Guy Hides Marriage Proposal In Every Photo With His Girlfriend For Months
Fish delivery drivers know a thing or two about being slippery. Ray Smith, a 38-year-old delivery driver from Grimsby, UK, spent 5 months sneaking the words “Will you marry me?” into photographs of him and his pregnant girlfriend, Claire Bramley, 33. 148 photos, to be exact, in his everyman quest to come up with a romantic proposal.
“I searched online for unusual proposals and I saw ideas like flash mobs and that sort of thing,” Smith told Metro. “So I decided to come up with my own idea to take a picture every day for five months.” As for Clair’s response? “I was totally surprised, but in hindsight it’s exactly the kind of thing he does…I said yes straight away, I didn’t need to think about it.”

“I originally thought about popping the question in a hot air balloon,” said Ray
“I have been planning to propose for a while and I knew I wanted to do something romantic”
“In June we received some great news that Claire was expecting a baby, which put a stop to that plan”
“I decided to come up with my own idea to take a picture every day for five months”
“I told her I was taking the pictures to track the progress of the baby”
“Sometimes she wanted to see the pictures so I had to take more than one – one with the card and one without”
“I had no clue, I was totally oblivious to it all,” said Claire
“He told me he was taking the pictures to create memories for the baby so I just let him get on with it”
“It was really stressful putting it all together, it took a lot of hard work. She nearly caught me a couple of times but I just had to pray it worked”
“He likes to do romantic things”
Ray went so far as to tease his future fiancee about proposing
“I actually started teasing her saying 2016 is a leap year, and she should actually propose to me”
But finally, as Christmas approached, it was time
“It was all a bit chaotic on Christmas Day morning so I took her away and set it all up on the laptop. I got down on one knee and gave her a bit of spiel, and then popped the question”

Share on FacebookWhat's wrong with so many of you?! I'm a thirty year veteran copy editor, and I didn't care one whit about this gentleman's grammar or punctuation. It's an expression of love and joy, and no one should be so nasty to criticize his language skills, his motives, or certainly the length of their upcoming marriage. You people should be ashamed of yourselves for dumping your dark clouds on these people AND those of us who enjoy sharing in this sweet gesture. I pity those of you who did that. Perhaps you could be positive, courteous, and thoughtful for just a few minutes of your lives.
Oh my friend...Be cool and be positive...Some people are more precise than us.They can see some things that we are not able to recognize them. So be nicer with them😄First of all I have the best wishes for the couple. I think the whole of story is about a man who tried hard to hide a visit card with a beautiful massage in the pictures which are taken by himself and some SELFIEs as well.Claire , the woman in the pictures claimed that she was not aware of that visit card and what was written on it. I just quote from her ; "I had no clue, I was totally oblivious to it all"It'sVery interesting!!! Here is my question. First picture was taken on July 31,2015 is a selfie picture. I think she could see herself and the photographer and the VISIT CARD in the screen of the smartphone (or any electronic devices which had a digital camera)because camera was on selfie mode and worked like a mirror! The picture was taken on August 30,2015.it's another selfie😂ok bro! have a nice day 😂😂

Plot twist: Will is a man and that is not a question.
Load More Replies...He said he took 2 of the same pictures, one with the sign and the second one without the sign. So if she asked to see the pic he just took he would show her the one without the sign. He said it was very hard still to keep her from seeing the picture with the sign.
Load More Replies...she's pregnant with him, they live together and she sayd yes? what a plot twist!
Loved ingenious ways he snuck the question into the photo. My fav was the one on the stairs. My fav photo however is him kissing her tummy.
I'm curious about the fact that his girlfriend never asked to take a look at those pictures?
It says she did sometimes, so he would take a picture without the card.

After 8 years of marriage, my husband left me with our three children. I felt like my life was about to end,and was falling apart. Thanks to a spell caster called papa Justus who i met online. On one faithful day, as I was browsing through the internet, I was searching for a good spell caster that can solve my problems. I came across series of testimonies about this particular spell caster. Some people testified that he brought their Ex lover back, some testified that he restores womb, some testified that he can cast a spell to stop divorce and so on. There was one particular testimony I saw, it was about a woman called Grace,she testified about how papa Justus brought back her Ex lover in less than 72 hours and at the end of her testimony she drop papa Justus e-mail address. After reading all these,I decided to give papa a try. I contacted h
What a waste of time. To waste months while she's pregnant with his child, to delay proposing??? What insane planet are we on that the majority would find this sweet? I'm repulsed, but it is their life, their choice and their happiness. I'd be angry if my bf did this to me.
MY MAN OF FOUR YEARS START CHEATING ON ME HE DON'T USE TO CALL ME, HE ALWAYS GOING OUT WITH OTHER GIRLS ANY TIME I CALLED HIM HE BOUNCE MY CALLS. I WAS SO WORRIED BECAUSE I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND WE ALREADY PLANS FOR MARRIAGE AND I TRIED ALL I CAN TO MAKE SURE THAT HE COME TO HIS NORMAL SENSES BUT NOTHING WORKED OUT. THINGS WHERE GETTING BAD, I WAITED FOR YEAR FOR HIM TO CHANGE AND PROPOSE MARRIAGE BUT HE DID NOT PROPOSE MARRIAGE TO ME, WHEN IT BECAME UNBEARABLE FOR ME I TOLD A FRIEND WHO TOLD ME TO CONTACT DR EMUA. THAT HE CAN HELP ME IN THIS SITUATION, AND I WAS A GIRL WHO DOSE NOT BELIEVE ON SPELL, SO THE LAST TIME I CALLED MY MAN HE PICKED MY CALL, ALL I COULD HEAR FROM HIM IS TO TELL ME THAT HE HAS GOT ANOTHER GIRL IN SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP I WAS SO CONFUSE AND I CALLED MY FRIEND (TRACY) AND TOLD HER WHAT I JUST HAD FROM MY MAN. SHE STILL REMIND ME OF DR EMUA, THAT HE IS THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN HELP ME SOLVED MY PROBLEM BY BRINGING MY MAN BACK TO ME. SO THERE WAS NO OPTION FOR ME I TO
Are you insane??? Why would you WANT to marry a cheating bastard? If he's cheating before the wedding, he'll cheat through the marriage!!! WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!
Load More Replies...Lovely idea, but how did she not see the message when he was taking the selfies?
Did you take all of these with a disposable camera? That's the only way I can see this actually working...
He could have taken it with virtually ANY KIND OF CAMERA besides a front facing one. doesn't have to be disposable..
Load More Replies...The Guy is in love and happy, so he proposed, but if he was a really a gentleman, he could have married her first and then got her pregnant, i really liked the tag line, but got ohhhh ok when saw that she was pregnant Leslie Bednar , if this guy was really thoughtful, he couldn't have though about marriage first and then the baby i loved the Idea and concept, but didn't like the current situation So girls who are really going cute and mushy on this pic, no comments, but u got something to think about in life
Ok, You are Happy and you proposed, and shouldn't that be before she getting pregnant, and if she was married first and then having a baby, that would have been sense able and given her a bundle of joy, GOD i hate it when people go reverse with nature , i really don't see the True Romance in this , and Leslie Bednar , if he was so thoughtful, he couldn't have married her first, and then made her pregnant As far as i know, Married Couple have children (married / known by two family's)
Hmmm. yeah, but we can't be sure that he had already bought the ring and sat on it for 5 months, making sure he *definitely* wanted to marry her (or just to take these photos). He very likely could've come up with his proposal idea while saving up for the ring.
