Romantic Marriage Proposal Ideas

Looking for romantic ways to propose? Here are some romantic marriage proposal ideas that will sweep her off her feet.

• Cook her a romantic dinner for two. Tie the engagement ring using ribbon to the stem of a glass of champagne or sparkling cider.
  
  
• Take her out for dinner at your favorite restaurant and arrange with the waiter to display the ring in a box as one of the choices on the dessert tray, or write "Will you marry me?" in chocolate sauce on the rim of her dessert plate.
  
  
• Rent a limousine. Propose to her in the limo on the way to or from your special evening. Be sure to bring champagne or sparkling cider to celebrate.
  
  
• Rent your favorite romantic movie. Make it special with homemade popcorn and her favorite movie treat. Tell her you want your own happy ending by proposing as the credits roll at the end.
  
  
• Give her three roses: Tell her one represents the past, one represents the present and the last one (with the ring tied to it) represents the future.
  
  
• Turn out all the lights in your apartment or home. Make a trail with candle lights leading her to the ring.
  
  
• If you enjoy sailing, go for a sunset sail and propose at sea. Remember to bring some food and champagne and wine glasses for a toast.
  
  
• Is she a traditional gal? Start by asking her father for her hand in marriage. Then arrange for a family dinner. Propose in private and make your announcement to the table.  

• If she loves animals, bring home a new puppy or kitten and tie the ring around the collar with ribbon.
  
  
• Go for a hot air balloon ride and propose as you're watching the sunset. Make sure you bring food and champagne and celebrate with a toast.
  
  
• Send her on a treasure hunt. Provide clues all over town to your favorite spots or just around the house. The last hint should lead her to you, with the ring in hand.
