Reply to comment by chalupa_batman_xx in Finally watched “It’s a wonderful life” What do you all think about Mary? I find her to be a very interesting character by Burning_Mouth
It plays every year at the old movie palace in our town and it was in front of it before a screening of it in 2016 that I got on one knee and proposed to my now-wife. It has always been a special movie for us but now it's our movie and our annual tradition.
And yes, I worked into my proposal the line "Would you be my wonderful...wife" because I am not now nor have I ever been cool.

That sounds so romantic!! Good for you. And that proposal is way cooler than my husband's, who got on one knee holding the ring and then sat there totally silent because he was nervous 😂 I was like, "Are you going to ask or...?" Lol.

So I had our photographer and members of her family all hiding out around the area behind power boxes and light rail steps and forgot they didnt all know each other so that led to some fun "Uhhhh youre here for the proposal?" conversations while they hid.
Also fun: The Crest offers a small bar during screenings and since we had like 12 people there to see the film after the proposal I went down to the bar where there was a "Maximum 3 drinks per guest" sign and I was like "Can I just this once get 12 champagnes? I assure you Im not like Dudley Moore in Arthur or anything. These are for other people" and people behind me in line were like "hey youre that guy that proposed outside! Congratulations!" And they all chipped in and bought the champagnes for us.

Rockefeller Center, NYC. We’re looking at rings and the sales lady (with her thick Eastern European accent) says to my now husband, “Joove gots to azzk herrr, now!” He had the ring in his hand and when he went to open his mouth completely lost his composure. She didn’t know he was on the verge of tears. She was quite exasperated with him! LOL! He finally got himself together and of course, I said yes!
