I would take her to the spot you first asked her out, had your first kiss, went on your first date or first made love and ask her there. If none of those places are special or accessible, then find the thing that you two connect on and propose that way. Here are a few ways my friends got engaged:
- setting up the bio lab where they first met with roses and candles (and getting the profs involved to make her less suspicious)
- a re-enactment of your first date
- at a glenn that was absolutely georgeous with a waterfall and tons of greenery
- at a local botanical garden or park

Here are some bad proposals that still did the job:
- in a cornfield (my dad is oh so romantic)
- while they were making love (how do you explain that to your mom)
-over IM at work (so impersonal)

Good Luck!

depends on what you would both like i would love to be proposed to publicly like you sing her her favourite song and then say will you marry me. buy a bunch af helium balloons with will you marry me printed on them and have them placed in the center of the table with the ring underneath in the first place you ever went on a date she will be like whats going on as you are being sat at that table and end up in tears when she sees the display. I like the idea of having a photographer near to take pics or even invite some family and friends to be at the same place but fanned out so that she doesnt see them and after she says yes they can all pop out and say congratulations because everyone knows the first thing a woman wants to do when she gets engaged is to call or go see everyone and tell them the good news so why not kill the two birds with one stone. Trust me she will love it

You should take her to a nice restaurant (it doesn't have to be an expensive restaurant, just a nice ambience). Let the folks at the restaurant know that you are planning a special event and have a special bouquet of flowers ordered for your table. Make sure the restaurant will have champagne on hand for your special evening. Once you are seated and order champagne, let her know how lovely she looks. After you have sipped on champagne for a bit, then pop the question. She will absorb all of the special attention you have given prior to your proposal and it will always leave a lasting impression.

every couple has a place that is important to them...weather it is the place they first met, where you went on a first date or where you first said the love word. why not go to a really special place and have a big bouquet of flowers waiting for her? girls love the mushy stuff :) dont try any of these things that have been done a million times before(overly expensive/posh restaurant ect)...shell see it coming a mile off and will spend the whole nite with butterfies in her stomach!

omg my boyfriend took me on the London eye, just as the lights were coming on and dusk was well setting in, we had a private ipod, and then we also had champagne, its was the most memorable moment in my life that i will never forget, apart from meeting him and also the day we actually get married next year.
take her for a meal after if you want to and can afford to.

another i guess cheep and unexpected way is get a take away that she especially loves, then have it all set out on the table, with a bottle of champagne, have the ring tied to a red rose and then when she sits down, give her the rose and ask her to marry you. good luck i hope it turns out well.xxxx

Why not do it Saturday instead. Take her for a nice walk - somehere that has a lake, stand there and then, get down on one knee and produce the ring. Oh sugar what if it's raining!!!
So What if it's raining - she'll always remember that day. After go home and have a nice hot drink - simple things are the most romantic.

I hope she accepts and I hope you both have a long and very happy marriage.

take her somewhere special. Somewhere that she will always think "he proposed to me right here" Like a pond with a picnic table next to it. Take her out to look at the stars and pop the question. OR take her to watch the sunset. It doesn't have to be a big dinner or a expensive evening, just make it special.

One more thing - I really want the guy to tell me why he wants to live the rest of his lifde with me when he proposes. be sure you do that. "i can't imagine not having you by my side" or "i can't imagine someone better to raise grandchildren with" something like that. She will never forget the way you say it. Rehearse a little bit.

DO NOT PUT THE RING IN FOOD. Ok now that we've got that all cleared up I'll list some nice places where you can propose.
-A nice resteraunt
-During a sunset
-At the beach
Some more romantic and creative days are to re create your first date. Arrange to go to a chinease resteraunt where they'll give her a cookie with a slip of paper in it that says, 'Will you marry me?'

Whatever you do make it meaningful and true to who you both are as a couple.

I made it very clear early on that I didn't want to be proposed to in front of a group of people. I wanted it to be a private moment shared by just the two of us. My fiance listened and after nearly 4 years together on a January evening, he read my mind and did a wonderful job! He had candles lite and a blanket on his living room floor. He had just sent me out to Dairy Queen for take out and when I got back, while I was taking care of the dogs outside he arranged our food on real plates and popped in the fireplace DVD (because we don't have a real fireplace). He even positioned the space heater in front of the TV for a more real effect. We enjoyed our romantic indoor picnic and cuddled on the blanket afterwards. During our conversation about our future together he reached behind him and pulled out the engagement ring. He told me I didn't have to wait any longer and asked me to marry him. It was really sweet. Oh, and of course I said "yes".

Had it been nicer weather he had planned to recreate the moment when we first said "I love you" to one another at a near by state park, cuddled in a hammock. I was thrilled to know that he put so much thought into it and respected my request for a intimate, private proposal.

It's definitely the thought that counts! Make it personal. Make it unforgetable! And another romantic touch is to do it somewhere that you could visit years from now on an anniversary. :o)

Recreating a romantic moment from your history together is always a winning idea. First "I love you", First kiss, First date, First time you met, First song you danced to, etc.

I recommend a traditional on the knee proposal in a park or where ever you happen to be. Be Romantic, don't be one of these cheezeballs that puts it in a fortune cookie with a will you marry me fortune in it!!!...

If you want the ability to tell a proposal story than do the fortune cookie - if you want it to be a special thing between the 2 of you, then do it right!

PS - My Grandpa gave me some advice on marriage a long time ago - he said "marry a woman with small hands, that way when she's holding your pecker it will always appear to be bigger" :D

GOOD LUCK!!!!
