it cost, except for the rings (that we would really have had to buy anyway) and we went out for a meal that evening (which again we would have done anyway from time to time). No guests, except a couple of friends to sign the register. No ceremony except for the minimum with the registrar to make it "legal", which cost only the £26 he had quoted.
So romantic, eh? LOL. That will be twenty years ago next March, and I haven't touched another woman since.... unless you count looking and thinking about it as being unfaithful - in which case I'm guilty about twenty times a day!

Lol interesting story, uncle_sneaker. But you do realise it actualy would of been cheaper for her to change her name becuase the costs for the wedding ceremony would of been more right?

 We were in a crowded bar. Which was more like a general question.
I said I am not going to say yes or no here, not romantic enough.
A week later we went to look at rings, and he booked a nice table in a nice restaurant, to be romantic.
All quite pre-planned really as it was building up over a few weeks. Somebody I knew at the time, thought of us as already engaged, just that I wasn't having a ring LOL.
So yea, good memories! Still together!

Me: Will you marry me?
Her: Don't be silly.
[three months later]
Me: Will you marry me?
Her: Don't be silly.
[two years and a baby later]
Me: Will you marry me?
Her: Don't be silly.
[18 months later]
Me: You remember when I applied for my job I told them I was married?
Her: Yes. Well, we are married. Sort of.
Me: Um. You know I got top salesman this year?
Her: Yes, we've got a week in Barbados, haven't we?
Me: I have. And my wife. Your name on your passport is different to mine. It's very specific. They don't allow "girlfriends". Anyway, they might get difficult because I said I was married and they'll know I'm not.
Her: I'll change my name. Go to the register office tomorrow and find out how much it costs.
[Next evening]
Me: It cost £32 to change your name.
Her: It's cheaper than getting married.
Me: No it's not. At the register office it cost £26 to get married. I checked.
Her: Did you? Why?
[Next day at work. Telephone call. It's her:]
Her: I suppose you had better go and book the wedding then.
Me: [Startled] OK.

I was contemplating moving out of home to be closer to school, he did not really want me to as then we would be farther apart, so he came up with, do you want to get married or what! ( I asked what the or what was, but have never found out what) We have been married now for 27 years!

 Bit unromantic really, he first asked me in a night club by text when I went to the toilet!!! But as his divorce wasnt finalised (he left her before I met him) we didnt really act on it but knew we would get married eventually. When I fell pregnant 6 months later (planned) we sort of decided that we wanted to be married before baby arrived so he stopped outside a jewellers in town one day and suggested it was time to buy me a wedding ring and we were married 12 weeks later. I told him not to bother with an engagament ring but when we went to collect the wedding rings he asked me to try some on as he wanted to get me one at a later date. He chose a very expensive 3 diamond platinum ring to match the wedding rings for me to try and then bought it for me then and there. When we got home he got down on one knee and asked me properly, even though the wedding was booked for a month later, ahh bless him! x

 My fiance asked me on the steps of Sydney Opera House.
I don't really recall much of the day before that but I remember every little detail of that moment and the ones following.

 My brother is the romantic in my family, took his lady to the end of a peir, where waiting for her was 25 lilies. In each lily was a card that explained a different reason why he wanted to marry her. This was done at sunset on their 2 year anniversary. His girl is still speechless, and guys should use this as an example. Girls love this kind of creativity.
