Best. Marriage Proposal. Ever.

I wish it was real. And it ended with her saying no.

Yep. It felt more like he was making an audition tape than proposing marriage.

Ditto. That was just embarrassing.

No kidding.

I’d cheer if she said no.
Any one who puts someone ON THE SPOT for a YES like that is afraid of rejection.

Clearly staged. No chick looks that good - or put together - after a day of walking around a theme park in 80 degree weather.

I am willing to imagine that this guy is an entertainer that either works for Disney or has enough of an “in” to pull this together. Totally possible.

Actually, I hope that is the case, because I found the whole thing pathetic. What exactly was he accomplishing? A proposal has 90% of the ingredients to be unforgettable by design, and all the guy needs to do is make the moment special between the two people. Timing, setting, have your heart in it.

Anything beyond that is pathetic.

Or that time in the train station.

A little too much like showing off.

Part of the charm of these kinds of things is that the person is going to a special effort, and doing something he might not otherwise have done, to make the occasion. This was pretty obviously something he does all the time. Plus it was Disney - the fact that it might have been nothing more than staged robbed it of any excitement.

It’s very nice, and I wish them well. But I like the kind where the guy ropes total strangers into participation better. The sort of thing where you go around asking people “I want to propose to my girlfriend - do you want to help? Just hold up this sign when I point at you”.

Who proposed sitting to the Lovely and Talented Mrs. Shodan sitting on the couch watching Deliverance, so what the heck do I know

Was it the “purty mouth” line that inspired you? :wink:

Watching the other videos (especially the one with the napkins) makes me wonder what’s wrong with us – very few people seem to be enjoying the impromptu shows. Do we just not want to be bothered?

Of course. Something about the man in the video makes me think he’s not the marrying (women) type.

Unless you already know the answer*…eeeeew.

*My cousin proposed around Christmas time to his now-wife. He rigged up a set of lights to say, “T-Will You Marry Me?” on their front lawn." However, they were already living together, and it was pretty much expected that they were going to get married.

Oh come on, people. The best proposal is the kind that’s a spectacle. It makes everyone look at the girl. In other words, exactly like the wedding. My girl has specifically asked (read: commanded) me to make the proposal with as many people watching as possible. Sure, it’s conceited, but hey…I’m marrying an actress. It’s her special moment, right?

Kudos to this guy’s character!

I love the improv musicals and art. I hate this wedding proposal. What does that say about me? I couldn’t even watch it. Her simpering made me ill.

that was shit… Sorry, but my quiet proposal in our favorite diner over slices of pie was like five times cooler.

Or the previous time in the train station?

Wow. So sometimes, it actually does happen the way it happens in the movies.

I’ve had a grumpy afternoon, and this thread has be grinning like crazy. So what if they are fake, they certainly are entertaining (though the proposal a little less so…the later ones are great!)

When I grow up, I want to be improv everywhere.

I love the high five escalator. It just tickled me right.

I love this. Brings a smile to my face every time.

Of course if was faked. I realized for sure as soon as he started singing. I suspected when the opening shot was a camera on the roof.
