Favourite Movie Proposals

WARNING: Contains spoilers.

Last week I shared my favourite TV proposals and this week I have my fave Movie proposals for you!
Ultimately I would love to be snuck into Tiffany's and told to "pick one!" but I think I'm more laid back and casual and would love a proposal in bed, just the two of us (with a big speech a la Mr. Darcy!)

Ian & Toula - My Big Fat Greek Wedding. [.]

This is simply the cutest, and probably my most favourite - he asks her, without a ring, while they are in bed enjoying each other's company. I love it because it is so intimate and sweet and I always get goosebumps, especially because he get's so nervous!

Ian: "I don't...I don't really know how to say this..."

Jamie & Aurelia - Love Actually. [.]

The entire town marches with Jamie as he searches for Aurelia. When he finds her at the restaurant he reveals that he has learnt Portuguese and professes his lover for her. She in turn reveals that she has learnt English and   accepts!
Jamie: [in Portuguese] "I've come here with the view of asking you to marriage me..."

Johnny & June - Walk the Line. [.]
Johnny and June are on stage when he puts her on the spot by refusing to finish their song until she agrees to marry him.

Johnny: "Now I've asked you forty different ways and it's time you come up with a fresh answer."

Andrew & Melanie- Sweet Home Alabama. [.]
Andrew surprises Melanie by sneaking her into Tiffany's late at night and telling her to...

Andrew: "Pick one..."

Mark & Bridget - Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason. [.]
Bridget rewinds from her earlier blunder of screwing up the proposal and finally Mark asks the big question, she then runs to him all soaked from the rain and they embrace.

Mark: "Bridget Jones, will you marry me?"

Jack & Lucy - While you were Sleeping [.]
Jack (with his family in tow) shows up at Lucy's token booth and casually drops a ring through the slot. So simple, so cute!

Jack: "I need to ask ya a question..."

Mr. Darcy & Elizabeth Bennett - Pride & Prejudice [.]
(Mr. Darcy's second, humbler try!) For me, it's all about the speech - here is the short version!! 

Mr. Darcy: "You must know ...surely you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on."

Favourite Television Proposals

I wrote this post months ago and have only just had the chance to post it! I loved every bit of it!

WARNING: Contains spoilers.

Recently, after watching Barney propose to Robin on How I Met Your Mother (finallllly!) I've been thinking about my favourite proposals on the small and big screen and I thought it would be a really cute post! I don't know anyone with exaggerated and over the top stories of how they proposed or were proposed to, so my TV will have to do! I'll start with favourite Television proposals, check back next week for Favourite movie proposals! I'm more of an understated and simple gal, as my picks will tell...

 

Jim & Pam - The Office.
Jim meets Pam at a gas station and gets down on bended knee in the rain!

Jim: "I just couldn't wait..."

Michael & Holly - The Office. [.] 
Michael takes Holly on a tour through the office and stops at various spots that are special to them. My fave part is when Holly opens the door to find all the employees in a row holding candles - so many feels!

Michael: "This is where I fell in love with you, and this is where I ask you to marry me."

 

Monica & Chandler - FRIENDS. [.]
Chandler tries to convince Monica that he's "not the marrying type" so that he can surprise her only to return home to find their place filled with candles and Monica on one knee!
Monica: "You wanted it to be a surprise..." 

Robert & Amy - Everybody Loves Raymond.  [.]
Amy & Debra are leaving the theatre when suddenly police cars screech to a halt in front of them, an officer steps out and asks Amy to identify herself, followed by Robert in his full dress uniform.
Robert: "I'm ready to be happy."

Matthew & Mary - Downton Abbey. [.]
After finally confessing their feelings for each other Matthew gets on bended knee as snow starts to fall awww.
Matthew: "Lady Mary Crawley, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?" 

Barney & Robin - How I Met Your Mother. [.]
When Robin reaches the rooftop she finds candles and the final page to Barney's Playbook, with one last play - The Robin - his final play to win Robin.

Barney: "Robin Sherbatsky, will you marry me?" 

Honourable mentions:

Mike & Phoebe -FRIENDS. 
After several failed attempts at proposing to each other Mike finally pops the question at a restaurant.
Dwight & Angela - The Office. !!!!!!!!! 
Dwight pulls out his police siren, pulls Angela over and shouts his love for her through a bullhorn!

Ray & Debra - Everybody Loves Raymond. 
Ray writes it in his column in the paper and his Dad accidentally blurts it out!
Homer & Marge - The Simpsons. 
After finding out Marge is pregnant and realising he could never do better he writes his proposal on a card and Marge finds it and reads it aloud and, of course, accepts.
