"Will You Marry Me?”
The Top Ten Ways to Ask for Her Hand

Written by the editors of UnGroom'd

No matter how long you’ve known each other, and even if she knows your going to do it, you must propose in a way that’ll make her melt. It’s the story she’s going to repeat to the girls in front of the water cooler. Here are ten ways guys before you have proposed. (There are many more at marryingman.com.)


In Front of 75,223 People

Take her to a ball game and have the announcer broadcast it, or have it lit up 40 feet tall. Make sure you do it in the first hour, just in case your team gets trounced and she wants to leave. MarryingMan provides contact information about every major sports arena in the nation


Bring on the Little Toy Surprise.

(Not what you’re thinking, that’s for after you marry)

No, we’re talking Cracker-Jack. Use a utility knife to undo the underside of the box. Do the same with the ‘toy surprise’ pouch. Slip your ring inside, replace the contents and glue it shut. Introduce the box while you’re watching a video. If she’s like anyone who ever ate the snack, she’ll dive right for the prize, but because it is so dark, she’ll think it’s a toy and slip it on. Then watch her face as she slowly gets it.


Ask Her In Front of Her Family

What woman would say no when you turn to her father and ask for his daughter’s hand? As always, timing is everything, so do this when the food is served, about ½ hour into the meal, when a quiet has settled over the table. It may begin, “I’ve known Donna now for 2 years…” Remember, do not take a sip of wine or beer before your question, because that’s the first thing the family is going to look for when you pop the question.


Get a Million Hits on Your Website

This page is found on the web: Hey! Thanks for coming to my web page. This page was created in hopes that I could get married to the woman I love. When my girlfriend and I were talking about the internet and web pages in just a normal conversation, I said that it was possible for millions of people to visit one page on the web. My girlfriend didn't think it could happen. We made a bet about it, and I said that if I won she would have to marry me. This was intended to be a joke, but she actually agreed to this bet!! If i get 1 MILLION HITS on this page, she will really marry me. Come on, help a guy out. Visit MarryingMan.com and we’ll show you where to link. http://www.tidalwave.net/~Magic/marriage.html


Use Your Heart.

This may be the hardest of all. It’s unplanned, completely spontaneous and happens at a moment when it absolutely should. It usually comes right after a huge laugh at something only the two of you would get, after that that deep sigh by both of you grabbing your next breath you say, “Will you marry me?”


The Wedding Magazine

Men never buy them. That’s why it would be so odd to have one on your coffee table. Sit her at the table, while you make dinner. Of course she can’t resist opening it, to a page that you’ve bookmarked. As you uncork the Champaign, you’ll hear her scream at the customized page that you’ve inserted into the publication. These mags are so thick that at the turn of the page could be a hallowed out section holding her ring.


A Strip-O-Gram

Have her office workers throw her a birthday party in a conference room, promising her a male stripper. After cake and soda, she sits down for her stripper, but instead, you walk in with a fresh tux and fresher flowers, get down on one knee, and pop the question. Everyone will be grateful that a male stripper didn’t show. No one wants to see that.


Make a PowerPoint Proposal

One guy, an artist, made a comic book that chronicled his 2-year relationship with his girlfriend, right down to the current day’s picnic. His girlfriend turned the last page and his caricature looked up from the page and asked her to marry him. Now if you’re not an artist, you may want to do a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation that will do the same thing. Hey, PowerPoint was made for proposals; you’re just using it for a different kind. Compile photos and artwork from your time together. You can even add a little drama by showing how drab your life was without her. On the last frame you look up and ask her.


Make a Paper Chase

Leave a note on her door, saying to look on the fridge. On the fridge you have a note to get the Raisin Bran from the pantry. On and on, you lead her right into her bedroom; where on her dresser is a new jewelry box. She opens it to find her ring, your proposal and a cell phone with a button programmed right to you.


The Montel Sell

Montel is always looking for themes. Why not plan a visit to the show where the two of you sit in the audience for a show called: ‘I Love My Dog and I’m Not Afraid to Admit it.’ When Montel comes out he calls the show, ‘Surprise Proposals,’ walks right up to you, hands you the ring, and you do the rest.
