You may be shocked to find out that better than 3/4 of women today are disappointed in the proposal they get, and you don’t want to disappoint her when you are asking her to spend the rest of life with you. Creating a special moment ensures that you both have wonderful memories of this precious time for years to come. Need a bit of help? Well, here are some great proposal ideas to consider using. Use them and you are pretty much guaranteed an emphatic “YES” from the love of your life.

Message in a Bottle Proposal

If you are looking for romantic and unique proposal ideas, a message in a bottle proposal is a wonderful idea to try. It’s simple, romantic and fun.

Preparation: Before you go get an antique bottle, use some parchment paper, and write your proposal on it (make sure you are original and romantic with the wording). Bury the bottle in the sand in an easy to locate spot.

Invite your love to go on a walk along the beach with you. Assuming all the preparation has been done, go walk with your love. Notice the bottle top sticking up and have her help you dig it up. Let her open the bottle and read your proposal. Romantically request her hand in marriage while you are kneeling on one knee with a ring in your hand. She’ll remember the moment forever, and she’ll have the bottle and proposal on parchment to keep as a memory of this important day in your lives.

Evening Picnic Dinner Proposal

Another of the many great proposal ideas out there is an evening picnic dinner proposal.

Preparation: Get a small generator and a lot of mini white lights. Find a beautiful and remote spot for a picnic, such as a private spot on the beach or a nice area in the mountains. Set up the generator and decorate it with all the white lights. Set up a small table and chairs, and have it ready for a picnic dinner.

Take her out to the dinner spot around sunset, sit her down at the table, and have a nice dinner and wine for her to eat. As the sun goes down, tell her you have a surprise for her. Go turn on the generator and let all the lights come on and dazzle her. It will take her breath away. Go to her and kneel with one knee and explain to her that she is the light in your world. Lovingly ask her to marry you.

Relaxing Getaway Proposal

More than likely your girlfriend is a busy woman. She could use a relaxing getaway and this is one of many great proposal ideas as well.

Preparation: decide on a place to go. Choose enjoyable activities that reduce stress and enable relaxation. (You will want to do this after you know she has a particular day off.)

Take her away for a day. Arrange for her to have a day off work, surprise her, and whisk her away. Make sure she does absolutely nothing. Take her to a nice resort or hotel. Let her enjoy the day in the pool, sipping nice drinks, and feed her a delicious dinner. Bring her to the hot tub in the evening to relax. When she is relaxed and you see the stress start slipping away, get on one knee and ask her to marry you. Inform her that you would enjoy pampering her for the rest of your lives.

Seashell Proposal

If you live near the beach, the seashell proposal is one of the best proposal ideas to consider.

Preparation: a bucket for shells; a beach blanket or towel. If the beach doesn’t have many shells, come prepared with lots of shells already in the bucket.

As you take a walk on the beach, pick up a lot of seashells along the way. Have her help you pick out beautiful shells to place in your bucket. Once you have a lot of shells, have her sit down on a blanket. Take the shells and write out your proposal. When you are done, get her and bring her to see your work. As she sees what you have written, get down and propose, then give her the ring. Take a camera to get a picture of the seashell proposal so you can remember it. Gather up the shells again after she says “yes,” and you can use the shells in your wedding or keep them to remember the special day by.

This is a very stressful time for the person who is proposing and it’s good to do a lot of research on proposal ideas.  The professionals at Romance Travel Concierge have put a lot of thought and had a lot of experience dealing with marriage proposals.  Let them sit down with you and guide you through the hectic process from buying the ring all the way to when she says yes.

You don’t want to propose marriage while watching T.V. on Tuesday night.  It is a wonderful thing to a woman when she knows that a lot of thought and hard work was put into creating the perfect proposal that is just for her. 

Think about taking a dream vacation to an exotic destination like Jamaica and while you sip Mai Tai’s on the beach you pull out a ring and pop the question.  A romantic destination proposal is one that she will never forget.

Maybe you want friends and family to be close by to celebrate with you when it’s done.  Romance Travel Concierge can arrange something closer to home for you, as well.  If you live in Oklahoma or California, they can arrange a candlelit dinner, 5 star hotel and a party for everyone.  The possibilities are endless but don’t try to do it all on your own.

Having a team of professional wedding proposal planners on your side is a huge benefit.  You probably have a lot of ideas running through your head on how to make this the perfect moment, but think how great it would be to have people who have been through this before on your side brainstorming with you.
