Marriage proposal during or after a Broadway show — Page 2

Seriously...not to rain on your parade. This has been done before SO many times. Give the lady a chance to not feel pressured in front of an audience of people. This is a romantic moment and not a public event.

Actually it seems that the "I don't have time for your romantic gesture" members of this board are who's telling him this.
1) A proposal takes like 30 seconds. It is not going to kill anyone to stand in the audience and be respectful while they have their special moment (or to leave if you want!).
2) While the points made about "What if she wants to say no?" or "It should be private" are valid for those making the comments, I believe this person and their s.o. are the only ones this matters to.
3) Stop telling this person how to propose!
A public engagement may not be desired by everyone, but if they think their girl would love it, they know better than anyone here.
Good grief.

Seeing as this person opened themselves up for feedback, advice, and scrutiny by posting on a public message board, I would suggest this is a completely moot point. The OP began by asking about a Broadway proposal... So... I'm not sure how you can then turn around and tell us not to offer that advice.

They asked for how they should go about arranging a proposal at a show, not whether or not they should or what everyone thinks about it.
However, I retract everything I've said, given I clearly forgot what message board I was posting on. :p

I'm not sure why that event demands respect from the audience.
Anyway, there are varying opinions posted in this thread. Some of us were pro and some con to the subject brought up by the OP. Nothing wrong with that.
p.s. If you know a message board that isn't like this one, please let me know because I doubt if one exists. They're all the same.

Hi. I'm going to see the King and I this Sunday with my prom date, and I wanted to try and plan a promposal in that same form as these wedding proposals. Does anyone have an incite on how to do this for this such show? Thanks so much!

No, but they might have some insight.

If the person you're going with is already your prom date, why do you need to plan a promposal? Isn't a promposal to ask someone to go to prom?
...I am so old.

^they probably already know they are going with eachother, but they haven't asked eachother yet. Also that proposal for Daniel josh green from his boyfriend was so perfect and so cute. I want to be proposed to that way! Also they are both HOT

My fiancé propose to me on a Broadway stage last may. :) It was actually very intimate, because we're friends with an actor, so we went backstage after the show was done and he took me on the stage after everyone had left. It was just us, the ghost light, and our friend filming (though I discovered he was there later!). I don't know if I'd have liked a public proposal with all the audience still there.

The world doesn't think promposals are important. I would think they would not entertain the idea.

This thread reminds me of my favorite Broadway-style marriage proposal. It was at the end of an ASCAP concert in LA.

Chicago is a GREAT idea LOL

I'd rather watch 2 people fight over the spoils from a divorce--average length of a marriage[except for Roxy] is 4. something years anyway so why bother?
No---I'm not bitter...................
