I pride myself on not being too bridezilla BUT...

No, just no!! My day - you can have yours later!!!

Oh, I've heard of that happening before. It does seem an unusual place to propose at someone else's wedding. I think I'd be a little bit upset but I'd not say anything.

Eeeeeek, thats just cringe ?

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if someone got engaged at my wedding. But standing in front of the top table and effectively stealing our thunder? No chance.

Weddings can be very romantic, so I can see how people may get swept up in it.

Yeah. i wouldn't be best pleased... queitly and romantically alone at their own table or whatever yes.. fine.. but in front of my top table and to make it a "thing" at my wedding... No no no no no!!

My OH was actually planning to propose to me the morning after my friend's wedding while we were all at breakfast. Even that I thought was a bit much. Thankfully that idea got scrapped when the ring arrived as he just couldn't wait.

I'd be mortified if I was the one being proposed to at someone's wedding! And if it'd happened at mine I'd have been a bit put out to say the least!

The bride's and groom's smiles look genuine but... but... this guy didn't think it through. Unless he did and discussed it with the couple? Let's hope that's what happened

At one of my weddings last year the best man said a usher needed to tell someone some thing and yes you guested it he proposed in front of the top table, but the couple did give him permission to do it though.

Had it if been sweetly and romantically in the background I would have loved somebody to get engaged at my wedding, and if I had if found out during the reception on would have a led if they wanted tovtake the dj mic and announce it/buy them some sparkly but taking my to table thunder no thanks you.

we don't know the reasons though, maybe it was staged, encouraged by the bride and groom maybe

Honest to gospel it wouldn't bother me in the least but i'm weird

I think I'd rather be told before hand so I knew to expect it but it wouldn't really bother me either. In fact I think it would be quite a nice story that so and so got engaged at our wedding. It's not going to effect the day, people will congratulate them and continue with the party I expect.

My mum tried to persuade my bro to propose to his GF at our wedding. (mainly cos she knew he was planning to propose soon and she wanted it to happen when we were all in the same country to celebrate together) i wouldnt have minded if he did, but i was also touched that he refused saying that he didn't want to steal my limelight.......... (strongly suspect that he also didn't want his proposal to be to public too)

As the bride it wouldn't really bother me but I would think the proposer was too lazy and tight to organise his own special proposal.

to me it's tackier than a roll of sellotape.

I wouldnt be happy if someone did that on my wedding day.

I love the photo I saw which zoomed in on the brides eyes and the smiles says yes but the eyes say no.

I was at a baby shower where they were announcing the sex of the baby etc and another couple chose that moment, the height of the reveal to tell everyone they were preggers too. It's just not nice to steal someones thunder like that.

Double post

My cousin chose to announce her pregnancy to our family as we announced our engagement to them. I was a bit deflated at that.

I know someone who did this at their sister’s wedding. I wasn’t there in the day but I know she wasn’t pleased but was happy for them still.

I don’t think I would mind if it was in the background or they arranged to do something with me so that I could expect it, get my head around it and be happy but with all the effort I’m putting in to my wedding I would be saddened if someone just did it and I didn’t know it was going to happen.

Also I read on a comment on the reddit post that the person who is being asked may feel that they didn’t get their own special moment to do it, which actually did make me think that maybe the other person being asked may not think it was special as it may not be them.

I dunno, I just know I would never of wanted OH to propose this way.

This exactly!

I would have hated to have been proposed to at someone's wedding, ugh.

I think if asked first it would be ok.

Personally i would lose my Sh** if this happened at my wedding i would be heart broken </3

I wouldn't mind at all if someone proposed at our wedding- i'd be happy to help them arrange when and how to go about it if they wanted to get an OK in advance. I'm not one for being the centre of attention really though so anything that took the attention away from me a bit would be a blessing!

That said, I would hate to be proposed to at someone else's wedding ?

Heads would roll! Ha. Probably wouldn't mind depending on the couple and whether it had been run past us first, but still, not that cool. The only audience I would have been happy with would have been my family too, so would have to be a family wedding. Can you imagine if they only know a couple of people there? Weird.

Can you imagine if she said no? .... "you having a laugh knob-head? i only brought you cos my plus 1 was busy"

Me too x

?

Why on earth do a public proposal ..... I swear its only done to guarantee a yes. I'd say no - that would bloody teach them!!!!!

My proposal was pretty public - in the middle of a chinese restaurant with all the staff fully aware of what would happen!

However, H did know I'd say yes - I chose the engagement ring he had in his pocket ?

Fair dinkum. It would just be my worst nightmare.

No. Just no. My day!

Only if it was fully planned with the bride and grooms blessing!

My friend once told me a story of a wedding she went to where all the females were asked to step aside from one girl in the bouqet toss. They did and she caught it. She turned around to cheer to find her boyfriend on one knee with ring in hand! Completely pre planned and very cute!!!

The internet has flipped out over this picture without knowing the story behind it... The couple getting engaged are the bride and groom's maid of honor and best man and it was the Bride's idea that he proposed during the wedding reception, as the maid of honor is her sister...... So, Bride knew and encouraged the proposal = everything is happy and wonderful with the world. So the Internet can all calm down now hahaha ?

I'll se if I can find and post the link to the article I found on it.... wait one!

Hopefully found it and it works! ?

I tried to talk someone out of this but they couldnt see what was wrong with it ? apparently he had been planning it since the couple announced the wedding and no where else would do becauce this way all their friends and family could see and be happy for them ? all their reasons where so self involved and selfish but they just didnt get it
