It’s a moment in your life that theoretically should only happen once – the marriage proposal.
But while some men (and women) go all out when asking for their beloved’s hand in marriage, others take the laissez faire approach.
For every boat trip down the Seine or fireworks display, there is a ring nestled in a takeaway burger or a proposal hastily scrawled on the lid of a fast food container.
Fast love: This romantic popped the question by hiding an engagement ring in a takeaway burger
There is no denying that the sentiment is always good – the request to be tied in holy matrimony forever.
But whether these couples will be as happy to recall the moment they say ‘Yes’ once the excitement died died remains to be seen.
From graffiti on a cow to an inventive use of a home WiFi connection, the following proposals all get top marks for thinking outside the box, even if the romance was lacking.
Read on to discover some of the strangest attempts at popping the question ever…
Hard to miss: This proposal on the outside of someone’s home might not have hit the right spot
This scrawl on the side of a cow made for a moo-ving proposal
Traditionally seen as the domain of vandals or Banksy-style artists, spray paint is also a favourite of those popping the question.
Whether it’s the side of a beloved’s house or even a piece of livestock, surface is off limits when it comes to asking for someone’ hand in marriage these days.
That’s what you call a happy meal! Proposal at McDonalds
What is there to loos-e? This man decided public toilets were the best place to pop the question
Kirsty Allsopp and Phil Spencer are all about location, location, location… and so is this guy apparently.
The young man chose public toilets as his venue for popping the question, complete with questionaire on the cubicle door.
The napkin under the bended knee is a nice touch though.
Nearly there: Roses are red, violets are blue, next time you propose, take a dictionary with you
This romantic had the right idea when it came to proposing – the rose petals on the bed is a tried and tested route to the heart.
It’s just a shame they didn’t have a dictionary handy when spelling out the words.
Some might consider this proposal a little cheesy
How would you know if she was crying because of the onion or the engagement ring?
When Billy Ocean sang ‘Hungry For Love,’ we’re not quite sure this is what he meant.
While many see fast food joints as a place to speedily fix pangs of hunger, it seems others treat it as as the perfect proposal destination.
It’s hard not to be impressed by the ingenuity of this proposal, customising the name of a home WiFi network to pop the question.
Whether she became a WiFi(ey) is unknown though.
Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a mountain of Pepsi cans
This effort would have taken some serious time to complete… and unlimited Pepsi.
Hopefully she’s isn’t a Coca Cola fan.
Tatt’s love: This young man got his proposal inked onto his back
Love hurts – especially when you get a shoulder-width tattoo to pop the question.
It’d would be even more painful if she said no though.
