In a few days time I am going to my relatives to celebrate my cousin's engagement. My aunt and uncle came up for my father's sixtieth birthday the other week and regaled us with their tale of how he proposed.

It's been nine years now and I still can't get this image out of my mind whenever anyone talks about making a wedding proposal a day the girl will never forget. Thanks, ewx. :o)

(There's some cool, though not as amusing, alternative suggestions in the rest of the thread.)
