clwnmt2 Posted March 11, 2013 #26 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I know of a couple that got engaged on one of the ships we were on. He talked to the CD at some point and the CD had it all planned out. He was asked to be part of the show and then got down on one knee in front of all the audience before the show. That would be if you or she would want to do something so public.

FoxyBride14 Posted March 11, 2013 #27 Share Posted March 11, 2013 This is so exciting!!! My fiancé proposed to me on vacation too - not on a cruise - it was so special! I'm sure shell love whatever you do! Congrats!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stags14 Posted March 12, 2013 #28 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I based my proposal around a cruise but ended up doing it beforehand because I knew she'd want to tell her friends and show her ring off... so I bailed on it. However, I was going to propose in private probably at night on deck like someone had just mentioned. It depends on what kind of person your girlfriend is, sometimes women are horrified of a proposal in front of people. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2cruiserccl Posted March 12, 2013 #29 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I believe Richard Spacey was the CD on the Explorer, last November. If so, he is fabulous! How about doing this just before they begin the Newlywed, not so Newlywed game? You could be one of the couples they invite to participate. Like that idea!!!! Also maybe plan getting married on board fos at a later date. I did and really enjoyed being married onboard such a great ship. U could do something on your own in the chapel as well its alwqys open and anyone can walk up there.

He is going to be the Cruise Director while we are on the ship and I would love his help with some of your ideas. Only 46 days until the cruise!

Nervousascanbe Posted March 12, 2013 Author #38 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I tried that, however I am expecting to see picture of a cruise and the only two "Richard Spacey" are someone from ontario that looks like they never touched their Facebook and a picture of a dog.. Tons of site and such about him being the best director but no direct page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisingreena Posted March 12, 2013 #44 Share Posted March 12, 2013 how about making a big sign and putting it on the outside of your balcony right before you get off the ship to go in port. then when you get off the ship have her look up at the balcony? That would be awesome...if it is doable.balcony, allowed to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedGeek Posted March 12, 2013 #45 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Like PH8 mentioned, I proposed to my fiancee on the Freedom this past October. I too was pushed the engagement package for $450. No thanks, I didn't need all that. Through a few threads there was an email address for the cruise director on board (mine was Graham Seymour), and I was able to arrange a little surprise before the show on the first formal night of our cruise :) Also, thanks to Graham, we were able to get a video copy of the proposal. I was extremely pleased, and I still owe Graham a very long thank you letter... - Sorry the audio is quiet! Sarah was surprised, the audience seemed to love it, and I couldn't have been happier. Best of luck on your proposal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervousascanbe Posted March 12, 2013 Author #46 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Thanks SpeedGeek.. Its funny because i actually found your proposal on Youtube and thought it was great. Congratulations!. I found our CD on Facebook through PH8 help and messaged him so hopefully he will respond! I don't think I could do it in front of that many people like you did.. Kudos, however I still want it to be semi-public Thanks again for your help with ideas.. I had initially thought of a similar one but don't think i could do it without some liquid encouragement and then who knows how it will go lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had initially thought of a similar one but don't think i could do it without some liquid encouragement and then who knows how it will go lol Well there's plenty of liquid encouragement available on ship. Even with it, I couldn't keep it together (thus my laughing when I got the microphone), but it still worked out in the end :) I think the first formal night is a fantastic time to do it. You'd still have plenty of days on the ship to celebrate getting engaged, and it kinda throws her off because you didn't do it on the first night, plus you're both nice and dressy for the occasion :D But I'm sure that whatever you decide to do she will love. Hell, Sarah didn't even know what I said to her until she saw the video afterward! She said her mind was just waiting for the question and everything else sounded like the teacher from Charlie Brown :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PH8 Posted March 12, 2013 #48 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I love watching that video.......I remember all the "blood,sweat and tears" William put into getting that done...........ok,maybe no blood:p Good luck to the OP on the same success........keep us posted..:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
