Glastonbury proposal

[Colin78]

Hello fellow Glastonbury goers, I'm proposing to my amazing, wonderful     girlfriend of 4 years, who is a true lover of Glastonbury, & has been to the past 4 out of 5. It is a dream of hers that her eventual true love (hoping that's me) pops the question at her 2nd home. I would love to make it as special as possible, with limited resources and only my girlfriends dad & step mother coming with us, I'm extremely limited to how special a proposal I can make this. I was wondering/hoping wether anyone that can help by advising How I could organise something like a flash mob. Slightly ambitious I know but any advise would be most grateful. Thank you all and what a line up! #glastonbury

If you post this on the chat board rather than questions you might be able to organise a flash mob. perhaps at the efestivals meet on the wednesday night? that could work.

OR you could tweet @glastofreepress with your proposal and if they print it you can go and pick up the paper together on thursday (or sunday) maybe message them to request thursday) and let her find it!

Hi, not that I know of I'm afraid. There Twitter seems quiet at the moment as well, but maybe tweet them and ask for an email address?

Good luck, I really hope this goes well for you, this was me last year http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-33278840 kinda went viral for 3 days....which i wasnt expecting but was awesome. Please let me know if you arrange the flash mob, we'd love to be part of it. You dont really need a lot of resources, I used 3x bedsheets and some black paint

get the proposal written on a bin,.

whos her favourite band playing there? You could try contacting them and seeing if they could get involved in some way. Definitely post in the chat group if you want to get a flash mob going I know lots of people would probably love to get involved. I saw a really lovely proposal a few years ago up on the hill by the Glastonbury sign he blindfolded her and took her up by the sign and had some friends holding up boards reading will you marry me when she took the blindfold off and looked back down the hill. The backdrop of Glastonbury must have been amazing!

Aww that sounds lovely!  I think getting a favourite band involved or asking on the chat group re a flash mob are good suggestions.

I don't know your girlfriend (obviously) but if it's her dream for you to propose at Glastonbury she might not need a grand gesture. Are you likely to find organising something like that stressful?  I'm sure there will be plenty of special moments you could choose, looking at the view, after you hear one of her favourite songs or one that has meaning for you both.

Or you could contact one of the craft stalls in advance and have something made and on display with "XX will you marry me?" for her to spot when browsing.

Please post back on here afterwards and let us know how it goes. All the best.

This is their only post and no responses back to all your suggestions?

This geezer better get his arse into gear

@Colin78 That is so lovely!! It's my first Glastonbury this year so I'll definitely be looking out for your proposal 

@Bodman well done on such an epic proposal!!

[GlastoEls]

I did it at Glasto 2011.

No grand gesture, just some old school one knee action at midnight in Avalon.

Good luck mate. Hope it all goes well. I'll be doing it this year on the Thursday at sunset. Up the big hill. Enjoy the festival man!
