Ok so my wonderful fiance Kyle proposed to me in probably the most romantic way I could ever imagine.

We've been together for 4 1/2 years. Over that time we realized a few key things we had in common - We both loved volunteering for our local ambulance corps., we both were crazy about each other, and we both loved cars - Mainly Mustangs!

So I always joked with him about putting a ton of money into his Mustang rather than buying me an engagement ring.

Well one of the biggest car shows of the year was on Saturday August 21, 2010. My friends told me I needed to have my nails done and look cute (I assumed I needed to do this since it's a major event in our town that everyone attends, I later realized it's because they knew I wanted my nails done and to look nice when the question got popped to me). So I bought a new outfit and got a fabulous manicure for the show.

It was about noon, when his family and my family and a bunch of our non-car club friends started showing up. I assumed it was because they wanted to see his car.

The national anthem played right around 12:15, everyone was gathered around the DJ booth for it. And right after the national anthem, the DJ was calling my name to come up in front of the crowd. My man started walking up at the same time (I still had no idea what was going on.) He gave a brief little speech, then got down on one knee and asked to marry me! What's better? He had taken my parents out to dinner two nights before to ask their permission!!! Of course I said yes, the crowd went crazy and people even threw little plastic wedding rings at us! Everyone knew, except for me! It was perfect and romantic, and the only way I could ever see the proposal going! Video below is of his proposal!!

Thank you! I feel so lucky and blessed to have him in my life! Like I said it was perfectly romantic. I couldn't have imagined him proposing over a candlelit dinner or anything like that. It just doesn't match our personalities. This was absolutely perfect!

Thank you! And I guess that was the benefit of all of our friends knowing is that one person was in charge of a video and a couple people were in charge of pictures. I even had one lady buy me a "Bride to be" sash and tiara with a veil!

That is too cute! I love that you have it on video and can cherish it forever. :heart: My fiance asked my Mom's permission. I am so glad he did. I think it's sweet.

My fiance proposed to me bedside lol. We actually broke up for a few days because we were disagreeing about future plans. We weren't sure if we were rly complatible and rly had what it took to last together. We live together, so when we broke up I just walked around the house, miserable, watching him go along his day. I was so devastated, it made it even harder having to see him and face him every day. Walking around the same house as if we were strangers, it was torture. One night we had this long talk about the future and had a moment of truth. It would take compromise, patience, and understanding, but we wanted to go down the same path. So right before bed, he got super nervous and acted rly funny. I was like..."what's wrong?" He stood in front of the mirror and I could see him staring at me. He got teary eyed, pulled out the box, knelt down by the bed, and asked! Who would've thought something so wonderful was waiting for me after all that hurt! <3

Thats great you have it on video! I'm so glad his proposal was everything you had hoped it would be. DH always dreamed of giving his future wife a fixed up muscle car that he rebuilt instead of a ring. Finances never allowed him to do something like that but my friend told me that about him before I had even met him and I remember falling a little bit in love with him when I heard that. :)

What a great moment to have it on video. I would love to be able to watch our proposal - mainly to see the shock on my face but unfortunately we don't have that.

Congrats to you guys!
