A couple of weeks ago, the media was abuzz with John Mayer's plans to propose 'creatively' to Jennifer Aniston. Last week, the Waiting on the World to Change singer finally proposed.
Apparently he told Jen that she is the girl for him and he is sure of it. He is willing to do anythig she wants as long as they are together. Aww!
Friends close to the couple say that John really wants to settle down with her. He wants children, marriage - the whole thing at some point. Isn't that awesome?
It's another thing that Jen turned him down though because she didn't want to ruin the way things were between them with a stressful wedding. Well, we still love John's proposal.
But John's not the only one in tinseltown who knows how to propose. We give you some of the most romantic celebrity proposals that worked!
