What's the most romantic thing you've ever experienced?

Hummm I've got quite a few things to choose from but I think the most romantic and surprising thing my DH ever did was leave Roses everywhere I went.
One morning I woke up (DH was at work) and there was a single red rose on the pillow beside me with a string that said I Love you.
When I went into the bathroom there was another single red rose with I love you.
There was one in the car on my way to work.
There was one sitting on my desk at work.
When I got off there was another one in my car.
When I got home there was one on the bar.
and then there was a vace with 6 more in our bedroom.
This was for no specific reason at all.

My boyfriend is quite the romantic...but my favorite moment was 5 years ago for my sweet 16...(it's more sweet than romantic, as it happened when I had just turned 16...but still! lol)
I read my little speech and called him up to light the 16th candle with me. So, he came up, we lit it, and he went to sit down. I turned and started to read the next speech and I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around and hes standing there holding a little box with a double-heart promise ring with 6 little diamonds in it, and our initials engraved on it. I started crying those happy-tears and could barely make it through my next speech!
More recently, I was sick on Valentine's day, and taking a nap. He laid out a dress for me and asked me to put it on, I said OK, did, and fell back asleep. I woke up to a knock on his bedroom door. I went and opened it and saw a candle, a rose, and a note. The note said "Come downstairs, I love you..." I went down to find another candle and rose leading me to the kitchen, where he had cooked me a chicken parm dinner and it was completely lit by candles and surrounded by roses. He even had wine glasses filled with juice (we were both Straight Edge at the time-no alcohal!). It was so sweet and made me so happy, even though I felt like crud!

DH isn't the romantic type. It just isn't in him. He is a wonderful man and loves me dearly. He just isn't creative enough to come up with things like that. Too much of a technical mind.

I posted this here in October, but since you asked I thought I would post it again.
After 17 years of marriage my DH who is normally very loving, but not creative and romantic surprised me on our anniversary. We were at our community talent show and the final act was this really great barbershop quartet. After singing one of their songs they asked the audience for a volunteer, tons of people raised their hand, but the gentleman announced my name and asked me to come to the stage. After being shocked at hearing my name (and knowing I can't sing) I was politely declining when the master of ceremonies takes my elbow and over my protests propels me to the stage. Once on stage they sat me in a tall barstool-type chair and called for another volunteer....imagine my surprise when it was my DH coming to the stage and them handing him a microphone. At this point I think DH is going to sing, but he gets on one knee and tells the audience, "I know this is a talent show, but I wanted to share that this is our anniversary and although it doesn't take talent loving this woman I have for the past 17 years." Then he turns and brings out from off stage a huge bouquet of long-stem roses that were simply beautiful. As what he is doing is finally sinking in (and keep in mind I am not one used to being in the spotlight) the barbershop quartet starts singing "Let Me Call You Sweetheart". I am not sure what prompted DH to do this, but I sure feel lucky to have such a great guy!
He still is pretty special, but that night really took the cake.

My husband is very romantic. Here's a few that come to mind:
--This happened while we were dating and both worked at the same company. I got up from my cubical to use the restroom. When I came back, there was a package on my desk! I tore it open.....inside was a summer dress I had been eyeing at the mall a few days earlier!
--One Valentine's day I was out running errands while my husband, (then Fiancee') was at home. As I walked up to our front door, there was a tiny vase with one single rose. After I unlocked the door and stepped inside, I saw 2 dozen red roses in a bigger vase on the dinning table!
--We just got back from our honeymoon at Disney World in December. At the Wilderness Lodge our housekeeper made us towel animals everyday. We ran into our housekeeper on our last day, and she suggested that we take the animals home with us. So we did.
Here's the romantic part: Every morning, well, almost every morning my husband puts a towel animal on his pillow when he gets ready to start his morning. So I always wake up seeing the towel animal and am reminded of this wonderful guy I married!
Too many to list! Like for Valentine's day this year, he bought a two toned two heart ring from Helzbergs. Plus a teddy bear, of course. (I accidently came into the room when he was situating the bear and ring on the bed. So I kinda ruined my own surprise. Sorry babe!)

Tiggerlover, you have me in tears! What a lovely story. All of them are. 
We're a romantic family. I love fresh flowers, so I buy them every Friday for my sweetie, and he buys them for me on ocassion as well. The most romantic thing he has ever done for me probably would have to be the time he gave me a full pedicure. Not many men are going to be willing to wash and put lotion on your feet and paint your toenails. I consider myself blessed.
This is kind of an every day sort of thing, but I've always loved it about my husband. For a wedding gift we got this bill sorter thing that has a little chalkboard on it. We never really used it for the bill sorter, but we do use the chalkboard. Every day before DH goes to work (or goes to bed, depending on what shift he is on) he writes me a note on the chalkboard. Sometimes its just I Love You, sometimes he is a little more creative. Today's message was "Looking Good!" (in reference to a change I made in our kitchen last night) and "Have fun on your bikes today!" to the boys because they are going on a bike trip for spring break today. I love waking up and going downstairs to see what he has written on the chalkboard every day.

My DH isn't exactly Mr Romance so when he does something it is quite a big deal. On our wedding day we had a live band playing. We both have graduate music degrees and married after we had finished our education so we had many musician friends. The band was made up of our friends who were in the wedding party. DH played bass, the best man played the drums, the ushers were on guitar, keyboards and vocals and the bridesmaids and I were on backing vocals. Anyway DH surprised me by singing a song for me, he sang Wonderful tonight. It was quite a big deal as DH isn't really a singer but it was so nice. I'm not sure if there was a dry eye in the room!!
The other romantic thing he did was on our 5th anniversary at WDW he had bought me the ear rings, bracelet and necklace that matched by engagement ring. I didn't think he had even paid attention to what my engagement ring looked like!! He gave me them after our day at Discovery Cove swimming with the dolphins.
He does sometimes bring flowers home for me if we have both been working late or busy with work and haven't been able to spend much time together.

From the time we were engaged (early March) until we married in October I always had a live rose from DH. Just a little token to remind me of him.
His romantic things are little but mean a lot to me. Like picking flowers from the garden (lilly of the valley), roses, etc. and putting them in a little bud vase on my dresser. Sending me silly little pm's that only mean something to the two of us. Just little daily things like that. Not big romantic gestures, but things that show he loves me.

When we were dating, I worked at a overnight summer camp for two weeks. My husband sent a balloon arrangement to the mess hall one night at dinner.
Another of my favorites was when I was expecting our first child. I was eight months pregnant and he had to work on Christmas day, 12 hour shift, so it was just me and the dog. He had left before I woke up that morning and I was feeling pretty low. Came down that morning to find a beautiful rocking chair waiting for me.

The things that stand out in my mind are more sweet, thoughtful things he has done. When I had a C-section with my second child, he would get up in the middle of the night to change my son, wrap him up, then bring him to me so i could nurse him. He did this for many weeks. I still remember how they sounded 'talking' quietly to each other while he changed him. Then when we had two small children and I was studying for my PT license, he would shoo me out of the kitchen after dinner so I could study without interruption for an hour or two. He cleaned the kitchen and played with the boys. He did this for months. I feel that license is just as much his as mine, lol. Once when I was in the grocery store a terrible rain storm came by our area, I turned to find him there...he wanted to help with the bags and brought an umbrella! I think it is the small, daily kindnesses that I love the most, and that is romantic to me!
