So, I'm planning on doing it this summer, but don't know how yet.
My best friend is getting married in June and him and his fiancée want me to do it at their reception, have a song played and just me and my lady on the dance floor.
Good or bad idea?
I like the fact that it would be in front of a lot of friends, documented and we'd be dressed up nicely, but also worried it would take away from the specialness of that particular day..
Thoughts?

i would never propose at a wedding reception.....
seems like it would take away from teh wedding....and if something bad goes down in either relationship, you don't want that tainting a wedding day.
It's really about what she thinks and wants.. If it were up to me, I'd propose before I leave for work one morning and we'd be married in the chapel of love and it would all be just as meaningful to me.
NOT AT ANOTHER WEDDING!!!!!!
BAD IDEA!!!!!!!!
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

I agree
It's not all that difficult. I realize people want a gimmick, or want to do something "original" or whatever, but I don't think there's anything wrong with being traditional about it. You don't need an "idea" or whatever. Just take her out for a romantic evening, and when the time feels right get down on one knee and bust out the ring. Just tell her you love her, you want to spend the rest of your life with her, and bust out the ring. It doesn't have to be some YouTube worthy moment or anything.

5 minutes later the guy pipes up and asks the group to gather round. People are looking at eachother a bit confused, and I am thinking, no man don't do it. He then says "I wanted to do this earlier but Mike beat me to it, so here goes" He then proposed to his very embarrassed looking girlfirend, who said yes.. to this day I am not sure if she meant it and you could see how hard it was for her. She was mortified and looked at us as if to apologise. He really should have waited for another day. People who we spoke to after said it was cringeworthy as the moment had passed, we had taken it, and anybody in their right mind would have thought "fair enough, back to the drawing board"...
Anyway, my point is, doing it during someone elses "moment" will not only take away from theirs, but it will take away form yours. I say this honestly and urge you to choose your own time and place which is special to you and your other half, and only you two..... its all about YOU. No one else.
"I need your strength for me to be strong...I need your love to feel loved"

but with deeper forethought you might want to reconsider.
A marriage proposal is a very special lifetime moment between life mates.
However you plan this pledge you will make, it is and will be a very precious memory.
As the years go by it will become even more meaningful.
Me personally would not want or need an audience, it is intimate, never forgotten
and begins your life together.
I agree with Speedy...
hehehehehehe

Congratulations! what a happy time in your life!!
Doing it in front of everyone is too much pressure especially for her, plus one thing that she will want to do is tell everyone individually right after
done

Next!"
she might be too freaked out to say yes tho.
i walked past those glass cubes several times last thursday and i just couldnt do it.
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me

i have no trouble looking down and in fact on several occasions had my forehead pressed against the glass.. but just the fact that there were other bodies on the glass made me nervous. if im gonna plunge to my death id rather it not be cause of the weight of others.

i was weighing up between hancock and sears and sears won cause not only is it in my bueller mind but its taller. in this case size really did matter.
