The wedding proposal is the first step towards a wonderful and interesting journey, let’s find out how best to start.
As Christmas is approaching, we thought we would talk about marriage proposals.
If you’re wondering why we’re talking about it now, it’s because Christmas is a time of year when marriage proposals are aplenty.
Many people choose this time of year to organise an atmospheric and romantic wedding proposal.
Thus, under the Christmas tree comes, a beautiful engagement ring.
We therefore thought we would warn brides and grooms about what might happen and give some tips to the bride and groom-to-be on how to organize a well-done wedding proposal.
How to organize a wedding proposal
Here’s the thing: for a marriage proposal that really works, you need to be organised.
Having ascertained what the bride prefers, we move on to the organizational part:
- when to propose.
- where to do the marriage proposal.
Having chosen these two aspects, comes the creative part: in other words, how to make a marriage proposal.
One must not forget, then, the engagement ring.
You will probably find it difficult to find a precise date for the proposal unless you are already thinking about Christmas.
If you want to organise something highly scenic, or better still a surprise, you will, however, have to make an effort to find the right time.
The same applies if you intend to propose on a specific date that is particularly evocative for you.
In these cases, you will have to organise everything down to the last detail so that everything goes perfectly.
Alternatively, you may also just have to wait for the right moment: when the time comes, you should still be ready with the engagement ring and the declaration.

Where to propose
The location of the marriage proposal ties in with the talk about the right time.
If you are planning a surprise, organised down to the last detail, then you will also have to think about where to propose.
The place can be a beach, if you love the sea, or in the mountains, if you prefer hiking.
It can be a venue that is dear to you, such as the first place where you met; or a new venue, such as on a trip.
It may be in front of the Christmas tree in your home.
Some people choose to make a romantic marriage proposal after a candlelit dinner.
If you prefer to wait for the best moment, then all you have to do is be ready with the engagement ring and the declaration.
Whether you want to build a real event or wait for the right moment, be sure to choose the right ring and make your declaration from the heart (and above all, be convincing).
Organizing a trip abroad for the marriage proposal
If you are a traveller and seeing new venues is your passion, then you can think about organising your proposal on the other side of the world.
At this point, the trip becomes the set and you can propose at a time that suits you.
The ring you have chosen for her is always in your pocket and the right moment will come.
How to propose
We have long since abandoned the old rituals of social rules and etiquette.
If I can give you some advice though…kneeling always has a certain effect, so if I were you, I wouldn’t rule it out.
This moment is the first step towards an adventure that will last a lifetime (if he says yes), enjoy it and be yourself.
Expert’s advice for marriage proposal
Even just talking about the marriage proposal gets me excited, I’m the one who even when she sees them in movies my eyes fill with tears….
But I want to give you some practical and useful tips to make everything as perfect as possible.
First of all, know that there are professionals such as event planners who can help you organize this event without mistakes and without stress (except for having to take this very important step).
If creating a special setting is one of your priorities, then hire a designer who will realise your idea.
Don’t forget the flowers, they may seem obvious but believe me they are always an added value.
Hire a professional photographer; you don’t know how valuable this advice is!!! Many people think it is not necessary and ask a friend to take a photo of the fateful moment…mmmm…this is not a good idea!
If you like to collect stills of important moments in your life, this is one of those moments you will love to look back on.
A professional photographer will capture the emotion of that moment.
Check the weather, if you decide to organize your proposal outdoors always check the weather, so if it is the case, you can move the date or consider a plan B indoors in case of rain.
Wedding proposal at Christmas
As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, the Christmas period lends itself very well to wedding proposals.
The magical atmosphere, the lights, that festive air… it makes this moment very very special.
In case you are planning to ask your girlfriend or boyfriend to marry her or him during this period…make it truly spectacular!
The settings can be as varied as a large square in a famous city in front of a huge Christmas tree, at home in front of your fireplace or even during a family reunion….
The moment is already magical, its up to you to make it unforgettable.
