don't put the ring in food...because while that could be sweet and romantic, if she doesn't see the ring then she'll choke. Instead think about what shes into and try to fit a proposal into somthing like that. My dad proposed to my mom while walking through rose gardens, is there a place yall like to go that you could propose to her there?
Best of luck and congrats on finding the perfect girl!!!

Don't let your desire to make it "dramatic" overshadow the real event. Go for understated and classy (this means don't paint it on a wall, no skywritters, don't propose on the jumbotron at the basketball game, nothing with hiding the ring, etc....save all those for anniversaries, etc). Take her somplace special - a nice dinner, a lake you like to walk near, a balcony of a hotel near the beach, and take out the little box and propose..... Doing this way ensures that the focus is on the question and answer, the ring and the two of you....trust me, she'll remember it her whole life without some crazy antic.

Whatever you do, try to make it memorable and special because remember that when she tells people that she's engaged, inevitably the first question everyone will ask her is how you proposed.
You could go somewhere that is special and meaningful for her or for both of you (ie her favourite place, the place that you met or had your first date). Or something cool like in a hot air balloon. Sunset is a great time because it's always quite romantic.
Don't talk to much and don't do the whole 'we've been together for x years' thing because that is so boring and you better believe that she knows all that stuff better than you anyway. Keep it simple eg want to spend the rest of my life with - will you marry me.

Any way where she doesn't see it coming. And a lot of this depends on what kind of relationship you have. Some women want a lot of romance; or maybe the two of you are outdoor enthusiasts or movie buffs, or are big on dancing.....all of this plays into how you would ask her.
Then have a back up plan. This is because you never know for sure how things will turn out. Having a good back-up plan will help you redeem yourself just in case your original plan back fires.

Hotel suit or a lovely romantic spot where its just the two of you; Bubble bath-not too hot, rose petals spreaded all over the room and in the bath tube(jacuzzi). Soft music, dim the lights. Have her to come get in and allow her to relax and pour her a glass of wine. But slip the ring inside of it. Okay~ CONGRATS
Or you can take her on a Hot air balloon ride. Propose in the sky~

If you are in love with her, do't feel like you have to marry her to prove it. before you propose, you should think about a few things.
Do you want to spend the rest of your life with her? If you do, you should think about some of the things that could possible drive a wedge in between you two.
CHECK THIS OUT! www.drphil.com has a pre-marital checklist of things that we all forget to consider before jumping into marriage. Things like each of your views on kids, education, responsibility, where to live, who's family to see on holidays, who pays for what, savings and investments, religion, wedding planning, and much more. Do you two have much experience with dating other people? Did you pick this person out of all the ones you have "tried on for size" or did you limit yourself to just each other and this is the "expected next step"?
(In my experience, people become resentful and later on, cheat if they wonder what else is out there. For example, high school sweethearts, really young barely-legal kids, and long-trem relationships that started before entering the workforce as an adult).
When you have gone through this list (and you should becuase love and romance may cloud practical judgement) and you have an understanding (where each of your needs and expectations can be met without one of you having to sacrifice your own identity to be together and married) You can think of those cool proposal ideas....
A wedding is a day to celebrate your choice for a life partner, and it may be a bigger deal to some people than others. It is your chance to publicly declare "I picked this person!" in front of friends and family. Whether you want to ask them to be your life partner in public or not is your choice....
SOME IDEAS: A surprise is nice (ring box hidden under a napkin at a nice dinner).....or getting down on your knee in front of a bunch of people (shows honor and devotion) or simply asking her during an activity.....it all depends on how memorable or spontaneous you want the proplsal to be, what kind of person she is, if she embarrasses easily or has a lot of pride, and whether or not you'll think she says yes or no.
If you don't know, or have a doubt, do NOT surprise her in public. She will feel obligated, trapped, and resentful. If you are sure, then do it in public.
You have some thinking to do before you pop the question, so get to it! If you decide to go through with it, then think about what you have learned from her, and pick an appropriate setting....
Good luck, and take care~

I would create a good night with music and flowers and just amke it a night for her to remember . That night when you guys go to bed or either the next morning put the ring on her finger before she wakes up and either wake her up or wait. Leave her a note asking her will she and to look at her ahnd and hopefull by then she sees the ring then come in with breakfast and ask the ? again and tell her you LOVE HER

the coolest way is to save up money buy her a ring(if you already didnt) then bring her to a realy fancy restaurent and then while you dance(if there is a dance floor)kneel down and say "in full view of this restaurent will you marie me?"

Get on your knees, look up into her eyes, tell her you could never live without her, and that god willing how YOU will never have to be apart..THEN break out the ring and propose... She'll cry looking down into your eye's and it will melt her soul..I promise..

for some reason, guys think it's cool to go all out... it's alright but girls are wired a little differently. do whatever you think would mean something special to her. if that means going to the place of your first date or leaving a trail of notes for her to follow, then do it. all you want to do is make her feel that that moment was thought of especially for her- gets you big points.
good luck!!
ps. buy the ring first and make sure it fits.
