Glastonbury proposals

[sophlamb]

My boyfriend proposed to me this year at the festival and of course I said yes! It was late Friday afternoon at the West Holts stage and he got down on one knee in the mud with a ring he bought at the festival. It was absolutely lovely and I did not expect it at all

On the way out we were listening to Worthy FM and heard a few other stories about proposals so we tweeted in and ours got read out too.

I thought it would be nice to hear if any other efesters have any Glastonbury proposal/wedding/honeymoon/stag or hen party stories they'd like to share too as I'm feeling completely loved up!

Not my own story as such, but I saw somebody propose on stage once, when London Community Gospel Choir (I think) were doing the Acoustic. This was a Sunday afternoon, so everybody was a bit emotional as it was. She said yes, thankfully, but then they did Bridge Over Troubled Water straight after - had a bit of a moment to say the least.

There was a proposal during Gregory Porter.  Ok they were part of GP's crew, but still Gregory sang a tune for them and the whole pyramid field cheered, was lovely.

Saw one up on the hill Friday afternoon, and then in the crowd during Adele, back centre of pyramid.

Yep, I did on Wednesday evening at around 8:00pm up near the bar above the Park. Sounds like some of you may have heard the cheers

Saw this one in the Theatre Field in collaboration with the New York Brass Band

hobo jones got a couple up out of the crowd on the saturday night in the avalon cafe.

The band pretended it was a compaition they had won to sing with them but when he asked the bloke to do a soundcheck on the guest mic he got down on one knee and asked the question she said yes.

all the band where in on it and the crowd gave a massive cheer.

It was a nice moment.

My nephew proposed to his girlfriend whilst Adele was on.  Lovely surprise for us all

On our way in on Sunday through Gate C, the group behind us said something like:

How are you man?
Fuck, totally wasted, Shangri La was mental, got in at 6am
Yeah, did you see .... propose to .... down there?
What?
Yeah, she said yes
Wow that's really cool, so happy for them

And so it starts...

We saw a proposal at the Glastonbury sign on the Wednesday evening. I am sure this lady had a red dress on but I was knee deep in cider by that point so my colour radar could of been a little off.....

Saw a couple do the equivalent of renewing their vows in the Healing Fields area on Thursday (I think). Was really nice!

We got chatting to a guy watching who had a traffic cone hat on, turns out he was the best man.

I proposed to my now wife last year, it was her first glastonbury and after the annual new york new york in the john Peel tent i asked her if she enjoyed the festival? she said she loved it, so I asked her would she come back next year as Mrs overton and she said yes. We came back this year and it was our honeymoon.
