Proposing in church

Girgisantony

Super random but what do y’all think about men asking women to marry them in church? I know that the wedding is in church and all that good stuff about marriage being a holy sacrament where two become one flesh. But isn’t it tacky to propose in church? Idk, this is super trivial but what are your thoughts?

Hi,

So what is 'tacky' or not is not too subjective. I personally don't get the whole idea of a proposal considering that it's mainly for show...or atleast recently and from people that I know. Almost every proposal I have been part of, the girl knew about it and in mainly cases, organized the whole thing. But I am also seen the few propose in a very intimate and non-'showy' way (like sitting somewhere alone and "would you marry me" was the puzzle that both were solving).

So, in my opinion, it really depends on what satisfies the couple.

‘Tacky’ is indeed subjective. And doesn’t the girl planning the proposal defeat the whole purpose?

@Girgisantony...exactly my point...but sadly, that's what has become of it...while the exception are the guys that really really try to surprise the girl.
