Modern, he asked while standing. We were on vacation watching a fountain show and he didn't want to draw too much attention to us, which I appreciated since there was over a thousand people there.

Traditional. He got down on one knee at the top of the tallest ski lift in North America in the middle of a blizzard!

Very modern. I proposed to him online in a message, and he's not having a ring. I bought him an untraditional romantic pendant (he loves the Xenomorphs in Alien).

Highly untraditional engagement bling

He hasn't even seen it yet, as I want to present it in person to see his face. If I get on one knee, it will be tricky to put round his neck.

There’s my first traditional answer in this game. He definitely got down on one knee. I think I would’ve made him if he didn’t.

Ultra modern here. I proposed to him (not in a leap year) without asking permission, without a ring and I did it online through messaging! 😂

Mixed?? We set our wedding date over a casual phone call and then months later he got down on one knee to present the ring to me.

Traditional. He got down on one knee and popped the question.
