Perform a musical

You will either love this, or it will make you feel a little bit sick, but this guy put a lot of effort into his marriage proposal, which involved the team at Disney World:

Propose using Google Maps

Very geeky, but very romantic.  Michael Weiss-Malik works for Google, and with some insider knowledge, made sure he was prepared when the Google Street View team were in his area.  He prepared a banner with the text “Proposal 2.0: Marry me Leslie!!”.  His proposal was available for all to see on Google Maps. He then managed to get his girlfriend to go to the precise location on Google Maps to see his proposal… I wonder how he managed to crowbar that into a normal conversation!

Give her flowers

Aww… how cute!  This is always a winning method.

You perhaps don’t need to hang from a branch though.

Propose Using Twitter

Grant Robertson, who is the Lead blogger at DownloadSquad proposed using Twitter. If you think proposal by text message is a little impersonal,  this might not be for you, but if you’re brave and tech savvy, then this could be the perfect public romantic gesture.

Propose using the iPhone

Bryan Haggerty proposed by creating an iPhone application which guided his girlfriend on a treasure hunt which took her along a heart shaped trail and ultimately lead to the final romantic location, where he met her and proposed.

Each point on the map came with a video of him giving a clue on where to go next.

Hack her Nintendo

This guy hacked the Super Nintendo role-playing game Chrono Trigger while his girlfriend was playing it. He added her favourite song and some of their shared memories to the game and changed the role play dialogue to ask her to marry him.
