Movies like Bashful Buddies (1936)

Pals Herman and Pat, with diamond rings in hand, are all set to make marriage proposals. Pat is bashful, however, so Herman broaches the subject to Pat's girl. The girl's parents think Herman is the suitor, and invite him to dinner. Meanwhile, Herman's own prospective in-laws are hosting a dinner, too, so Herman and Pat dash from one dining room to the other, trying to straighten things out.
