Love is in the Air – Romantic Ways to Propose
By: Gayla Baer
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, more guys are contemplating popping the question to the special woman in their life.
The proposal is important, but presentation is everything! Make it an experience she’ll never forget.
Some of the most romantic ways to propose are:
- Recreate the first date that you went on with them. Not only will this bring back lots of happy memories of that very special day but will also get them in the right mood when you do finally propose.
- Buy a charm bracelet – Not just any charm bracelet though, instead of the usual little charms on it arrange to have the words “Marry Me” spelled out instead.
- Take her on one of the most romantic cruises she could dream of. A beautiful sunset could set the perfect stage for a memorable proposal.
- Get a single red rose and gently place the ring inside its petals. Carefully handing it to her. When she moves towards the rose to smell it, she will see the ring and be ready to say “yes” to your proposal.
Do you have a romantic proposal story to share? We’d love to hear it!

I love this post. My favorite (and very original) is the charm bracelet idea. she’ll never see it coming…Great idea.
Well, it wasn’t a proposal, but I did use a unique way to give my wife an anniversary ring one year. It just so happened that she was on a Cracker Jacks kick that year. I have no idea why, but she loved those things. It was our anniversary and we had planned on going out to dinner, but it was a late reservation. We ate an early lunch and about 4pm she was saying she was hungry and wanted something small to eat. Keep in mind I purposely made the reservations late and made her eat lunch early. I also had taken a box of Cracker Jacks and very carefully opened it, and then put the ring in the box and sealed it back up. It looked very much like it had never been opened. Anyways I had put the box of Cracker Jacks on the counter praying she would open it that day. When she said she was hungry I said why don’t you eat those Cracker Jacks. To which she said “good idea”. She opened the box and ate a few kernels of caramel corn and then I could see her digging for the prize. When she pulled the ring out the look on her face was priceless. She had no idea and she didn’t know what to say. I could see she was trying to figure out if the ring was real or just a really nice fake prize. Then she looked at me because she wanted to ask me about the “prize” she had found. I was smiling when she looked at me and then I said Happy Anniversary…
It was without a doubt the best Cracker Jacks prize she’d ever gotten
And the most expensive box of Cracker Jacks I’ve ever seen!

It’s a little dorky, but if that’s how you roll… You could make a website with your proposal on it and send her the link.
If you wanted to make it fancy, make a series of websites, and make it like a game. She visits the first site, answers a basic question, and that takes her to another page. That page asks her another question, etc., until she lands on the proposal page.
Or you could make a video proposal, upload it on YouTube, and send her the link to the YouTube video.

What’s wrong with doing it drunkenly down the pub? I don’t know, the youth of today…..!
I decided to make it during a trip to Venice. This romantic city, which is an excellent background for the get propose.
The first date one really requires that you didn’t end up going somewhere horrible on your first date!
What lovely ideas! Thanks for sharing… I like hearing about romantic proposals.
