Seven Most Romantic Proposal Ideas

You’ve found the love of your life—the hard part’s over.
Now comes the proposal. It’s unfortunate, but many women
feel their proposals were not as romantic as they’d hoped.
Don’t make the same mistake. Here are seven ideas for
giving your girlfriend a proposal that lives up to her
dreams.

The Traditional Proposal. Take your girlfriend to the spot
where you first met or had your first date. Start a
conversation about that night. Talk about how you felt
when you first saw her; how nervous you were; or how
beautiful she looked. Have the ring in your pocket and
wait for the right moment. This is sure to be a beautiful,
heartfelt proposal she’ll remember for the rest of her
life.

The Outdoor Proposal. Incorporate nature for a romantic
proposal idea. Take your girlfriend for a walk in a
beautiful spot. Have a picnic area prepared, complete with
roses and champagne. Or, if the beach is more your style,
write your proposal out in the sand. Take your girlfriend
for a walk on the beach—right to where you’ve written your
proposal. Hopefully, she’ll write back “yes.”

The Jet-Set Proposal. Take your girlfriend on a romantic
vacation. Go to the Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal, the Great
Pyramid—anywhere romantic and atmospheric. Propose to your
girlfriend as the sun sets in this memorable place. If it
goes well, you’ll be coming back here for wedding
anniversary trips for years to come.

The Silly Proposal. Rewrite the lyrics to your
girlfriend’s favorite love song into a custom-written
proposal song. Go to a karaoke bar, have a few drinks, and
grab the microphone. Sing your proposal song as though
you’re taking it seriously, addressing only her. Or make
it a bit more silly—depending on her personality and your
comfort level.

The High-Tech Proposal. Design a website around your
proposal. Include photographs of your relationship, your
blog about planning the proposal, and pictures from your
last vacation together or romantic date. While browsing
the Internet with your girlfriend, guide her to this site.
Have the ring near at hand—along with flowers or a bottle
of champagne.

The Delicious Proposal. Invite your girlfriend over for a
delicious home-cooked meal. Light candles, play music, and
generally make your home a romantic haven. Put the ring in
a glass of champagne or wine, or on top of an ornate mousse
dessert. Make sure it’s in an obvious place, so she’ll see
it before she takes a bite. The secret is to deliver the
ring at the end of a memorable meal, so that she gets the
whole romantic experience as the proposal.

The Cutest Proposal. Try this only if your girlfriend is
an animal lover who’s been considering getting a new pet.
Buy a puppy or kitten for your girlfriend. Wrap a ribbon
around its neck with the ring dangling from a bow.
Surprise your girlfriend with both, and she’s sure to be
thrilled.

You’ll only get one chance to propose to your girlfriend.
Put some time, planning, and creativity into your proposal,
and it’s sure to be one of the most romantic moments in her
life—and yours.
