St. Valentine's Day Proposal by Maddhatter3
This instructable will show you how I proposed to my wife, with a box of what appears to be unopened chocolates.

Items that you will need:
An engagement ring
A box of your sweetie's favorite chocolates, mine prefers Godiva.
An extra seal sticker for the box.
And of course you will need someone to ask.

Step 1: Buy the box of chocolates.

This would seem to be a very easy step, but be forewarned. One box of chocolates is not like the rest. Most of the boxes of chocolates on the market today have some of the worst tasting nougats known to man. STAY AWAY FROM THESE!!!!!

I say this from experience the rest of this instructable won't go the way you want it to if you get the wrong chocolates.

I prefer to go to the more fancy Chocolatiers where you can customize your chocolates. This way you can get their favorites. Explain to the Chocolatier your idea and they will more than likely be more than happy to accomodate your request. Once I explained it, the clerk at Godiva directed me to the heart shaped pillow and gave me some seal stickers to reseal the box. This will give it the look of an untampered box.

no, you should put the ring in a chocolate, and tell her so savor and to let the chocolate to melt in her mouth, and then she fins the ring!

That is very sweet, I proposed on Valentine's Day also, but I wasn't nearly, or even the littlest, as romantic.

Thanks, Still one of the most romantic things I've ever done. I think I used it all up on this one. I've never quite been able to top it.

so if you've been married now for 9 years and these pictures were just taken I guess neither one of you ate the chocolate. :)

Ha, no we ate the chocolates that night. These are newer and better. :P
