It seems as though romance is in the air this week, as creative proposals go viral on the internet. Is it time for you to get inspired for a marriage proposal of your own?

1. Lip Dub Proposal

It doesn’t get much more romantic than this creative proposal, in which a few dozen people lip synch and act out the lyrics to Bruno Mars’s song “Marry You” for  a beautifully choreographed musical proposal. “Don’t say no, no, no, no, no, Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, And we’ll go, go, go, go, go, If you’re ready, like I’m ready,” the couple’s family and friends sing in flash mob style to the now bride-to-be in the back of a slowly-moving SUV. We may not all be nearly as creative as this, but it is sure to get you in the mood for love. I just hope he remembered to buy a wedding ring set!

2. First Date Proposal

One less successful proposal in the news this week was the first date proposal by a man who hoped to have an arranged marriage. Pallavi Reddy’s parents hoped to arrange a marriage for her with a successful man of common heritage. When she finally agreed to a date with the man of their choosing, it became quickly clear to her that she could not marry him. Before the date was over, however, he proposed marriage without the answer he had hoped for. The lesson? Hold off on purchasing a wedding ring set, no matter how inexpensive it may be, until you are certain that her answer will be yes.

3. Brainy Beach Proposal

This past week, a brilliant young brain surgeon decided to propose to his girlfriend on their trip to the beach. His idea was to bury the engagement ring in the sand and have his bride-to-be dig it up. Several hours later, with the help of several beachcombers and a metal detector, the ring was recovered. Fortunately, she thought that the whole thing was quite funny, and she said yes. It was certainly a proposal to remember, and at least he didn’t bury the entire wedding ring set.
