PlayMaker Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Michigan this fall for 3 days to watch her favorite college football team U of M. We have dated for almost a year and have spoke of getting married. I plan on proposing during or trip. I'm looking for a variety of ideas. She loves Michigan football, is very relgious, speaks Spanish and English, loves Italian food and the language as well. I want it to be very personal, yet thoughtful. Thanks.

overseas2004 Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 How about contacting the university and seeing if they could do something during half time at the football game... like hold up a banner saying Marry me XXXXX? The banner could be written in Spanish. when she says yes ... you could take her to an Italian restaurant to celebrate. Link to post Share on other sites
bambi_4 Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Not sure of any proposal ideas but something you might suggest because of being religious(didn't mention which one) and a love of whats Italian but might depend on family, religion etc. is getting married in Rome. As for the proposal, make it a time she wont forget, spoil her as this hopefully will only be done once. And make sure its done in private because its only meant for the 2 of ye. Set the scene.

katie79 Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 This sounds very NICE! My bf has been promising to propose for 4 years almost. Now that he got the ring, he keeps pushing the date forward so he doesn't have to do it. I think whatever you do is sincere. To be honest, I don't think my bf is going to propose. I think anything you think would be memorable and beautiful would be. There are some men out there who make getting engaged a real nightmare! At least you are a decent man with a nice thought. I'm sure she's happy she didn't find a stringer like some women do. Good luck & the best! Link to post Share on other sites
Fayebelle Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Always a nice touch Better than the scoreboard- Do you know anyone w/contacts on the team? Have them all yell it- Adds a bit of humor and she'll never forget that you got the entire football team to call out your proposal. Or -Traditionally Italians are romantic- talk to a little Italian restaurant and ask them if they could stay open an extra hour for you to propose- you'd have the place to yourself good food and music- VERY ROMANTIC Link to post Share on other sites
bambi_4 Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 I like the second idea of Fayebelle, very romantic and as italians are so romantic they may well do that for you. Link to post Share on other sites
