The proposal is a story you will tell for the rest of your life. "How did he do it?" "Where did you do it?" "Did you know it was coming?" "How did you react?" Where and how you propose or are proposed to can be as important as the Big Day itself. If you are struggling to find the right location or right time, listen to your gut, and check out a few ideas from us! Where you metMaybe you met at a bar, a friend's house, or at a political rally. Go back to the place where it all began and recreate the first time you met.
