So you’ve found the one, you bought the ring, and you are ready to pop the question. All that’s left is finding the perfect proposal idea! No need to worry, I’ve compiled a list of 5 ideas for a romantic proposal to help you out! Try putting your own creative and personal spin on one of these proposal ideas. Whether you want to plan something intimate and simple, or you’re ready to plan an extravagant and over-the-top marriage proposal, this list will get you pointed in the right direction!

It’s important to keep in mind that every couple is different, so what works for one couple may not work for the next. Proposals are not one size fits all. Some people would love a big dance flash mob proposal with tons of people watching in a popular area, while other people dread the thought of it. So make sure to keep your partner’s personality in mind while planning your proposal, make things personal and special, and I’m confident you’ll do great!

Hire a Personal Chef

This one is perfect for those couples who want something personal and intimate but also well thought out and romantic. Set up a date night at home and hire a personal chef to make your partners favorite meal. Decorate the room with lots of candles and maybe even some rose petals and play some romantic music.

Go Back to Where It All Started

Recreate your first date. Take your partner back to where your relationship started. Go to the same restaurant, watch the same movie, have a picnic at the same park. Just remember to go above and beyond to make the day extra special. Reminisce on how far you’ve come and then get ready to pop the question!

Create a Fun Scavenger Hunt

Have your partner find clues that bring them to places that are important to your love story. Have them go to where you had your first date, where you said “I love you” for the first time and any place that has significant meaning to the both of you. Add sweet notes to your partner on the clues to make it extra special.

Helicopter Ride

If your partner loves adventure and spontaneity, consider proposing while on a helicopter. Book a private helicopter ride and propose while flying over the gorgeous landscape.

Write It In The Sky

This is a grand gesture and a fun proposal idea. Hire a skywriter to pop the question or a pilot to fly an aerial banner with your personal message across the sky. This one takes some extra and meticulous planning and you have to be careful not to miss it!
