Guys sometimes get labeled as not paying attention to the details. So, when a guy somehow conveys his own perspective of the couple’s love story, girls instantly melt into the perfect “yes!” the guy is hoping for. Here are some great ways to tell your love story to your lady before popping the question.

1) Make a book
Nothing says story book love like an actual story book. Gather old photos together, make an album or scrapbook and just have at it. If your lady loves princesses, do it in the format of a fairy tale starting with a “Once Upon a Time…” and ending with the ring! Or, get extra sentimental and leave the last chapter blank, get down on one knee, and ask her to write the chapter together by moving onto this new chapter in your lives. She’ll love it!

2) Make a video montage
This is a super sweet way to tell a story. You’ll need to gather some pictures, maybe even some home videos, and edit together in a perfect film complete with great music and even some written narration. She’ll love watching the good memories flash before her eyes AND she’ll have it forever to share on Youtube and Facebook. Check out this guy’s video below!

3) Re-enact it
Now this is cute, especially if you have a lot of family and friends who’d love to get involved. Have some kind of show and give each people parts. You don’t even have to tell her the story is about the two of you. Let her figure it out on her own. Then in the middle of the performance, pop the question! She’ll think it’s super sweet and creative.

What do you think? How would you tell your love story?
