Spell it out<\/h2>\n

There’s nothing cryptic about this public display of love and impending nuptials. Other variations include an ‘I do’<\/em> arrangement, with the wedding ring replacing the ‘o’.<\/p>\n

What could be more indicative of ‘tying the knot’ than a ring on a piece of rope?<\/p>\n

Nature<\/h2>\n

Unfortunately we can’t all be hand models. If you can’t wait to get your nails done to show off your new jewellery, slip it on a stick and let it shine against a bokeh backdrop of rustic autumn leaves.<\/p>\n

Text book love<\/h2>\n

Did they meet in a library? Or perhaps he proposed there, nestled in amongst poetic romance novels of bygone eras. Whatever the case, this couple’s engagement pic has made the Instagram history books.<\/p>\n

Snakes & lovers<\/h2>\n

Not for the faint-hearted, slithering props add another dimension to the traditional Instagram engagement pic. This is the part where we advise you to not try this at home. *Unless you actually know what you’re doing.<\/p>\n

There is nowhere else these two would rather be than exactly where they are in this photo – what an emotion to capture!<\/p>\n

Flower power<\/h2>\n

One for the gardeners; use a rare and beautiful orchid to display your precious ring.<\/p>\n

Military salute<\/h2>\n

You can’t help but wonder how long they may have been separated by service, but it will take more than distance to keep this military couple apart.<\/p>\n

Yin & Yang<\/h2>\n

Could this couple’s clutched hands be symbolic of two opposing forces coming together to complement each other? Or is it just the handiwork of a creative photographer? Either way, we dig it.<\/p>\n
