Going to pop the question and don’t know how? Want something special but not sure what to choose? Let’s dive deep into all the options and ideas to figure out how you should propose!
Figure Out What Your Partner Would Love
Would they cringe at your doing it in public? Would they prefer a big gesture? Would they love an intimate proposal with just two of you at home? Would they like you to have a ring or would they prefer to choose their own? Would they prefer being prosed somewhere on a holiday or at home, with all the family by your side?
The best proposal is guessing and understanding what your half wants and not just going super bold with much effort – sometimes it’s not what they want. Find out what your love would like and you won’t go wrong with it.
Make It Personal
Make it authentic and personal, include things they love or that you like to do together, rather than something that doesn’t seem natural for you two. Don’t make the proposal about you – you might like football but it doesn’t mean your other half wants to be proposed to at an Arsenal match.

Choose A Right Ring
Think about the ring, your other half should love it a lot as it can be worn for a long time and after the wedding, too. Would they prefer a vintage-inspired or a more modern one? What shape, what precious stone? If you can’t decide or if you aren’t sure that your half will love the ring, just skip this idea and propose with no ring, then you can just go to the shop and buy one.

More Tips On Proposals
Think about the location, whether you are at home or on holiday – the place should be special! Do a research to find out the best time to visit it. Think about after the proposal, have a plan for a romantic meal, swanky drinks, a weekend getaway or seeing friends and family to celebrate.
Nudge your other half to dress appropriately for the setting or activity – you don’t want to feel under or over-dressed at your own proposal.
Be flexible, change your plans if you need to, whether that means, postponing for another day because your other half is sick, making a weather-proof plan, or proposing early if the right moment arises.
Don’t tell many people in advance, your other half will probably want to share the news themselves, it’s best if everyone isn’t in on it.
