Total surprise. I was out of town visiting my family for the weekend on Easter. I came home and he had me an Easter basket. I was going through the stuff and he told me to keep digging. Under the grass was a ring box. It was sweet.0

We went to a WI State Park for the day to see the beautiful waterfall (our 1st date was at a waterfall). He brought a picinic lunch, so after hiking and taking many wonderful pictures of the falls, we ate. After lunch he said he had a present to give to me. It was a beautiful jewelry box he had made, in-laying different woods and all. Inside it was padded and lined with blue fabric, but empty. Now I have to admit, I was a little disapointed to see it empty (I thought it may have a ring in it)... but I loved it all the same. Then he said he had to show me something. He took the box from me and removed the padding in the bottom. Under it was a note. The note said "Marry Me" and as I was reading he got down on one knee with the ring (which he had hidden partially under the fabric over the padding he took out). I said "of course I will!" and hugged/kissed him before he even put the ring on my finger. Then he did the sweetest thing of all. He took the jewelry box from me and flipped it over. On the bottom were the initials "JLH", my future initials w/his last name. He then took out some sparkling cider and 2 wine glasses and we had a toast to our engagement! It was a wonderfully romantic day that I will never forget!
I hope your boyfriend does something great! :-)0 -

Bottom of the third at Wrigley! I knew it was coming on that trip to Chicago but I was still totally caught off guard0

It was over the phone, and he said, "I think we should get married before the baby comes."
We're divorced.0 -
He hid the ring on top of the Christmas tree. He bought me this beautiful jewelry box and inside he had a hint of where my 'next present' would be. I was a little confused so he had to help me LOL I can't believe I never saw the ring up top....once I saw where it was....I should have seen it a mile away LOL He said it was up there for over a week!0

I have a funny story about that! My husband had the most elaborate plan ever - a walk to a beautiful waterfall, a table set for two with a picnic dinner, champagne, candlelight and a violinist playing on the rocks above the waterfall. It was going to be epic! All of this was going to be a total surprise to me. I had no idea he was anywhere close to proposing.
But the day he picked up the ring from the jeweler, he got so excited and could not wait another minute. He called me at work and asked if he could bring me lunch. I said 'Of course'! He hopped on his bike, stopped by Arby's for roast beef sandwiches and curly fries (yes, really!) and showed up 15 minutes later. He handed me a bag of fast food and said 'Damn... I can't wait another minute to ask you... will you marry me!?'
I said yes, and we shared a good laugh about how the proposal went down.0 -
Hubby & i met on line he lived in Florida and i lived in Kentucky. He Texed me while i was at work
Will you marry me? And i texed back Yes..0 -
He came home from boot camp in July of 2009. He told me he was going home but instead he came to chicago. He called me at like 2 am and told me that there was a meteor shower going on and he wanted me to get a picture. I went down stairs in my shorts and t shirt with my hair tied all gross and he was there. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said yes and passed out(:0
-
We found out I was pregnant & he asked me to marry him a couple weeks later. The ring came after.
*sigh* I keep hoping he'll do something romantic to make up for it.... 8 years later?....I'm still waiting
But hey I can keep hoping- & if he ever *does* do something then I'll be REALLY surprised :laugh:0 -

Long story short... It was a surprise! We along with a bunch of friends were at our favorie karaoke bar one Saturday night... I was called up on stage and infront of all of our friends and the entire bar and then he proposed!... Wow, talk about being in total shock since apparently all of my friends and the bar staff knew he was proposing that night! It was a great night !0

I wish I had a big story. LOL. I nagged him for a year (we lived together for two before that) and he told me he couldn't make it official 'til he was done with grad school, so on his last day of school, he took me to the jeweler. That was pretty much it. LOL
We got married in September. And now he's going for his doctorate. Ey, ey, ey!0 -

Your story sounds so close to what my husband planned, but never actually pulled off! LOL0 -
He took me on a horse drawn carriage ride in downtown Grand Rapids. He thought he had it all planned out. He said, "look at that" and pointed over my shoulder. The idea was for me to turn and look at the skyline, while he got the ring out of his pocket, but we had taken the bridge in the opposite direction and all I got to look at was pure darkness, lol.
Sadly, I tend to figure things out, so it was not at all a surprise. We had a date planned for a Saturday night and he refused to tell me where we were going (flag #1 - I'm not a fan of surprises and always convince him to tell me, but he would not budge). Then, his grandmother died and he refused to cancel our date (flag #2).0
