DH proposed twice. Once officially and once unofficially. He hadn't asked my dad for the unofficial one, we say he only did the official one.

The official one was my 18th birthday. He took me on a hot air balloon ride. When you go on a hot air balloon they make you fill out all these forms - Including your weight. Thankfully I am not so embarrased about that!! But it certainly is interesting having to publicise your weight at 5am on your 18th birthday!! We were flying over the Barossa Valley when he asked, he didn't have room to get down on 1 knee. Those baskets are small!! The hot air balloon company included a Champagne Breakfast in the deal so we followed it with a lovely breakfast, and then my mum had to drive his car as were both on our Ps so had to have a 0 blood alcohol level. It was very romantic, and something that I had wanted to do for ages. We chose the ring together almost a year earlier, when DH had just gotten home from basic training.
