The first choice for the best place to propose marriage is the place where you first met. “Met” implies that you shared at least a decent introduction at that place. Not for those of you who fell in love at first sight of her photo. If this is the place that rings a bell in both of your minds, it is most likely that taking her there is half the message delivered. If it had all started here, it is an important place for this milestone too.

WORST GIFT IDEAS FOR VALENTINES DAY

When selecting a place to propose marriage, opt for a quiet place where you can't be disturbed. Places having an aura of romance historically really help to set the mood. If Paris, Rome or even Taj Mahal is out of question, select places in your town known for romance. A restaurant with decent décor, ambiance and food is ideal. Do your homework before selecting a restaurant. Select and reserve a table for the occasion. If possible, pick a seat with a beautiful view.

Altitude and solitude complement each other. Take her uphill to a nearby hill top or mountain spot. Don’t forget to carry cool drinks even if you are on a vehicle. Carry a pastry/cake on which your message is clearly written, if you want to avoid the trouble of saying it out. Open it in front of her and let her read the message. Double check the cake before packing it from your friendly baker so that the message is rightly put.

If you can't afford the luxury of a fancy hotel to propose marriage, you can also take your chances at malls and jewellery marts. A jewellery mart would be appropriate so that your engagement ring could be of her choice if “yes”. If you're in a mall, you could give her a card that carries the message. Make sure the message is heartfelt and romantic.

Choosing an art gallery to propose marriage is also an option if she is fond of the arts. But understand the type of art work in the vicinity beforehand. She wouldn't give you a Mona Lisa smile standing beside an artwork on grief or hatred. And to make your proposal more romantic, make sure you do it on a meaningful day such as the date of your first anniversary or better yet, on Valentine's Day.
