Add the real place, the nerves and the exact words that were said, and let the drama build to a very happy ending.

Questions about this comic
Can I use the comic to actually propose?
You can. Tell the story in the 'anything special' field, then use the editor to change the words on the final page so it asks the question. Check every page before ordering, and allow 3 to 10 working days for printing plus shipping.
Can it retell the real proposal?
Yes. Describe where it happened, who cried first and what nearly went wrong in the 'anything special' field. Mention both of you in your answers, and the story ideas we write are built around the real moment.
