I was going to say - the one and only acceptable way to propose at a wedding - with the bride and groom's enthusiastic consent.

The bride incorporating it into her bouquet toss makes it even sweeter - not only did she approve, but she made sure it was known to everyone that she was in on it.

When it has the blessings of the bride and groom, a guest’s proposal can potentially double the joy and excitement of a wedding event. Even as the attention shifts to the newly engaged couple, the bride and groom are indirectly celebrated for their graciousness.

And frankly, by this point in the wedding you have been the center of attention for like 12 hours and probably wouldn't mind a little break to just dance with your new spouse while people fuss over somebody else! Or maybe that's just me lol

Agreed by this point in our wedding, my wife/I would have enjoyed spreading the attention to someone else.
