inspiring and mindboggling, February 17, 2004

This review is from: Popping the Question: Real-Life Stories of Marriage Proposals from the Romantic to the Bizarre (Paperback)
Amazing, what some people are willing to do in order to get their loved ones to agree to marry them these days. Do I really have to propose on board a sold out plane, on the flight attendant's intercom or rent both horse and armor in order to appear as my future wife's shining knight - in a public park? I guess so.
Long gone are the days when a simple bouquet, a nice dinner and a diamond ring managed to do the trick - we've entered the age of Survivor and The Bachelor. Better prepared and inspired, I figured, to convince my very own Bachelorette, that I'm no Average Joe after all, and Sheree Bykofsky and Laurie Viera deliver way enough material to prepare me for the day when I strike - but first, I've got to finish reading their stories and muster up the courage .

With another Valentine's Day 2004 just come and gone, I read these stories of romantic one-night-only real life performances and was inspired by the power of love. This artfully written collection of betrothal secrets is captivating, delight-filled and simply fun. Thank you Ms. Viera for giving us this well crafted gem of romantic exploits and endeavors.

Most of the proposal stories went on and on. In reality I think there were about 30 or so stories in the book. I would also recommend The Romantic's Guide to Popping the Question. It has over 100 real life stories which are much shorter and quite creative.
