I got engaged at the Chicago Botanic Gardens. It was very sweet and private. I wouldn't have minded a big public thing, but to be honest, I did prefer it being just us. The funny thing is that since he wanted it to be private, we walked on a trail to the very edge of the place--where there wasn't even any really pretty scenery or anything, haha. We just walked up to the top of a big grassy hill and he asked me there. It was still wonderful
I was sort of part of an engagement once too. I used to play travel softball during high school and we had a softball tournament in Disney World. (It was awesome, the pitcher's circle had Mickey ears on it!) Anywho, before the game, the coach from the other team came up to our coach and told him that he was planning on proposing to his g/f, who was the assistant coach of the other team, right after we did ground rules. He asked that instead of having just the captains meet at home plate for ground rules, that each team line up on the baseline to watch. The ump was in on the whole thing too. Anyways, after they went over ground rules, the ump asked "Does anyone have any questions?" and the guy said "I do". He reached in his pocket, got down on one knee and popped the question. The girlfriend was SO shocked, it was fantastic! Everyone went crazy (both teams and the whole crowd).
And then the other team whooped our asses
lol
