ASK A QUESTION Will you marry me ?

Hi,
I want to propose to my Spanish girlfriend in Spanish but the translations coming up seem too formal or a word for word translation. Im thinking of using "Mi amor , quieres casarte conmigo ? " but is this the form of words that would be used in Spain.
muchos gracias

I would use one sentence from the above:
Me has robado el corazón, ¿te casarás conmigo'
or
No puedo vivir sin ti, ¿quieres casarte/te casarás conmigo'
Esto es muy romántico
(native from Spain)
Your sentence is perfect too

I'll bet she could care less how you say it as long as it gets said.
You are missing a question mark, however. ¿Quieres...

A woman will never agree on that!!! Nothing beats a man kneeling in front of his love, telling her he can't live without her!!

muchos gracias for all your suggestions and yes i will be asking her father. as he only speaks Spanish and I will be doing it over Skype i was thinking of ..."Senor, quiero pedir que su hija a casarme conmigo. 'tengo su permiso ?
Is this grammatical ?

Not quite. Normally we say "Quiero/Me gustaría pedirle la mano de su hija", when you want to ask for permission (it is a bit formal), and "Quiero/Me gustaría pedirle a su hija que se case conmigo" when you inform the parent that you are going to ask her to marry you.
By the way, try not to translate the typical English "to" in "ask her to marry you" as "a". It doesn't work like that. We don't have that kind of "to" in Spanish.

No, that sentece is not so correct.
Please say:
Señor (name) : Quiero pedirle la mano de su hija .
Señor: Quiero pedirle su permiso para pedirle a su hija que se case conmigo.
Quiero que me de su permiso para pedirle a su hija....
