We were on a safari in South Africa, 5-star joint with game drives, food, the works. Organised with the place to have dinner set-up in our room for when we got back from the dusk drive, gave them the ring in the morning and had it sitting on the serviette. Everything was going beautifully, til she decided (without letting me know) that she was busting for a piss. I got inside first, set up on the knee next to the table waiting for her to come in. She ran straight past, and straight to the toilet. I got up, didn't get back down. Didn't hear the toilet flush, she came back out and saw the ring while I was sitting on the couch with a beer.

When she arrived at my house she couldn't get in because I deadlocked my door. I said my front door was not opening and that she needed to enter through the garage. When I opened the roller door for her it showed a laptop projecting onto the back wall of the garage, saying to click "play". This started a 5-minute video of photos of us together and places we had been together to a piece of music from her favourite play/production. At the end was an arrow pointing to the door that leads into the house, where there were 100 tealight candles lined along the passageway and into the lounge-room. I was waiting in a suit holding a a dozen yellow roses (her favourite). I'm glad I didn't buy the ring beforehand; she ended up getting one quite different to what I would have got her.

After all that effort you'd be glad she said yes!

3 flight related proposals:

1) Ploughed the words "marry me" into paddock and flew over in helicopter.
2) Constructed the words "marry me" with rocks on their beach on the property and flew over.
3) Cropping farmer sewed marriage proposal in canola amongst barley/wheat crop and when it was flowering they took a flight over.

How it's done in the country ;)

bought the bride to be's ring on payment plan as we were living in sin and had a joint bank account and when I had paid enough to take the ring home I spent a week trying to do the right thing and ask the father in laws permission. Ended up going there and the mother in law told me to forget asking him and to ask the cook herself.

Waiting for her at home and had a bottle of wine at the ready (was pretty confident she wasnt saying no) and she walked in the door and I grabbed her hand and slipped this massive ring on her right hand (I had no clue it was the wrong hand). She of course said sure why not and we proceeded to drink the bottle of wine - in true form we ended up in the city on the gas and lost the ring. Lucky for us someone handed it in at The Stag and I got it later.

Proposed 11 years ago today

She eventually got her wedding 7 years later.

To someone else.

During a recent getaway with the missus where we joined up with a busload of chicks on a hens outing, one of the girls who we were chatting with turns and says to us "Are you two married?"
I replied with "Yes, just not to each other"

There was an awkward momentary silence.

Then again you could be Stewart Crameri......pick your wedding date for this Friday not expecting your mates to get through to the GF! Oh well at least the grog budget can be slashed in half :shock:

That is just ludicrous in any shape or form.

I went to a wedding on the 97 GF day, the bride and groom were mad Crows supporters, the bride actually wore Crows socks for the day.

Think Crameri booked it before this years program was released expecting the GF to be on the last weekend in September as usual.
