When it comes to proposing the location can be as intimate, special, extravagant, or quaint as you’d like. Whether it is a place that already holds sentimental value, or a place where you are establishing sentimental value, it will be a magical moment! I’ve put together some tips on choosing the perfect proposal location so you can pick a place that’s right for you.

Plan For The Season

Summer, Spring, Winter, and Fall all bring different climates, depending on where you are in the US. Here in KC there will be a big difference in temperature and weather from one season to the next. I recommend planning for the season and always having a back-up plan if you decide on an outdoor proposal! You never know when it may rain, or snow. 

Pick A Place You Love

A parent’s house, your favorite coffee shop, a park/trail you frequent, or just a place you love to go together are all great options when it comes to proposal locations. You can deck out a parent’s backyard, or meet at a local park. But picking a place you frequent and/or love going to together makes the moment even more special!

Think About The Afterparty 

It is common to have a gathering with friends and family after the proposal. Which is something to take into consideration when deciding on a location. If you pick a location that can serve as a proposal location and an afterparty location you can kill 2 birds with one stone. If you choose an outside location, such as a park, you may have to do some additional planning for the after party!

Regardless of where you decided to pop the question, the day will be one to remember. Just trust your gut and don’t hesitate to ask friends and family for advice and help!
