💡 Expert Proposal Tips

✅ Do's:

  • Make it Personal: Choose location meaningful to your relationship
  • Consider Their Preferences: Public vs private, simple vs elaborate
  • Time it Right: Golden hour (sunset) provides best lighting & romance
  • Have Backup Plan: Weather, crowds, or other issues may arise
  • Practice Your Words: Know what you'll say but stay flexible
  • Involve Loved Ones: If they'd appreciate family/friends present

❌ Don'ts:

  • Don't Surprise with Ring Style: Ensure they'll love the ring (subtle hints or shopping together)
  • Don't Propose on Major Holidays: Valentine's, Christmas feel cliché; choose unique date
  • Don't Make it Too Public: Unless you're certain they want audience
  • Don't Rush: Take time to plan; rushed proposals feel less special
  • Don't Forget the Ring: Sounds obvious but happens! Double-check before leaving
