Love is a magical thing, but even true lovers might need a little nudge to make up their mind for tying the knot with their significant other. If your partner is going to say "yes" to your marriage proposal, the chances are that their reason for doing so is going to be based on more than just how epic the actual proposal idea is.

However, if your partner is still unsure whether to marry you or not, then a creative proposal like one of those listed below might just help to tip the balance. One way or another. Kneeling to one knee and whispering the magic words "Will you marry me?" does not cut it to this fun proposal ideas list. From a customized Monopoly game and a cornfield message to an epic ring carrier dolphin, this inspiration tally compiled by Bored Panda, will make you realize that whatever fantastic thing you were planning to do...well, it probably wasn't as amazing as you thought.

These are all so sweet. I'd be fine with a simple proposal with a rubber band as a ring. And yet, almost five years into the relationship... still waiting.
