    Colin Firth and Lúcia Moniz in Love Actually (2003)

    Jamie to Aurelia: [in Portuguese] Beautiful Aurelia, I've come here with a view of asking you to marriage me. I know I seems an insane person - because I hardly knows you - but sometimes things are so transparency, they don't need evidential proof. And I will inhabit here, or you can inhabit with me in England.

    Bruce Boxleitner and Mira Furlan in Babylon 5 (1993)

    Capt. John Sheridan to Delenn: I, um - I wanted you to have this. I got it down in the Zocalo. It's not what I had exactly in mind, but, um - It's temporary until I can get you a real engagement ring. Um, it's an Earth custom. See, you give someone you love an engagement ring as kind of a down payment for another ring. The kind you exchange when you get married. I don't know when we will be able to get around to that part of it. We may not survive the next two weeks, but I wanted you to have this and to know that whatever time I have left, I want to spend it with you.

You've survived worse, and you know we'll survive too. You say you're all dark and twisty. It's not a flaw, it's a strength. It makes you who you are. I'm not gonna get down on one knee, I'm not gonna ask a question. I love you Meredith Grey, and I wanna spend the rest of my life with you.

There's a hidden trail that I used to go to as a child. Now there's a cove there that opens up to this beautiful lake. When the sun hits the horizon, I'd get down on one knee. And the rest of the world would fall away. Because it would just be you... I know this is a far throw from a hidden paradise. But wherever you are in the world, that's where I belong. Rachel Chu, will you marry me? And make me the happiest man in this world?

    Darren Criss and Chris Colfer in Glee (2009)

    Blaine to Kurt: We met right here, I took this man's hand and we ran down that hallway. And for those of you that know me know I'm not in the habit of taking people's hands I've never met before, but... I think that my soul knew something that my body and my mind didn't know yet. It knew that our hands were meant to hold each other, fearlessly and forever. Which is why it's never really felt like I've been getting to know you, it's always felt like I was remembering you from something. As if in every lifetime that you and I have ever lived we've chosen to come back and find each other and fall in love all over again, over and over for all eternity. And I just feel so lucky that I found you so soon in this lifetime because all I want to do, all I've ever wanted to do, is spend my life loving you. So, Kurt Hummel, my amazing friend, my one true love, will you marry me?

    Naya Rivera and Heather Elizabeth Morris in Glee (2009)

    Santana to Brittany: [...] Some people love someone because they make them a better person, and that's not why I love you, because you've always just wanted me to be myself. You're my favorite person in the whole world and we're a big deal, you know? Like, no matter how many times we've tried to put our thing down and walk away from it, we can't because I don't want to live my life without my one true love. And I normally use a lot of words when I'm saying something negative so since this is the most positive thing I'm ever gonna do, I'm gonna keep it simple. Brittany S. Pierce, will you marry me?

    Julia Roberts and Ed Harris in Stepmom (1998)

    Luke to Isabel: The first time I got married, we'd been together since college and marriage just seemed like the next step, it was just something that happened. But I think for two people to really love each other, to really commit to each other, it has to be an act of will, a decision. And I think two people have to live that decision every day, even when things are hard and you feel like giving up. You have to hang on to that decision, that choice to love each other, even if it's only by a thread. I let that thread break once. This time it won't. Will you marry me?

    Noah Reid and Dan Levy in Schitt's Creek (2015)

    Patrick to David: So, I used to come on this hike a lot when I first moved here. And I was developing feelings for this guy I had just gotten into business with and I didn't know what to do about it because I didn't know if that guy had the same feelings or if I'd ever be able to muster up the courage to let him know how I felt. And now, here he is, the love of my life, standing in front of me. And this just felt like the perfect place to ask you to marry me.

    Julie Benz in Dexter (2006)

    Dexter to Rita: My life has always felt like an unanswered question. A string of days and nights waiting for something to happen but I didn’t know what. Rita, we’re connected. Wherever I am, I feel you, and the kids, with me. You’re what makes me real. I want us to always go out for banana splits, and replant the lemon tree that keeps dying. And I never, ever want to miss pizza night. That’s how I know I want to marry you.

    Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010)

    Edward to Bella: I'm from a different era. Things were a lot less complicated. And if I would have met you back then, I would have courted you. Would've taken chaperoned strolls and had iced tea on the porch. I may have stolen a kiss or two, but only after asking your father's permission, I would've got down on one knee and I would've presented you with a ring. This was my mother's. Isabella Swan, I promise to love you every moment of forever. Would you do me the extraordinary honor of marrying me?

    Jennifer Garner and Michael Vartan in Alias (2001)

    Michael to Sydney: I was gonna take you to the beach. Santa Barbara. We'd go out for a walk, maybe when the sun was setting. But now we're here and I don't know what we're jumping into and I may never get another chance to do this again. Sometimes I wake up before you do and I watch you sleep and I'm overwhelmed because you're so amazing and I don't know why I'm lucky enough to have you in my life; but you're here with me. And I know I want to spend the rest of my life with you trying to make you as happy as you make me. Sydney Bristow, will you marry me?

    Jane Leeves and Saul Rubinek in Frasier (1993)

    Donny to Daphne: You know, I thought that being a divorce attorney would have just soured me on relationships, and then I met you. And I found myself telling my clients to reconcile, because I think that if they could find even just a tiny little bit of the happiness that I've found with you they could make it. I've been thinking about that time we went to the little bed-and-breakfast in the country and we sat in that porch swing all night, and looked at the sky. You told me that your dad and you used to sit on your step and do the same thing when you were a kid. He said that the only man good enough for you would "scoop the stars out of the sky with his hat and lay them at your feet." Well... I've only caught this one so far, but if you'll accept it, I'll spend my life chasing down the rest of them for you.

    Katherine Heigl and Seth Rogen in Knocked Up (2007)

    Ben to Alison: Look Alison, I'm sure this isn't how you pictured it being, exactly, and it's not how I wanted it to be, but that is why I'm presenting you this empty box. It's a promise, Alison. It's a promise that one day I will -- I will fill this box with a ring that you deserve, a beautiful ring. I can't afford it yet. I've picked it out already though, it's at De Beers, and it's really nice. So basically, I'm asking you, will you marry me? Because I'm in love with you.

    Gina Rodriguez and Brett Dier in Jane the Virgin (2014)

    Jane to Michael: So, instead of telling you the reasons why I love you, I'm gonna tell you the reasons why I don't. I don't love you because you're smart, and kind. I don't love you because you're hard-working and competitive and way too defensive. I don't love you because you are incredibly sexy. I love you because you're my best friend, and I want to grow old with you. And right now, I'm confused about every single thing in my life - except you.
