Moe's suggestion is about one step removed from giving your bride-to-be a gift certificate to Kay's
True, but she still gets the thrill of seeing the diamond when you propose.
EDIT: Besides, it would beat the hell out of the proposal my wife got...
We're having lunch one day, and I turn to her and say "So, my parents are coming out here in July, for a family reunion. Whatta ya say we save them the cost of another airline ticket and plan a wedding for for that week?"
In hindsight I can understand the incredulous look on her face and the lack of a gleeful "Yes!". In fairness to me, we had talked about it at length, and it was as close to a fore gone conclusion as I have ever seen that it would be happening. She did, soon after, get the down on one knee, "I already asked your dad's blessing, wanna get hitched?" proposal.
