Marriage Proposal Tips

Valentine's Day will be here in a few short days, a time to tell your loved ones that you love and appreciate them.  Roughly 10% of proposals that happen every year happen on Valentine's Day.  In preparation to a Valentine's Day proposal, we want to share some proposal tips for you (or your boyfriend).

♥ If you have traditional families, ask for her hand in marriage from her father and family before proposing.  You can even include the family in the event.


♥ If you are planning a public proposal, make sure you feel confident that she will say yes before you pop the question.  


♥ Make the proposal about the two of you as a couple.  If you are a sports fan, but she isn't, don't bring her to the big game to propose.  Bring in memories from your times together: first date, concerts, vacations, passions, restaurants, etc.


♥ Find common interests and passions to incorporate into the proposal.  Are you adventurous, creative, high-tech, beach or mountain lovers, happy at home, etc.? 


♥ Do your homework beforehand.  Do you know her ring size? Will she be available for the big event?


♥ If you are including food within your surprise proposal, make sure it doesn't distract from the beauty of the ring.  You don't want to put the ring in a chocolate cupcake just to have brown cake all over the diamond.  Also be sure not to have it so hidden that it chances being swallowed.  


♥ Don't be afraid to think outside the common proposal ideas, make it unique to you.
