March 2007: Proposal Right on Par

Flowers and candlelight are always romantic, but sometimes there's nothing sweeter than a proposal that celebrates a couple's favorite pastime. Such is the case for this month's Marrying Man of the Month, simply known as Jason a.k.a Mr. March. His creative proposal consisted of popping the question to his golf-loving girlfriend at their favorite spot: on the green at Bill Roberts Golf Course in Helena, Montana. As the couple was playing a round of golf one morning, the couple noticed something strange: the flag was missing from the cup at the 18th green.

As Jason's girlfriend Danielle scurried over to investigate, she was incensed to find what she thought was trash blocking the hole. One woman's trash is the same woman's treasure however, because when her boyfriend opened the object, Danielle saw that what she thought was debris was actually a diamond and pearl encrusted egg, containing an engagement ring!

Our Mr. March then got down on one knee and proposed right there at the eighteenth green. As Danielle tearfully accepted, their family and friends emerged from their hiding place in the woods to congratulate the happy couple, and our Marrying Man even arranged to have the golf course announce the engagement over the loudspeaker.

The twosome is now joyfully planning a wedding that would make Tiger Woods weep with jealousy. If you want to take a cue from Mr. March and plan a golf-themed wedding of your own, click here to browse our full range of golf-related groomsmen gifts for inspiration.
