Message in a Bottle Proposal

Unique Marriage Proposal Idea #9

While out fishing or sailing have a bottle prepared with your proposal message and your engagement ring. When she's not paying attention, slowly place the bottle in the water. Wait for the bottle to float a few feet away from the boat and then show her the bottle. Act surprised and encourage her to get the bottle out of the water. It will be like one of those sappy love stories she watches on TV!

This is also great if you plan on taking a stroll on the beach. Just have the bottle placed where you want it ahead of time. If you are in a crowded location place it away from people so it doesn't get taken. But it behind a sand dune or near a landmark then simply walk over and causually find the bottle.

    My husband did it just right, even managed to completely surprise me when I *knew* the question would be coming, but these are some very interesting ideas. I must caution any hopeful grooms-to-be to know their beloved well enough to know if she'd love or hate a public display before committing to something grandiose!! Mine was perfect because it was exactly what I didn't know I'd love! LOL

    Happily married, I hope never to be proposed to again!

    Your lens though should prove helpful to those who are not married!
