My cousin wants to propose at my wedding

Giant NO. agree with other PP's. Tell him his gf deserves a proposal all for her, and not at someone else's celebration.

I would definitely say no. I think your wedding day should be about the couple getting married and no one else.

Hell no! You're not hosting this long awaited, expensive party to celebrate your union just so he can LEECH off of it!

I like that he is trying to be romantic, but he must not be thinking about you and how you feel. Tell him no. Explain your feelings if you think it will help him understand, but don't sugarcoat it at all.

No. It's rude of him to ask (wait did he ask, or just tell you he was planning on doing it? Cause that's even ruder!). PP have given you great ideas of what to say to be nice. I would probably respond much less graciously. And I would have been mortified if FH proposed to me this way.

Nope!! He can choose another day.

Why do people insist on doing this? Get your own day!

You are not being selfish. You're paying thousands of dollars for YOUR wedding. Not his proposal and built in engagement party. No. It's just wrong. Tacky. No no no.

I also think it's humiliating to the one being proposed to. Everyone deserves their OWN day and time.

Why??? Why do sooo many people think it's appropriate to propose at someone else's wedding! I have seen multiple posts about family members wanting to do this, so friggin weird

Nooooooo - he can find another day.

I love how one of the most common pieces of advice on this forum is that this is NOT "your day". The reception is for your guests. "It's MY Day!" is one of the most despised phrases that brides say. However, whenever this particular the topic comes up, those same people suddenly freak out and respond with "No way!! It's your day!! It should only be about the couple and no one else". I just find it funny. It is completely contradictory.

In any case, if it makes you feel uncomfortable, I would say something. He may just be oblivious that it would bother you or interfere with your event.

I would say no. If I were the girl being proposed to, I would be super uncomfortable and awkward. Save them both the side eye and tell him to choose another day.

While it would be a cute idea, it is YOUR day which you spent a lot of time planning. All eyes should be on you and your future spouse on that day! I would simply bring it up and let him know you do not think it is the right place and time. This may have him think about planning it a little more special for her.

It's ok to be selfish. It's yours and your FH day. Just mention to your cousin that it is sweet he wants to propose, it shouldn't be at your wedding. You're putting a lot of work into planning your day. You don't want your wedding to be overshadowed by a proposal. Her day will come but it shouldn't be 9/2/17.

Nope! Tell him it's not appropriate. It's your day, you spent a lot of money on it.

That'd be a huge no from me. I get one day. There are plenty of other special times for proposing

There was forum on this very issue just a few days ago. Don't do it. It'll ruin your special day. what would happen if the other girl said, "NO"?

Bad idea...

It's your day, not his.

Nope nope and nope! You and your FH only get one day and it is YALL'S day. He needs to find another day to propose.

OP you are 100% right in your feelings. You aren't being selfish at all. You and your FH have earned this day and you should have the spotlight on you, this is your one day! That's a hard pass for me. Tell your cousin not to do this at your wedding and you can even offer to help come up with a better proposal if you want!
