Create your own podcast proposal and sneak it onto her iPod.
Upload a video of your proposal on YouTube (tell her you have a hysterical home movie to show her).
Steal her digital camera and head to her favorite local outdoor spot. Bring a friend with you and have posters made with the words "will," "you," "marry," "me?" Have your friend photograph you holding each one in a different position. Then, let her know you borrowed her camera and ask if she will upload your photos.

Here's my favorite Top Ten Romantic Songs to Pop the Question....
maybe you'll get some inspiration to write....
Here are some of my all time favorites...
1. The Beatles - Something (1969)
This is the only song written by George Harrison to be released as the A-side of single by the group. It also quickly became the most covered song by the group outside of "Yesterday".This is my all time favorite. It is the most perfect of love songs.
2. Elton John - Your Song (1970)
Few pop songs are more perfectly written than this loving tribute. "It's a little bit funny this feeling inside"
3. Paul McCartney - Maybe I'm Amazed (1977)
One of the most eloquent depictions of the inability to adequately express love in words.
4. Roberta Flack - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (1972)
Originally a folk song from the 1950's, Roberta Flack made this classic truly her own in a soaring, sensual performance.
5. Billy Joel - Just the Way You Are (1977)
This love classic was written as a birthday gift for Billy Joel's wife.
6. Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars (2006)
It first came to prominence through inclusion on the soundtrack of the TV show Grey's Anatomy but this song's words of devotion make it memorable well beyond it's inclusion on TV.
7. The Beatles - And I Love Her (1964)
Classic love songs don't come much simpler than this!
8. Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight (1978)
A tired evening brings out some of the ultimate acclaim for a treasured lover.
9. Modern English - I Melt With You (1983)
The ultimate new wave love song depicts a future that is "open wide."
10. Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody (1965)
This song has a long and fascinating history beginning with its use as a theme from a prison movie Unchained in 1955. However, the Righteous Brothers delivered the deservedly best-known version. Remember Rebecca in Cheers, she just loved it!!!
The most Important Marriage Proposal Idea - Be Yourself!
Finally, remember that your love will love you no matter how you propose. As long as you are sincere, and you show her how much you really care and want to spend the rest of your life with her, how you propose is only a lovely addition to all of the wonderful times to come!
