Proposals to Remember
I’ve been witness to some pretty extravagant proposals. I saw one of my friends ask his girlfriend to marry him while he was on stage with his band. Another friend proposed at a conference and got hotel patrons to gather at the balcony railings at all 10 stories of the hotel, looking down to applaud as he proposed to his girlfriend as he played the grand piano beside the waterfall in the hotel’s lobby.
When my ex husband proposed to me, he took me out to the beach and timed it with the sunset. It wasn’t his fault the Coast Guard started doing helicopter rescue practice off the shore in the middle of if all. 
It was the thought that counted.
The internet brings a whole new world when it comes to creative ways to propose. Jerry won the grand prize in the Will You Marry Me? contest and on February 11, he proposed in front of millions on the front page (!!!) of YouTube to his girlfriend Katie. How cool is that?
By the way, she said yes.
Jerry got to propose in the most extravagant of ways, plus he won a year of flowers from 1-800-FLOWERS (where they can take advantage of the company’s $10 off promotion), a wedding and honeymoon at Sandals, a Blue Nile diamond engagement ring, and airfare from American Airlines. It *almost* makes me want to get married gain, but just almost.
Best wishes to Jerry and Katie!
Don;t forget to take a look at their Valentine’s video.
