Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

Let ESSENCE help you put together a marriage proposal she’ll never forget

Last February we helped six men plan surprise marriage proposals in the pages of this magazine. Millions logged on to essence.com to view the proposals and vote for the couple they wanted to receive a dream honeymoon. Now it could be your turn. If you’re ready to propose marriage, tell us how you met your beloved, what makes your woman so special to you, and why you’re looking forward to the future with her. Submissions should be sent to [email protected] no later than September 30, 2007, along with your full name, address, daytime and evening phone numbers and a photo of you and your special lady.
