Bestman wants to propose at my wedding

I read the title of this thread as "Batman wants to propose..." and now I'm disappointed.

Aside from it not being nice to take the attention off of you and your FH, why on earth would she want to get proposed to in front of someone else's friends and family? I would have hated it as a bride but I think I would have hated it as a proposal even more.

No way! i can't believe there are some people that actually think this is ok!

he probably got the idea from that instagram page "how he asked" because i saw the same exact story on there recently - bride helped her MOH get engaged via the bouquet toss.

NOPE NOPE NOPE

It seriously disgusts me that people even get this idea. Way to steal someone's thunder.

Nope! No way! No how! My brother wanted to propose to his GF @ our wedding. I was super against it. This is OUR day. They have since broken up, so looks like I dodged a bullet LOL

Ummm NO! I would be furious. This is the one day it's about the bride and groom what a lunatic for even asking to do it at your wedding!!!! I'd make sure FH let him know absolutely not happening at your wedding. AND i'd be so mad if my FH proposed to me at someone else's wedding!!!!!!!!

FH can tell uncle that he and his girlfriend deserve their own day and shouldn't have to share it with you. Remind uncle there's no guarantee that his girlfriend will catch the bouquet or that she'll say YES! He can propose the next day.

Some people are okay with it, I, however, am not. It's going to be my special day, and I dont want the light on anyone else, with everyone congratulating someone else.

Not only would I want this at my own wedding, but I would HATE HATE HATE HATE if someone ever proposed to me that way.

I would hate this but as a compromise I would agree to toss the bouquet to her but the proposal would have to be later in the weekend/after ALL (including brunch if you're doing that) the wedding festivities are done.

Nope. It's your ONE day.

Nope not feeling it! People should congratulate you and your new husband on YOUR WEDDING DAY, not some other couple. That irks me just thinking about it!!!!!

The fact that anyone thinks this is ok is mind boggling. I would have flipped out if FH thought this was ok. People are so inconsiderate. I don't care what your relationship to the Bride or Groom is, but no one should ever try to take the spotlight off of the Bride and Groom.

I think it's super rude for him to even consider proposing on your and your husband's special day. FH and I were just watching a video of your exact situation on Facebook a few weeks ago and I expressed to him how irate I would be if someone pulled some crap like that at our wedding.

No. It's totally different if this was your sisters boyfriend or you SIL boyfriend or maybe your best friends boyfriend. Someone whom you are close and would feel happy to be a part of making that moment special. But someone you've only met once? No. Sorry, you have all right to deny that request

Nope. Would be different if it was my best friend but if I didn't know them then NOPE

Oh Lawd, and what if she said "No?"

Tacky and rude. I would feel so awkward if I was proposed to at someone else's wedding.

I will NEVER understand why people want to do this. There are 364 other days in a year, he can't pick one of those? If you are not okay with it, then it should not happen. Period.

Teamnope! Tanker full of nope. OOoooo what's in the box? It's a NOPE! He can pick a more appropriate time to propose that's not at your reception.
