Okay here's the gist of it:
Made a CAS Witch (female)
Found Fairy in game I wanted her to marry.
Got them in love (even preggers)
Where there would usually be a 'let's go steady' option, there was only 'ask to forsake witchitude' or 'ask to forsake the fae'.
Ok so witches & fairies can't marry. Whatever. Gotcha.
Have the guy forsake the fae & stalk the elixir shop until he gets the potion to become a witch.
He's a witch now.
This did solve the 'together' thing. For the longest time they lived together as 'romantic interests' & nothing more. They're at bf/gf now.
Even though now he's a witch I still just keep getting 'ask to forsake witchitude' instead of an option to propose.
Now it's even to the point where they BOTH have a desire to get married.
Any thoughts on this? Have you been able to have marriages with various supernatural beings mixed up?
(if it matters, i'm on a macbook pro OS X. also i acquired my game through amazon digital download)

I really hope this is just a bug and now how the game was set up. I mean it's a stretch to understand how you could only marry someone who's the same life-state as you are.....a huge stretch but whatever. (this is a game after all)
Not to have an option to marry when they are both witches though??!! No way.
This is the thread EA looks at.

LOL ok um...I know for sure he isn't in another relationship. I kinda 'befriended' Pip's wife then killed her off after I moved in most of the fam. I was impatient, lolz. He interacted with her ghost for awhile....it showed her as ex-wife as soon as she died. I actually just deleted her tombstone on the off chance it was having an effect........didn't help a thing.

Thanks for the link, I will be sure to post there.
*edit* I don't think that will turn out to be true. I really hope this can be fixed with a patch! If it is true I will be really annoyed. What's the point in having so many life-states if we can't have all sorts of crazy families?? lol
I'm off to test my CAS theory mentioned earlier....... I'll post results later. I'm gonna keep the basics similar. Male fairy, female witch.
I had a vampire and a werewolf I wanted to marry, and for the life of me I could NOT get the proposal option up. They are still currently boyfriend and girlfriend.
Bar was full on the relationship, they were feelin' it, but no magic happened. -____- Which is sad, because they've already had a kid together and I really want them married!
Hopefully a solution will be found soon. Good luck to you all!
Both the werewolf and witch were townies. I didn't have to use any cheats to alter their relationship or get them married.
I don't know why it's not working for you guys, but it sounds really frustrating. I hope it gets fixed!
One thing I always forget to do is turn testingcheatsenabled back to 'false' after I'm done tweaking things. If I remember right, people would have various problems crop up from that in the past. I'll try that later.
Only things is, since I have already saved & exited a few times I don't know if it will help. Seriously--I only used those cheats for two things:
-Raising relationship bar @ beginning -- and
-Tweaking some of their mood bars back up to green.
Sadface.
EDIT:
Well, good news & bad news:
Here's a direct link. My part of it is only on pg 44 & 45.

There is a chance that the OP has not spammed romantic interactions enough to have the propose options come up. Aside from that, perhaps there is a mod or cc that is interfering. There does not appear to be any bug in the vanilla game that causes difficulties in getting married, so I would think this is an issue of not using enough romantic interactions or having mods and cc in the game.

Emoting often in friendly brings up more emotes the more intense your friendship/relationship is. Once you have those options you can take control of the sim you have in question. I have done that with Rainflower Ivy and Chester Swain.
Romantic options requires the sims to go on dates, ask to leave a partner if they have one, and the more interaction with romantic, the option Will you marry me? should come up as well.
But thats how i did it, and it worked everytime. Might be another way, not sure, but this is what i do, and hope its helps out a bit.
Even though using the potion to help the frienship bar works alot, still getting to know the other sim, traits, everything is usually triggers it off too.
