Unforgettable Proposals: Creative Ways to Pop the Question

You’ve found the one. Great. The one you want to get hitched with and spend the rest of your life in eternal bliss. But before you do that, you need to have a wedding — a tall order. There are friends to invite, food to order, and an event venue to find. If only there were a website with a list of immaculate blogs that could guide you… 

Wedding websites with witty, wonderful, and wise blogs about their awesome services aside, what you really need to do is to plan out your proposal. Luckily for you, our wedding experts have curated a list of some of the most romantic, creative, and unique proposals for your dream proposal to your future fiancée. 

Now by dream proposal, we do not mean infiltrating someone’s dream like in Inception and proposing to them, as this has been shown to be generally ineffective, but instead, we have accumulated some of the most ethereal, marvelous, and rarefied proposals apropos of proposing into one cloud of internet bliss for you. 

With this out of the way, let’s skydive right into the wonderful world of wedding proposals. Follow these tips, make sure the general vibe of your partner is good, and don’t wear a gorilla mask, and your proposal should be perfect. 

Heaven in a Hot Air Balloon: Proposal from On High 

A great place, if you have the derring-do, to propose is in a hot air balloon. The sights are scenic, the wind whispers winsomely, and hopefully, the only thing full of hot air is the balloon.  

Think about it — if you propose in a hot air balloon, that little spot up there, that cube of air, is you and your fiancée’s unique spot. You have your own moment, your own spatial location, and your own memory just to share between the two of you as you slowly meander down from the heavens and come down to earth again. 

The Bliss of a Proposal on the Beach 

Okay, so maybe a hot air balloon proposal isn’t your style, but you still want to get married somewhere liminal and scenic. How about the beach? You can walk along and watch the waves wash over the sandy shores while the sun sets softly and sweetly over the honey-colored horizon. When you’re both overwhelmed by the beauty of it all, kneel down and ask.  

This kind of proposal is a lot like the hot air balloon in that in both of them you’re in a space that is on the border between the earth and another world entirely, that time outer space, this time the ocean, and in that both could possibly involve birds, but are both ultimately totally different in both affordability and feel. Both are suitable options, but what if you don’t want either? 

Proposing at Your Favorite Restaurant 

So maybe you don’t like nature. Fair enough. Have you considered proposing at your and your future fiancée’s favorite restaurant? There, you can enjoy a delicious meal and each other’s company. We recommend that you contact the restaurant and ask them beforehand what their policy is on wedding proposals. Chances are they’ll say ‘yes,’ and you might even be able to score some champagne on the house. 

Keeping Your Wedding Proposal Simple 

Okay, so maybe none of these options worked for you. Maybe you have a fear of heights, and your acrophobia means you’ll never set foot in a hot air balloon. Maybe the last time you went to the beach, you got stung by a jellyfish.  Maybe you think a restaurant is too public, and you want a private proposal to fit your personality. Then, where should you pop the question? 

Anywhere, with the obvious exceptions included. Why not at home, where you and your partner feel safest? While hiking through nature? Or at a park where you went on one of your first dates? The options are infinite. The key is you just have to sit down and think of a place or moment that is specific and special to both of you, go there, and ask. 

This is probably one of the best possible proposals we could propose, because it’s special and unique to you, just like your relationship. And sometimes that’s more unforgettable than any fancy photogenic fantasies. 

We Propose that You Propose 

Proposing is a big deal. The most important step before proposing involves making sure that you and your partner are on the same page. If you are, then you need to get to actually popping the question.  

We’ve provided you with a list of memorable ways to propose, and if you really want to propose with the pose of a pro, we propose you take any of these proposed proposals and propose to the love of your life.  

And once you’ve got that out of the way, we have another proposal for you: come get married at Pleasantdale Chateau, where dreams come true. And not the weird kind of dreams where everyone has a duck head and eats millet, but the kinds which harbor your deepest desires and most personal fantasies, sequestered secretly away until the day of your wedding, where they can be brought forth in full force, all with the help from a certain very Pleasant Chateau.
