The thread about reaction to peoples engagement has lead me to wonder how everyone got proposed to, or proposed to their OH's.
I'm not engaged although I hope it will happen one day I do love to hear the stories!

My OH brought me a cup of tea in bed on News Years Eve and then proposed by getting down on one knee - it was lovely being just the two of us and then we spent the evening celebrating with friends.0

Paris, a bridge looking at the Eiffel Tower. I had been making jokes about him proposing during the holiday. So as we sat down on this bench at midnight and the tower lit up I said 'oh it's as if you'd planned it' (not realising that he had). Then I said 'Seriously if you ever do plan on proposing, you won't find a more romantic moment than this.'
At which point he got down on one knee and pulled out a ring!!!!:j:j:j0 -
Barcelona, in the old square, I would have got down on one knee but was wearing white linen trousers.0

I once saw a guy propose to his girlfriend on stage at Edinburgh Castle with Lionel Ritchie playing piano and singing Three times a lady whilst he got down on one knee. Think Id prefer something more intimate but was very romantic.:smileyhea0
