The Ultimate Proposal Checklist
If you’re planning to get on one knee in front of your significant other, make sure you brace yourself and have a solid plan because preparation is key before proposing to them.
You might feel afraid and nervous, but don’t worry too much because we have your back! And of course, it won’t be as serious as a business proposal. Following this ultimate proposal checklist to conduct your memorable moment.
Get the Family’s Approval
To make you feel more at ease, you have to win her family first. You can make an appointment to see their parents and ask for their permission and approval. Once you have them on board, you can also ask for more advice before proposing.
Choose a Perfect Ring
A ring is a big deal when proposing. Your future spouse may already have had a dream ring since they were a kid. That’s why getting a perfect one is key for them to say yes.
If you haven’t figured out yet what kind of ring they like, seek help from their mother, relative, or best friend who is trustworthy. Just in case you need our recommendation, a diamond ring can never go wrong.
Scout Your Location
To make everything emotional and memorable, location can play a big role. There are so many options to choose from.
We recommend you go to their favorite place or a place that holds a memory for both of you.
For example, at their favorite beach or at a park where you had your first date.
Make a Plan for the Ring at Home
While making your way to the proposal spot, make sure your ring is safe. To avoid them accidentally finding the ring at your house, we recommend you store it somewhere else. For example, you can store it at your parent’s or friend’s house.
Make a Plan for the Ring at the Venue
We always recommend you to go for the classic way, getting down on one knee, and popping the question while you open the ring box.
To make this moment run flawlessly, you can spend a bit more on a slim engagement ring box to replace the cheap, clunky one that you get for free.
Clear Her Calendar
Make sure they are available on a date you pick. It’s a bit tricky because you have to give a solid reason to ask them out at the chosen time. Of course, without them knowing it is going to be a big night.
Don’t Forget to Celebrate
After the long and nerve-wracking preparation, you have to enjoy the journey of putting the ring on your finger. You know they will say “yes” so you can relax and relish the moment of spending the rest of your life with them.
