Proposals are often intimate moments which take weeks or even months of planning.
Not everyone likes for it to happen in public, while others prefer to keep it fairly subtle.
Now one man has been left baffled as to why his brother is annoyed at him for popping the question at his wedding.
The anonymous fella, from the US, took to Reddit to explain how his brother's new wife was left raging after his gesture.
He said: "We were alone, no one was even paying any attention to us at all because there were 100 people there.
"I just asked her 'so, beach at sunset… will you marry me?
"She said yes, we had a good laugh, took a selfie together, and slowly walked back to the site of the reception."
The man went on to say that while he hadn't revealed the news to anyone at the wedding, it soon got out.
He added: "Two days ago, my girlfriend posted that selfie on her social media and tagged me.
"She wrote a caption 'finally marrying the love of my life, and a sunset beach proposal!'
"Now everyone who knows us knew it was a sarcastic caption and knew it was more a joking post than anything else."
Awkwardly the man's brother and his new wife called up to explain how upset they were at the post.
He continued: "My sister-in-law said we ridiculed their wedding with our post.
"While my brother said I'm an a****** for proposing at someone else's wedding."
It wasn't long until people on Reddit shared their opinions on the matter.
One said: "I mean, of all the ways to propose at someone else's wedding, this is probably the least tacky.
"Still, you'd think that in 10 years together, you could've found a different occasion. Soft YTA."

However others didn't see anything wrong with it.
A Reddit user wrote: "I was ready to say you're the a**hole but you didn't propose in front of everybody.
"You didn't announced it at the reception and you waited two days to post it so NTA.
"SIL (sister-in-law) is the one who is ridiculous here."
A third said: "Didn't steal the spotlight. Off on your own. Ridiculing their wedding? What does that even mean? NTA and congrats!"
