Your first date: the origin story of your love saga. Whether it was smooth sailing, hilariously chaotic, or delightfully awkward, it’s the perfect scene to revisit. If it was magical the first time, why mess with perfection? But if it wasn’t exactly a rom-com, why not recreate the chaos for laughs? Or go for a do-over that’s picture-perfect—this time with the grand finale of you down on one knee. Nostalgia, romance, and a shiny ring? That’s a triple threat.
Who doesn’t love a good treasure hunt? Especially when the final treasure is a sparkling ring! Get your friends and family involved (secret agents, if you will) to craft a trail of clues leading your partner to the spot. Think charming notes, inside jokes, and maybe a favourite cafe or park bench. When they find you at the end of the trail, ring in hand, it’ll be the ultimate prize. Bonus points for themed scavenger hunts—pirates, detectives, or even their favourite rom-com plotline.
Start Valentine’s Day with a morning to remember. Whip up their favourite breakfast (or cheat and order in—we won’t judge), add flowers, and maybe a cheeky mimosa. As they’re digging into pancakes or avocado toast, casually present the engagement ring. Hide it in the napkin, under the coffee mug, or, for drama’s sake, go classic and drop to one knee. Breakfast will never be the same again.
Nothing beats the timeless romance of a candlelit dinner. Whether you’re cooking up a storm at home or splurging at their favourite restaurant, this is a foolproof setting. Picture this: the lights dim, soft music plays, dessert arrives, and under the cloche is the ultimate question, “Will you marry me?” Classic? Yes. Overdone? Never. Tweak it your way—a hidden ring in the dessert, a waiter’s surprise delivery, or even a handwritten note slipped with the bill.
It’s time to pack those bags! Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse for a dreamy escape. Pick a spot—a snowy chalet, a beachside haven, or even that cute Airbnb you’ve been eyeing. Propose during a sunrise hike, a moonlit walk, or even poolside with champagne in hand. The change of scenery and all the lovey-dovey vibes will make this getaway unforgettable.
Quite literally sweep them off their feet with a hot-air balloon ride. Soaring above the world with breath taking views, you’ve got the most dramatic and awe-inspiring backdrop. Propose mid-flight, and it’ll feel like you’ve stopped time (bonus points if you include champagne). Pro tip: Make sure they’re not afraid of heights before booking this adventure, or you might end up proposing with a side of terror.
Turn movie night into a blockbuster proposal. Set up a cosy space at home or in the garden with fairy lights, soft blankets, and their favourite snacks. Queue up a rom-com or a film that’s special to both of you. And here’s the twist: edit in a custom trailer with you popping the question, or just wait for the most romantic scene and drop to one knee. It’s intimate, creative, and straight out of a love story.
No matter which idea you go for, remember: it’s all about what makes your love story unique. Add your personal touches, bring in the romance, and prepare for the happiest “Yes” of your life. Happy proposing!
