Best Celebrity Marriage Proposals

Celebrities are well known for being over the top and celebrity engagements are not an exception. From large diamond rings to popping the question on live television, here is a countdown of the best celebrity marriage proposals:

Celebrity Proposal Ideas

• Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker

  Their proposal has sparked a proposal trend that is still going strong.  We get asked to recreate this proposal idea all the time. Travis took her to the beach and she was completely blown away to see a field of roses seemingly growing out of the sand.  He walked her into the middle of the roses where there were also candles and a monogram and he proposed.

• Paris Hilton and Carter Reum

  Paris thought they were just going to the beach for a photo shoot. Then, in front of a beautifully decorated area adorned with flowers, Carter dropped to his knee and proposed.

• Dwayne Wade and Gabrielle Union

  Dwayne took her to their new home that was being built.  After touring the home, they went downstairs where she was surprised to see her kids performing a skit.  After the skits, they all held up signs that said, “Will You Marry Us?”  Dwayne dropped to his knee and proposed.

• Kanye West and Kim Kardashian 

  Kanye rented out a stadium to propose to Kim.  He blindfolded her and lead her out to the center.  When he took off her blindfold, she was shocked to hear a 50 member orchestra serenading her with her favorite song, “Young and Beautiful.

• Seal and Heidi Klum

  Heidi Klum described Seal’s proposal as a “once in a lifetime event”. The singer arranged for a helicopter to deliver the couple to a 14,000-foot tall glacier. An igloo was built atop the glacier, which contained a covered with rose petals, candles, and champagne. Seal asked for Heidi’s hand in marriage with a 10-karat diamond ring.

• Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon

  Ryan Phillippe took a hint from popular marriage blogs when he proposed to actress Reese Witherspoon. He proposed to her at the Planter’s Inn, bed and breakfast in Savannah, Georgia. He proposed while serving Witherspoon waffles with strawberries and whipped cream in bed.

• De’Aaron Fox and Recee Caldwell

  Right before signing his multi-million dollar contract with the Sacramento Kings, De’Aaron hired The Heart Bandits for his marriage proposal.  We set up 4 foot Marry Me letters and flowers on the beach.  Recee was totally surprised and of course said yes!

• Courtney Cox and David Arquette

  David Arquette proposed to Courtney Cox on a beach in Florida. This may seem like a typical engagement, but the star factor occurred as Arquette arranged for fireworks to go off as soon as he asked her to marry him.

• Pink and Carey Hart

  Pink took the ropes on this proposal, asking boyfriend Carey Hart to marry her. While Hart was doing laps on a motor cross track, the singer held up a sign that asked “Will You Marry Me?” She then flipped the sign over to reveal the message “I’m serious.”

• Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott

  This proposal was centered on one of Spelling’s favorite holidays: Christmas. Dean arranged for a horse-drawn carriage to take him and Spelling down a path lit with Christmas lights. At the end of the path, stood a table surrounded by Christmas trees, holding a diamond and sapphire ring. Can you say picture perfect?

• Katherine Heigl and Josh Kelley

  Josh Kelley’s proposal to Katherine Heigl was nothing short of thoughtful. As the couple met on the set of one of Josh’s music videos, Josh took her back to the same bungalow where they first met to ask for her hand in marriage.

• Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise

  Tom Cruise proposed to Katie Holmes just as every little girl imagines it. He took her to a restaurant in Paris called Le Jules Verne for a romantic dinner. The couple then went to the top of the Eiffel Tower, where Tom Cruise popped the question.

• Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon

  Nick Cannon’s proposal was actually the inspiration for Mariah Carey’s perfume called Lollipop Bling. To ask for her hand in marriage, Nick creatively presented Mariah with a ring pop that contained the engagement ring.
