I have a daughter and always wanted to do things right of not bring a child in the world before marriage. Now that my girlfriend is pregnant, I want to make things right of getting married before the baby is born. Definitely don't want to spend alot of money and want to keep it simple. Plus I want to surprise her on the marriage thing. What should I do? Explain answer.

PLease people understand that I am in love with this woman and she's my soul buddy. Its nothing about the pregnancy or marrying her because of a child. Its about whats right and making a life with this woman.

I have been discussing and dropping hints like crazy. She smiles at the whole thhing and stays silent so I think it something she's down for.

Plan it together if she has accepted your proposal. Have a small ceremony at a church (forget extra decorations or just light about 100 cream colored candles). She can get discounted wedding dress from David's Bridal. Ask a few female relatives or children relatives to get matching dresses from David's Bridal (have the children throw fake flower petals for a cheaper cost).
You could do an outdoor snow wedding in a field. If you wait until Dec. or Jan. No decorations needed there. She would just need to wear a matching white smock with her wedding dress.
If you live near a beach that wouldn't be very costly either. Just supply chair and tie big matching ribbons on the back.
For a reception do a wine and dessert type thing at your home or a family members home. Have cake, fruit and dip, veggies and dip, and other desserts. Serve wine, punch, mixed drinks, and kool-aid for the kids.

well first of all I think its very noble of you wanting to marry the girl and take responsibility, and i know you want to pop the question about marriage, but I would drop hints to see how she feels about it, it may not be the right situation for you, or on the other hand you might be right for each other in that case just go to the courthouse sometime before your baby is born get it done quick easy and cheap! lol good luck man and god bless

well, you should ask her first, don't spring a surprise wedding on her. she is pregnant and probably moody. i would make her a nice dinner or take her somewhere important to the both of you and profess your love to her and ask her to marry you.
just be romantic but not over the top. do something you know she will like and remember.
and above all, make sure you want to marry her!! don't marry her just because she is pregnant...you knew how babies were made and you knew your morals. you don't want to have to put the child through a divorce. good luck!!!!

I don't think surprising her with a wedding is a very wise thing to do. This is something that should be discussed and thought out before hand by the two of you.

Getting married just because of a pregnancy is not necessarily the right thing to do. Think about that.

You sound like a good guy and you are doing the right thing, go to the court house and have the J. P. marry you, or go to Las Vegas and spring this on her,.......

Just because she is pregnant doesn't mean you marry her!
That is foolish! Marry her cause you love her!
Or next time just use a condom!
Or
remember it is impossible for her to get pregnant out of her mouth!

You should ask your friends and relatives instead of relying on people you don;t know for such important advice.

I think u should think twice before telling her about the marriage.... U, the gal, and ur parents should think of all this and agree on one thing...
Dont be fast on taking decision it will be bad...
so my advise to u is think! and tell her about it..
