The Proposals That Set The Bar For All Proposals To Ever Be Made

All proposals are sweet but these ones have set the bar very, very high.

Alanna Alexander

It’s Proposal Day! We didn’t know that was an actual day but turns out the day was arranged so that long-term couples could get a “glimpse of how the person you love might feel about a marriage proposal.”

For us, it is the day that we get to spend some time watching cheesy proposal videos.

We’re convinced we’ve seen them all so we boldly give you our list of favourite proposals yet:

1. The one that we got to be a part of:

“Tell him yes. Even if you are dying of fear, even if you are sorry later, because whatever you do, you will be sorry all the rest of your life if you say no.” ~Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez

2. The guy who wrote a book about their relationship, had it illustrated, printed and then took his woman to a library to read it to him.

3. The one that made us want to dance in warehouse-like store.

4. The one that scared us and made us jealous all at the same time.

5. The adorable adventurous one.

He made water-skiing the second best thing of the day (ie he achieved the impossible).

6. The one that made us so happy even though we knew it wasn’t real life.

7. The one that must have taken ages to organize.

Imagine having all your friends and family in a musical about your life. All the people you love in one place, together. Could this be the perfect one?

8. The perfect one.
