Anyone who has survived high school English class is familiar with Shakespeare’s piece “Julius Cesar.” Who would have thought that such a tragedy would be the inspiration for a proposal?

The famous quote of the play, “Beware the Ides of March,” foreshadows Cesar’s death where he is stabbed by trusted friends, including his best friend who puts his dagger straight into Cesar’s back. It happened on March 15th, the Ides of March.

Well this groom decided to it would be a good idea to mesh this literary masterpiece with his future wife’s birthday and proposal. Since the fashion of choice back then was togas, everyone at the party is wearing one and they all rush the door when she comes in. Look closely…some even  have knives.

Yup, it’s a bit peculiar, but she says “Yes!” and there’s no doubt she was surprised. We’re just glad no one got stabbed, but kudos on the creative March proposal!
