Top 10 Most Cliche Marriage Proposals
I’ll be the first to admit that I ogle over every marriage proposal that crosses my desk (see evidence here). And I fully accept that not every proposal is going to be the most over-the-top and unique. So, here’s our version of the top 10 most cliche marriage proposals. Calm down folks, we know they’re cliche for a reason: Because everyone does them and they’re tried and true!

No need for explanation here.An Airplane Banner
It's always exciting to see these, but what if you miss it -- that's a ton of money that just flew past you. Even worse: What if they spell her name wrong?!In Food or Booze
Truth: The ring doesn't come out all sparkly and clean. Then you're fumbling to clean it and make it presentable.On Top of a Ferris Wheel
Carnies creep me out.On a Horse-Drawn Carriage Ride
The crop and top hat kill the romance for me.In a Hot Air Balloon
What if she says no? You're high up in the sky, with someone who turned you down; things could get pretty uncomfortable. On a Reality TV Show
Because really, how many of them are still together?Faking Death or Horrible Accident

I’m so glad jumping out of a plane didn’t make your list:)
Woah, that is crazy! Did you both jump and he propose in mid-air??
My reply never showed up. How odd?? I wanted to jump out of a plane before turning 40, so I asked him if he’d join me. He was thrilled to do so, and somehow in the eight days before we jumped, he managed to purchase a ring, ask our kids and my family their thoughts on our marriage, and plot out a plan with the sky divers. I was the first out of the plane (SO AWESOME!), but he had to get on the ground before me, so his tandem guy subjected him to flips in the air and such to speed their descent. He loved it:) As I was coming in for my landing, he was on the ground holding up a big sign he’d hidden in his sky diving suit. There is a wonderful video version of me screeching through the air, “Are you frikkin kidding me??” Thankfully, I did not swear:)
My fiancé drove 4 hours away from where we were and proposed in the middle of a butterfly conservatory. We were the only ones in there
it was the best day!
My fiance popped the question in front of the castle at Disneyland. It was amazing.
I’m surprised Christmas wasn’t on here…
Aquarium (my favorite place) <3
There aren’t any nice beaches where we live, so he took me on vacation to Mexico.. And yes he proposed on the beach lol, in the middle of the night, it was just us two.
the ring didn’t fall anywhere thank God!
Last christmas my fiance wrapped up a little Build-a-Bear that had a little striped hoodie like his, glasses just like his, little converse just like his, covered in his cologne holding a beautiful little ring. When you press the bear’s hand it has his voice popping the question so i can listen to it over and over whenever i want <3 It had been wrapped under the tree the whole month. My whole family knew and no one blew the secret. Best christmas ever

My husband proposed in Ireland at the Cliffs of Moher on top of O’Brien’s tower there. Was so perfect!! And it’s my favorite place in the world!

My husband mowed out Will you marry me in our backyard! I am a photographer and thought I was shooting aerial photos that day and it turned out he was proposing! Never saw it coming! We have a video of it too that our pilot took for us!! Its an awesome keepsake! Here is the link to the video its on you tube if you would like to check it out
Lots of “What ifs…” here. Sounds like these are just bitter opinions…
My fiance planned out the proposal for a long time. He proposed on January 2nd in the exact spot where he first said “I love you” on the one year anniversary of the day he said it. And remembered the day and place on his own. He had a couple of friends hiding nearby to get pictures of my face and even set up an appointment-a month in advance- for me to go look at wedding dresses with my mom three days later because I go to school out of state and would have to wait too long to go if I didn’t go then. It was so sweet and so perfect. I’d take my intimate, sentimental proposal over something flashy any day. It was so perfect for him and me.

My fiance proposed at the place where we had our first official date. He had the ring in the music box from the movie “Anastasia.”
