Would You Pay for the Perfect Proposal?

You're going to tell the story of how he proposed about a hundred times after the deed is done. You know this, we know this, and you hope he knows this. But if you're feeling like he can't handle the pressure (or you simply have your sights set on a certain romantic scenario), now you can advise him to hire some help!

With lost future fiances in mind, Kym Pitlor and Erin Mavian founded Blueprint Proposals [3], a proposal concierge firm that helps men pop the question. They offer a free consultation followed by two fail-proof proposal plans for prices ranging from $250 to $1,000, which would involve Mavian and Pitlor's full participation. Their argument? "If you're going to spend $30,000 on an engagement ring, you want to make sure [the proposal] goes well," Mavian said.
I've never been on the giving or receiving end of a marriage proposal [4], but please trust that I've heard my fair share of sweet stories and none have ever included two paid consultants and the exchange of cash. My faves have actually been the ones where only the two most important people are involved.
What do you think: Is it totally impersonal to farm out your proposal or could it be worth the dough?
