Unique Marriage Proposals - Ideas and Suggestions

Unique marriage proposals are those that are special to both the man and the woman.

While the man is generally the one proposing, the event should be something he will look back fondly on, as will his partner. It should demonstrate his individuality as well as mark the beginning of a whole new phase of two people's life.

The traditional marriage proposal, of course, has the man on one knee asking for his lady's hand in marriage. This timeless format has come down through the ages and is found in cultures all around the world.

Though the method may not be a unique marriage proposal to most people any longer, when you couple it with something that is special - a leisurely dinner for two complete with champagne or fine wine, a week-end at a resort, or a couple's spa retreat, it becomes very meaningful.

Often, it is the small things that make the proposal special; remembering the rose petals or her favorite fragrance, incorporating a trip down the rapids because she loves the thrill, or acknowledging she is a vegetarian and wining and dining her accordingly. It is most important that the proposal feels special, whether it is carefully thought out or spur of the moment. Simple or complex - it is from the heart that will win her heart.

Today, for irresistible and unique marriage proposals, the trend seems to be either something outlandish, or if you make a fool of yourself, you will make an impression! Well, there are some pretty wacked out proposals - billboards, banners across the office wall first thing in the morning or outside her bedroom window, or kidnapping her for a getaway weekend that she has no idea about.

And then you could get a few friends to kidnap her for you while you wait for her on bended knee. The internet is another fun way to propose. Send a virtual image of a diamond to your girlfriend with a creative message asking for her hand.

Another great way to propose is to call your girlfriend's favorite radio station. Give her a bath and body spa basket in her favorite fragrance, set up candles, and hopefully when she is up to her neck in bubbles with the music soft, the question comes just as softly from the lips of the announcer's lips. "If you are listening out there Grace, Bob is hopelessly in love with you and would like to marry you at your earliest convenience."

Weekend escapes are becoming increasingly popular for unique marriage proposals, too. They are perfect because they are the perfect opportunity to be creative - even for a man. For instance, a stay on the beach together can come with a love poem and proposal in the sand where you are sunbathing. Once the message has been read, the diamond can be produced.

And then there are the ones that are so corny that they work every time, like taking the engagement ring and tying a string to it. At the appropriate time (and with the other end of the string tied around your finger), tell her you have a gift for her, although there is a minor string attached!!
