How did people do this – swallow all their fears and trust someone else so implicitly with every imperfection and fear they had – with less than the absolute commitment that Edward had given me? If it weren’t Edward out there, if I didn’t know in every cell of my body that he loved me as much as I loved him – unconditionally and irrevocably and, to be honest, irrationally – I’d never be able to get up off this floor.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.83




i'm not sure if its the most romantic scene in the books..i just think it's so beautiful that i have to quote it..the depth of her trust for him is amazing. *sigh*

I knew it was working then, so I concentrated even harder, dredging up specific memories I’d saved for this moment, letting them flood my mind, and hopefully his as well. Some of the memories were not clear – dim human memories, seen through weak eyes and heard through weak ears: the first time I’d seen his face… the way it felt when he’d held me in the meadow… the sound of his voice through the darkness of my faltering consciousness when he’d saved me from James… his face as he waited under a canopy of flowers to marry me… every precious moment from the island… his cold hands touching our baby through my skin… And the sharp memories, perfectly recalled: his face when I’d opened my eyes to my new life, to the endless dawn of immortality… that first kiss… that first night…

You don't quite remember how romantic this scene is till you re-read it
I love it!

All I really saw was Edwards face; it filled my vision and overwhelmed my mind. His eyes were a buttery, burning gold; his perfect face was almost severe with the depth of his emotion. And then as he met my awed gaze, he broke into a breathtaking smile of exultation.
Suddenly, it was only the pressure of Charlie's hand on mine, that kept me sprinting headlong down the aisle.

--Breaking Dawn, Chapter 3 (Big Day), pg 48

Bella had been dreading this day (her wedding day)for so long, and then as she looked into Edward's eyes as she walked down the aisle, looked at his perfection, and his breathtaking smile, nothing but Edward mattered anymore. I love how suddenly, Bella realises, she's doing the right thing, Edward is her life.

I was just thinking about it and I remembered a scene I really liked. Sorry if someone's already mentioned it but I didn't really have the time (or patience) to go through all the posts.

Anyways, I don't have the book with me right now (gasp) but it's the scene when Edward gives Bella the helmet and jacket for her motorcycle. A little while later, he says "Actually, you look sexy" I loved that part!

Probably not romantic, but worth mentioning =)

Me too. 's so imaginative the way she wrote "The 'lion' fell in 'love' with the 'lamb'..." It's so...sensational (Sorry for my lack of adjectives). You can really see the notion of the context she's trying to convey.
