Ours - Hubby took me out to dinner. Had the ring box in the door pocket of his car. Afterwards we drove up to the top of Rib "Mountain" (we don't have real Mountains in Wis- it's just a really high hill and state park) and stopped to talk. It was so foggy out that you could not see anything around the car. HUbby wanted to climb the tower up there but I was afraid we'd get lost and it was chilly so I said no. We got back in the car and he turned on the lights, pulled out the box and simply said "Will you marry me. We didn't even plan it but realized a year after getting married that we'd honeymooned at a place on that same "Mountain". I'll never forget how foggy it was and secluded it felt.
My sister-in-laws was interesting - Her then boyfriend took her out in a canoe (they were always doing outdoor sports together) and once they were out in the middle of a lake he pulled out a box with a ring in it. He proposed and then when he went to take the ring out of the box and to put it on her finger he dropped it purposely into the lake. She freaked out and started crying and told him it was ok she didn't need a ring. Then he pulled out a real one and explained that the first one was just a cracker-jack kind. She was so relieved and they got a good laugh. Also gave them a funny story to tell others later too.
