I am taking my girl out for Easter and only Easter as far as she knows.  She seems convinced that we are going on an Easter egg hunt and I dont want to disappoint her.  I am going to give her the engagement ring in an Easter Egg.  Yes it might be corny but I know she will appreciate it.  I was supposed to have the ring 2 months ago but it just never happened with the jeweler.  Wish me luck and I hope the weather holds up since I will be doing the whole thing on the beach and them I'm taking her to one of the nicest restaurants in the area.

Hiding a ring in an Easter egg is quite creative.

/jots down a note for future reference.

She said yes of course but I had her completely surprised.  She put an NFL linebacker tackle on me despite her only weighing 120 lbs and me weighing 260.  The table next to us bought us champagne and all the women in the area came over to see her ring.  All in all it went great.

When I saw your idea the first thing I thought of was that a kid would find the egg before your GF did, and run back and show his neat prize to his parents.

Glad it worked out as well as it did.

just make sure your going to marry out of straight practicality and solid financial and future goals.

love fades, and can be broken or shifted to another person outside the marriage.

don't marry for love.

be together for love, love one another, enjoy eachother.............marry for the business.

that's how you will stay married.

That's how it is!

There is a reason why many American marriages fail, yet strangely, arranged marriages have a nearly 90% success rate. The concept of marriage purely for love is a new, and unique concept despite what Disney tells ya. What researchers find is that when you marry for practical purposes, and not for love, you are less easily disillusioned and discouraged. Personally, I think you need a mix of the two.

Best of luck to ya and your fiance OP

So, how many AR's could you buy for what you put on her finger?

I could have easily had 7-8 NICE ARs or one NFA Uzi for what is on my wifes ring finger. It kinda depresses me, but at least it makes her happy.

That's pretty cool.  My future brother-in-law put the ring in a cake.  I figured I could pretty much top that by doing nothing.  It all came out very well yesterday I only wish it was a little warmer on the beach.  I told her that she cant complain when I watch sports cause she kept staring at her ring when I'd talk to her then I told her I get my next 4 or 5 guns with no questions asked.

Let me get this straight - you're already resorting to bribery to wear the pants in the family?

What is the public's perception of fake diamonds that look like the real thing? Doesn't it work all the same?

Fake diamonds are kinda like airsoft, you pull them in a real world situation, prepare to get you ass kicked.

What's the idea behind giving the woman the most expensive  diamond? If all they are interested in is making other people feel jealous or recognize the diamond, a fake diamond ought to work the same.

DUDE! WTF is wrong with you?!?!? You asked someone to marry you? Don't you know that wisdom of ARFCOM says marriage is evil/stupid?!?!?!?
