I have been in relationships more than once where the woman made it clear (*very* clear) that if I was to ask her to marry me, she would say yes ... I have also been in a relationship where the woman made it clear she wasn't interested in getting married (again) and so I shouldn't ask (at the moment) ... but I let her know that I'd like to hear when she was ready ... she married someone else eventually.
I think if either partner says they would say "yes", then if the other partner can come up with something "wow" to make that proposal special, unique and memorable, then that is *fantastic* and if you can share it with friends so they can be happy for you as well, well, that's an optional nice thing too.
However I would *never* do it if I had even the slightest doubt that the answer would be anything other than "hell yes".
