Top 10 celebrity proposals

5. Rebecca Romijn & Jerry O'Connell

In lieu of a grand public proposal, actor Jerry O'Connell and actress Rebecca Romijn got engaged in a personal place. While visiting New York, O'Connell took Romijn on a tour of the apartment where he spent his childhood and then asked for her hand in marriage.

6. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

After a mere two months of dating, Tom Cruise didn't waste much time before he proposed to Katie Holmes. He popped the question at the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The smitten actor also treated his bride-to-be to a candle-lit meal inside the Tower at the top-notch eatery, Le Jules Verne. Tom was so excited about their betrothal that he spilled all the beans at a press conference the next morning, where we were forced to witness the pair's PDA - again!

7. Heidi Klum and Seal

Seal pulled out all the stops for his extraordinary proposal to Heidi Klum.The singer whisked his supermodel girlfriend off in a helicopter and, while most of us would probably be chuffed with just that, he didn't stop there. He flew Heidi to the top of a 14,000 ft glacier where he had arranged for a specially-made igloo to be built. Inside was a bed covered in rose petals, dozens of candles and plenty of food and Champagne for them to celebrate with. Heidi later described it as a 'once-in-a-lifetime event', the lucky lady!

8. Courteney Cox and David Arquette

Funny man David Arquette tapped into his softer side when he popped the question to Courteney Cox. He proposed on a beach in Florida and arranged for fireworks to go off at the precise moment he asked her to marry him. Ahh bless!

9. Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman

Christina Aguilera's diva heart was well and truly melted when her music executive boyfriend Jordan Bratman proposed in one of the most touching ways imaginable. Whilst the pair were on holiday in Carmel, California, he stuffed their hotel room full with rose petals and gift boxes. Each box contained a present and a self-penned poem describing his feelings for the songstress. To her delight, when she finally opened the last box, she found a stunning five-carat ring and Jordan proceeded to get down on one knee and ask her to marry him.

10. Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones

The eve of the millennium was the date, and the Aspen home of Hollywood producer and actor Michael Douglas was the setting for a New Year's proposal. Following an evening of celebration to see in the new year/century/millennium, Douglas presented actress Catherine Zeta-Jones with an antique, 10-carat marquise-cut diamond ring. Zeta-Jones, then two months pregnant with the couple's son, said yes, whereupon the couple announced their engagement to the expectant press.
