We were in our hotel room in Las Vegas after taking funny photos of ourselves in front of the little white chapel! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-999194 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 11:02:38 +0000 Turd Ferguson 999194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! We were in Paris in our hotel room at the end of the night. He said he was going to do it at all of these spots throughout the city, but nothing felt "right" due to the ridiculous crowds of people and stuff (and I am NOT a people person). It was perfect! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-999183 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 11:00:15 +0000 lemondrop 999183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, he absolutely just had to go hiking in Sedona that weekend... and I had a bad cold and felt like crap, it was stormy out, and I proceeded to complain for the entire 1 1/2 hour drive.</p> <p>He stopped at one of our first hikes from dating and I told him I didn't want to, but he convinced me to go part way up. He got on one knee, but I have no idea what he said, I was in complete shock and asked him if he was kidding me. I started to feel a lot better after that :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-999003 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:13:31 +0000 cascademom 999003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: It was really special. I was such a brat that day too. I wanted to wear pajamas for opening up gifts, but had to change. I picked the ugliest sweater I had off of the floor for it. My mom wanted to take pictures which is so rare, so it was weird all around. Everything leading up to it was weird. I didn't notice any of it until after. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-998303 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 06:50:09 +0000 GrapeCrush 998303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes he did. And he just proposed in our apartment, just the two of us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-998164 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 02:19:30 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 998164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: That's awesome! I love Christmas, and I can imagine how extra special that made it!</p> <p>@travellingbee: aw!</p> <p>@Meridian: Wow!</p> <p>My DH did. We were all singing Karaoke in his parents' basement, and we had just sung, "You're the one that I Want" from Grease together. We did awful and I just wanted to sit down, but he got down on one knee and said "You're the one that I want..forEVER!" lol Then some other stuff that I totally forget. :(<br /> And it's all on video! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-998023 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 23:25:39 +0000 twinmama 998023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Apparently it's not traditional in dh's culture...it's preferred to start things off on 'equal footing'. I was kind of disappointed at first, but once he explained, I appreciate the sentiment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-998018 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 23:17:01 +0000 SweetiePie 998018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, we were in a helicopter! Though he's not very traditional so I'm not sure he would have anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997979 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 22:21:43 +0000 Weagle 997979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, in Barcelona at my absolute favorite spot in the city. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997975 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 22:19:08 +0000 googly-eyes 997975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: Love that pic! Very sweet. </p> <p>I honestly had to think about it for a second but yeah dh did! I can't believe I had to think about it to remember...we've only been married three years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997966 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 22:03:09 +0000 808love 997966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: Aw so sweet! </p> <p>Yes, I had to tell him to stand up because he wouldn't until I said yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997955 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 21:56:41 +0000 JamieLee 997955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: love it! Haha. I believe I was in pajamas. But it was like midnight or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997921 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 21:43:18 +0000 Penny Lane 997921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope! i'm not sure it even counted as a proposal :P we ordered the ring online together (can't buy moissanite in person in NZ) and checked the tracking every day together for the THREE WEEKS it took to arrive. It arrived while I was at school, and when I got home that night he told me I couldn't see it until I passed a quiz. the quiz was "will you marry me" said in a whisper while he was sitting on his bed, because we didn't want to wake his room mate up. Lol! Epically unromantic ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997908 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 21:37:37 +0000 Mrs. Pen 997908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup! and we have pictures of it too &lt;3 </p> [attach=1597/13/mr6xyr.398x600.Carissa-dan-125.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997896 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 21:31:06 +0000 mrs. bird 997896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JamieLee: I made him ask too! He said something about the wife in the household, and I told him there were no wives here in a very unpleasant tone while continuing to read the paper, he fussed with something next to the bed &amp; then said, 'well there is now' when I looked past the paper he had gotten out a ring, I replied, 'well are you gonna at least ASK?!?' haha. And then he got to have a beer in the morning, lol. I took this pic right after, he was a scruffy mess! I'm not in it as I was nekkid! I hope you were at least clothed for the proposal :wink: </p> [attach=2301/13/mr6xp6.399x600.image.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997887 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 21:21:47 +0000 dolphin 997887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and I bawled like a baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997873 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 21:14:42 +0000 MsLipGloss 997873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: It was . . . what broke the moment a little was when DH said *well, aren't you gonna look at it?* He wanted me to see my ring, and I was just so happy that he proposed that I hadn't looked at what he put on my hand. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997620 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 19:21:15 +0000 littlek 997620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Reese: awwwwww </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997576 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:52:08 +0000 Reese 997576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. In the exact spot he first told me he loved me (7 years prior) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997575 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:49:56 +0000 yoursilverlining 997575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, he was so nervous he didn't propose traditionally at all. One weekend morning while still in bed, he went out of the room then came back in with a ring box and he looked like he was going to cry (or throw up), handed me the ring and didn't say anything at all. I said "uh, what is this?" and he managed to stammer out that he wanted to get married, and was wondering if I wanted to get married too. LOL we never talked about marriage beforehand, so I was completely surprised! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997539 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:34:20 +0000 JamieLee 997539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: that kind of sounds like my proposal. He told me he had a present for me and held the ring out and I made him actually say the words...lol. Also sitting on the bed. Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997489 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:08:54 +0000 Alivoo01 997489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997486 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:08:10 +0000 MamaBehr 997486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek We high fived! hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997366 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 17:07:03 +0000 MrsTal 997366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! He went down on one knee at first then both knees because it was so rocky and uneven. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997351 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 16:58:46 +0000 BKCaribBaby 997351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, right on the East River with the Brooklyn Bridge in the background. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997316 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 16:43:45 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 997316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup!</p> <p>We decide to get married and even went ring shopping together. DH wanted there to be some element of surprise to the engagement, though, so even though I knew he was going to propose I had no idea when.</p> <p>We went to Las Vegas with a large group of people in may 2007 and he proposed to me half way through the trip. He did get down on one knee! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-husband-go-down-on-one-knee-when-he-proposed/page/2#post-997315 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 16:43:43 +0000 Ash 997315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! </p>
