Today, at my sister's wedding, she and I had a plan that she would purposely throw the bouquet to my girlfriend, then I would propose in front of everyone. When the bouquet landed in my girlfriend's lap, she screamed, "Ew, no way" and threw it to someone else. FML

Aww, at least now you won't embarrass yourself in front of everyone. But still, FYL

Ouch... but it sounds like you may have gotten lucky. At least you found out how she feels before proposing.

I'm surprised your sister was cool with that. Her wedding is her day. The celebration should be about her and her new husband, not you and your girlfriend.

But they organised it together, if the bride wants to share a bit of the attention she shouldn't feel obliged not to just because it's 'her day', what's the point of that?

There are actually some brides who don't think the universe revolves around them on their wedding day

The bride might of also told her sister what was going to happened and they reorganized the plan.

My brother got married first but if he hadn't his wife is one of my best friends and I would have been ok with him doing that that at my wedding

...how? She didn't know he'd propose? It's not like she intentionally decided to reject him, they should've discussed their opinions on marriage initially before making such a public proposal.

Not ready yet...no need to worry it's just superstition...

Now you know what she wants.

You can't propose at someone else's wedding. That's their special day. You have to let them have that day for just them.

Reread it; it says that he made the deal with the bride, his sister. So his sister was OK with it

Its still rude.
shepp626 11
That was my first thought, but his sister was clearly more than OK with it. I know I certainly wouldn't have minded it at my wedding if it made my sister happy

or she felt bad saying no and just let it happen

I'm sorry that happened OP, at least there was no public embarrassment. Maybe talk to her about future plans and whether her reaction was stress-induced or a joke, or whether they were serious and need more time in the relationship to be ready for a big step like marriage.

Really nice of your sister to share her wedding attention with you! And don't worry about your girlfriends reaction, maybe she just didn't want the spotlight.

It always amazes me that guys still ask women to marry them without discussing marriage first. I only got close to proposing once in my life, but we had talked about it. I knew that if I had asked she would have accepted. You don't just surprise someone completely with the concept of being together forever.

You sound so sensible and considerate, 22. I can't help but wonder how you earned your username, beaches it's not obvious to me!

Sounds like a nice gesture, but maybe next time you could talk to girlfriend about her feelings on marriage before you put her on the spot in front of lots of people?
