This is how one man proposed to his now, fiancée.

Proposing marriage is a very personal and emotional journey.
Every man wants to impress the woman he wishes to marry with a unique unforgettable experience that is special to them.

He was in love hands over heels and was looking for a unique and very romantic way to ask for her hand in marriage.

At first he drew blank, but then he started thinking about things they did together, and things he did for her when they were first dating.

He came up with the idea of sending her on a treasure hunt.

The first clue was delivered to her workplace.
It was a long Stem red rose, delivered jus as she was preparing to leave for the day.
The box included an envelope with a treasure hunt map and a note.
The note requested that she visit the florist who presented her with a bouquet of flowers identical to the first bouquet he ever gave her. On the bouquet was the second clue.
A note directing her to See's Candies. Here she received a duplicate of the first box of chocolates he ever gave her.
The third clue directed her to his home, where he had a magnificent candle light dinner awaiting her.
The fourth clue was unspoken. He took her to the park she loved, to feed the ducks she adored.
This concluded the first segment of the treasure hunt.

The next segment was to come on the weekend. Since she did not expect it, it was a real surprise.
On Saturday, he had a bouquet of balloons delivered to her home. Attached to the bouquet was an envelope with a note requesting that she dress up casually but bring with her elegant eveningwear and he would pick her up for a date at a set time.

She was totally puzzles. Did she suspect…?

When he arrived, she was ready.
He took her to the movies to see a movie version of her favorite book that he bought her a while back.
From there via the park to his home.
No! He did not have dinner ready but asked that she dress up in her eveningwear as he made dinner reservation.
You guessed it. He made reservations in the first upscale restaurant he ever took her to.

Dinner was wonderful and as they were waiting for the dessert and coffee, he gave her yet another envelope.
The note inside simply asked:
"May I hold your hand?"
When she looked at him pondering his request for permission and said "of course", he took her hand in his and slipped a ring onto her finger as he knelt before her and asked her to marry him.

The wedding date has been set!
