3 Romantic Ways To Propose On Valentine’s Day
Many men use Valentine’s Day as the day to
propose to their loved one. After all, it is the most romantic
day of the year and it is a day you will always remember as
the special day that you decided to become one. So, what are
some romantic ways to propose? Here is a list of three ways
to propose on Valentine’s Day that will definitely thrill your
girlfriend.
1. Do it in front of her family
This all depends on how traditional your girlfriend is, of
course. If she does not get along well with her family, this
is a bad plan. But, if you know she is very close to her mother,
father, siblings, grandparents, cousins, etc., this can be
a great idea. Have them help you plan the special day.
Assign one of them to ask her to come to a family reunion
on Valentine’s Day in order to get everyone together. Inform
them of the real plan, but have them keep the secret from your
girlfriend. When she tells you about the “reunion”, complain
a bit about the “reunion” being on Valentine’s Day, but do
not over do it to the point where she decides not to go.
If that happens, remind her that family is important and even
though you would rather take her to a romantic dinner alone,
you will go to the “reunion”. If you are very traditional,
ask her parents for her hand in marriage before the party.
Let the “reunion” go on for a while, so she really believes
it is real. Designate a time when you are going to pop the
question and inform the others beforehand (so they know it
is going to happen) like when you put on a certain song or
say something in particular.
Then, drop to one knee; tell her how special she is and that
you’ve already received her parent’s permission to ask for
her hand. Tell her you love her, ask her to marry you and give
her the ring. Chances are she will say yes and the whole room
will burst into applause. Make sure in advance that you have
spoken to someone in the family about taking photos or a video
when you ask so you will have the moment preserved on film. 2. Plan a weekend getaway
If Valentine’s Day is on the weekend, plan a getaway destination
such as Las Vegas or Miami. This is a great way to propose
if she likes doing spontaneous things and loves to travel.
Don’t tell her until Friday afternoon when she gets off work.
Pick her up at the office and say she has 30 minutes to get
packed, that you have planned a weekend trip. To do this you
will need to plan several things in advance.
You will need to get either airline tickets, train tickets
(traveling by train can be very romantic), or get the driving
directions. Make sure you have reservations at a romantic hotel.
For example, if you are going to Miami, try to get a room on
the beach. If you are going to Las Vegas, try to get a suite
on the Strip at one of the nice hotels. You will have to have
the stuff you will need for the weekend packed – including
the ring. Hopefully, she will be so excited by the trip, she
will think that is what the weekend is about. But, at a great
romantic moment, like a walk on the beach or in front of the
Bellagio when the fountains are going off, propose to her.
If you are in Las Vegas, you can even get married there the
same weekend.
3. Borrow from her favorite click flick
Most women love romantic click flicks and many include a proposal.
If you know a movie she loves that has a romantic proposal
scene, reenact it with her. If My Best Friend’s Wedding is
her favorite movie, just holler out “Will you marry me?” as
she is getting in her car to drive away. It is even better
if she is getting on the train (which is how the movie version
actually goes). If An Officer and a Gentleman is her favorite
movie, walk in to her office, just pick her up in your arms,
and carry her out. As you are carrying her out, ask her to
marry you.
For this, you should probably consult her boss first. If she
loves Sex and the City and you have a dog, take the dog out
for a walk with her. When you stop to bend over and scoop the
poop, pull out the ring just like Aidan did for Carrie. If
you are not sure what her favorite chick flick is, ask. You
can always use the premise that you are thinking about buying
her the DVD copy for Valentine’s Day. Be sure to ask for a
few of her favorites to be sure to find one that has a romantic
proposal.
Proposing on Valentine’s Day is a great idea and one that
your girlfriend will surely love. If you have the right setting,
it can be very romantic and something that you both will tell
your grandchildren about one day.
