The Wedding Proposal

The Proposal 

The wedding proposal, its that one event of our lives that we hope to be one of the most perfect and memorable days that we would experience. Its where one proposes and asks for another person's hand in "marriage". Usually we would hope this is something that would only occur once in our lives. Its that one day that marks the beginning of a new chapter in our lives. The wedding proposal marks the initiation of an engagement between two people, providing the person who is being proposed to "Accepts". Traditionally, the guy is the one that usually asks for the girl's hand in marriage, but as time progresses we can see a shift in traditions. Can you believe, women have now started doing the "proposing". Whilst this is very rare and i don't see anything wrong in it, i still prefer being a little old school when it comes to things like this.  

  The Perfect Proposal

 Racking your brains on how to propose to the women you love or the guy you love. Well rack no further. Below i have provided the basics of a romantic and perfect proposal. Before making a decision, take into consideration the type of person your partner to be. Think about what the person likes, for example if your partner is not comfortable in crowded places, proposing in a restaurant in front of a lot people might be a bad idea. You may consider proposing in a secluded place where your fiance to be, might feel more comfortable. 

 Romantic Proposals

This is one of the most popular choices of wedding proposals where you can pour your heart out to your partner. Now most romantic proposals are usually done in a similar manner, to make yours special, ensure you make it as unique as possible and add a few extra personalized touches. Some of the basics in creating the most romantic wedding proposal are as follows:

1) Choose a favorite place- ensure the place you choose has a significance to both of you. If you're choosing a restaurant, you can have someone decorate the place to accommodate the event with candles and flowers. 

2) Music- if you can afford, you can have musicians serenade your wife or husband to be, singing one of your favorite songs. If not, ensure you have one of your favorite songs playing when you do decide to go on your knees. 

3) Champagne or Wine- Order a bottle of the finest champagne to celebrate the occasion.

4) Flowers- Flowers is a must for such an occasion, preferably red roses which symbolizes love.

5) Desserts- You can include something sweet for such a joyous occasion.

6) The Ring- Don't forget the ring, what is a proposal without the ring? A ring may be a fine piece of jewelry, but when someone gives you a ring, they are giving away to you their life with utmost trust. They are giving you the opportunity to start life afresh with them. Make sure and get the perfect ring that would make your day most memorable, it doesn't have to be the most expensive ring, once you give it with all your heart that is all that should matter.

Whilst there are other ways of proposing such as hilarious ways, adventurous and spontaneous, i believe a romantic proposal is always the best way to go. The perfect wedding proposal, how would you do it?
