I feel like "grand gestures" are overrated. Let's say he does it, y'all get married, blah blah blah. Then what? You still have the same relationship, with the same person, forever. I feel like this should be obvious, but things aren't like they are in the movies.
Personally, I think weddings are overrated as well. Ooh, I get to go thousands of dollars into debt for one day, a fancy dress, and some hackneyed ceremony to wake up to the same person I already know I love and am committed to? I'll take a down payment on a house any day. But this is about you, and so if this really is a big deal, talk to him about it or propose yourself. Just know what you're getting into.
