Whenever someone comments on her ring or sees the two of you together, they’ll all ask the same question. It’s a story that will be told over and over again. Because of that, you should find romantic ways to propose instead of boring, overused proposals.
When a guy gets down on one knee, women want it to be personal. They want it to be something special between the two of you. Sure, you could just whip out a ring in your living room while she’s watching TV, but that’s not romantic. It’s also not exciting or story-worthy.
You want to make sure to propose in a way she will love. You want her to remember that day forever and truly feel how much you love her. That means you need romantic ways to propose.
If you’re not the creative type, we’re here to help. These are the most romantic ways to propose to your girlfriend and make her your fiancée. Just remember to cater your proposal to her wants and needs instead of just blindly choosing a way to do it.
# A public spectacleNot all women want to be proposed to in public. Be sure you know where your woman stands before you do something like this. However, if she does like that sort of thing, it’s one of the more romantic ways to propose.
You can do this almost anywhere. Make sure the entire evening is filled with romance and then when she least expects it, get down on one knee with everyone watching and confess your love. Showing how much you care in front of everyone is really romantic.
# A weekend getaway proposalTake a weekend off of work and chores and sweep her away to a romantic weekend. Pamper her while you’re away by giving her massages, taking her to a favorite restaurant that’s usually too far away, and make her feel amazing. Then, at the end of the weekend, get down on one knee and she’ll never forget it.
# Vacation destinationInstead of just a weekend away, take a week or two and treat her to an incredible vacation. Take her somewhere she’s always wanted to go and make sure she knows the entire time how much you love her.
Take a walk on the beach and bring the ring. She’ll be surprised and it’ll be more than romantic enough.
# A dinner night at homeSometimes the most romantic ways to propose are the simplest. You don’t have to spend a fortune or shower her with expensive gifts to make her feel loved. She might not even want that. Instead, let her come home to an entire meal prepared by you with candles, dessert, and of course, a ring.
# A close friends and family dinnerIf you want to make your proposal less private, but aren’t sure about doing it in public with a bunch of strangers, invite your closest friends and family to a small get together.
Have a party to celebrate nothing in particular and then get down on one knee. If she’s really close with the people in her life, she may love having them around for the big day.
# A thoughtful homemade giftNot all gifts have to be really lavish and costly. You can make a gift instead if you’re the creative type. Paint her something. Write and play her a song on guitar. You can even build her something cute that she’ll love. While she’s enjoying it, get down on one knee and express how much you wish to always make her gifts forever.
# Relive your first few dates
You can just do the first date or you can do a few of them. You can spend an entire day taking her to the first three places you ever had dates. Then at the last place, tell her those were the most important days of your life, and this will be too. She will be surprised and she’ll love it.
# Catch the proposal on cameraIn order to ensure that your woman never forgets the proposal, get it on camera! There are plenty of people you can hire to catch the special moment. No matter how you do it, having it recorded forever will be majorly special. This is especially true since many people never have a video of the big day. She can show it to everyone who asks.
