When you want to ask your love to marry you, you want the answer to be yes. You also want to ask in such a way that the proposal will be remembered fondly for the many years to come. Yet, how do you propose in such a way that it is truly special? You plan and create a marriage proposal event that they will love. 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. Doing something special will make sure you both have great memories of this special time in the future. 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 fairly easy to pull of and very romantic. 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. Then get down on one knee with the ring and ask her to marry you. Know that you created a wonderful moment to remember together. She will have the bottle and parchment to highlight this special 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. Come back and get on one knee and tell her that she lights up your life, and 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. Let her know you want to pamper 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. Once she says "yes", collect the sea shells from the proposal so they can be used either in your wedding or for future events.
--- Most women prefer getting a diamond engagement ring to symbolize their love. Yet, some really apreciate a gemstone engagement ring instead.
