Would it be tacky to propose to my g/f on my grandfathers 32 foot yacht with my grandparents on the boat?

I think it sounds like a great idea! Very romantic, just tell your gramps to give you room and you will come see him when you've celebrated!

Congratualtion, and can I give you my boyfriends email so you can pass the word on to HURRY haha just kidding

Goodluck! And never loose the romance!

I think that would be great, I wouldn't mind that. She has been in your life a long time and will be part of your family, so why not share this with them. Tell your grandfather your intentions, I am sure they will make themselves scarce whenever you signal them to or reach a predetermined location where you wish to actually propose. If the yacht has a cabin underneath, they can disappear there while you pop the question and then you can go share the happy news with them when she says yes. I think it is a good omen that your grandparents, who have probably been married a long time, will be there at the official start of the planning of your new lives together. Also, I think it has the basis for a great surprise, ya'll are just going to visit your grandparents and take a yacht ride, she probably won't expect anything, like she might at a restaurant or something.

Of course it is okay, and sounds very romantic. If you can find a little privacy on the yacht, a secluded little corner because you need to be alone when you actually "pop" the question....but other people being on the boat is fine. Tell them what you are up to and ask them to make themselves scarce at the time you plan on doing it....I am sure your family will be tickled pink if they are let in on the secret before hand. And what a beautiful location for a proposal. Girlfriend will love it......but hey, we females are always excited over a proposal....I think I would be excited if he did it while I was sitting on the loo! A proposal is a proposal after all.

Congrats....Im sure you will be fine

First of all, tell your grandfather what you want to do.

Tell your grandfather that you would like to ask her to marry you (get engaged) on his boat, and tell him that you would like to do it with your family and friends around.

You could ask your grandad if you can have a small party on the boat and have wine and food.

Sounds really romantic .................... but ..........

Don't take the boat out yourself, because you will have no time to propose if you are there navigating and steering the boat ..... leave that to your grandad. He will find a nice quiet calm place to moore it, have a few eats and drinks, then pop the question.

Good luck ...... but leave the boat in your grandad's hands.

No that wouldn't be tacky at all, in fact it's very romantic and unique. I wish my fiance would've thought of doing something like that, but we don't know anyone with a boat LOL, she would be swept off of her feet! I don't think you have to worry about her saying no, she would be a fool if she did. I wish you the best of luck and hope everything works out for you!! : )

What a wonderful way to propose. Grandma and Grandpa can add something special when she says yes, like Welcome to the family. She will feel really special since you had family there even if it was because the boat did not belong to you. Celebate with your grandparents afterward...

That is really sweet, I would just ask your grandfather, tell him you have intentions of proposing to your G.F he will probably just say...take it. Good luck

And no i don't think you should ask her if they are there, she will want to react the way she feels comfortable with you, not with the grand folks around...it is an intimate thing.

I personally would rather it be me and my boyfriend ONLY during the proposal...but it's a personal preference. Is she close to your grandfather at all? Would he actually be a witness "right there" or is there a "hidden" place where it could be somewhat private?

I dont see why it would be tacky cause my husband did it to me he proposed in front of my mom so i dont think it would be tacky...your just letting your family know thats the girl you love and want to spend the rest your life with

If she says no, you are setting yourself up for a bad rest of the boat ride...

Ask her somewhere she has a place to go.
