Now onto out 11 Valentine’s Day Proposal Ideas…
Surprise Party
Are you and your special someone unbelievably close to your friends and family? If so, getting them involved in your proposal will make this moment truly unforgettable. You could take your partner out for a Valentine’s Day dinner date, leaving out the fact that at the restaurant is all your favourite people ready to shout surprise. Straight after the big reveal, give them no time to compose themselves, and get down on one knee and surprise them again with a Valentine’s Day proposal.
Treasure Hunt
A more adventurous Valentine’s Day proposal idea could be a treasure hunt around your hometown. Give them clues that lead them to different areas of your town that mean something to you both. It could be a park bench where you shared a kiss or the café where you both had your first date. The final clue will lead them to where you are waiting to propose. To make this even simpler, you could do this around your home with the final clue leading to a room which has been adoringly decorated with candles and rose petals.
Dinner Date
A Valentine’s Day proposal idea for the traditionalist, a dinner date is perfect for those that don’t want to rouse too much suspicion. Tell your other half to get dressed up for a special night out and treat them to a mouth-watering dinner somewhere you both love. Then at some point during the evening, you could get down on one knee in the middle of the restaurant or ask the restaurant staff to hide the engagement ring in their dessert!
Take Them Shopping
If you’re special someone loves a day out at the shops, then incorporate that into your Valentine’s Day proposal. Take them shopping and spoil them to lots of little gifts that make them smile. Then, just when they think the day is coming to an end, lead them into one of our C W Sellors boutiques and tell them they can choose their dream engagement ring. Our team at your chosen store can help make the occasion extra romantic, providing champagne and a gorgeous selection of diamond engagement rings for you to browse. This is a fantastic Valentine’s Day proposal idea for those that are unsure what type of engagement ring their loved one wants.
Where You First Met
One of the most romantic ways to propose on Valentine’s Day is to take your partner back to where you first met. Maybe it was in a bar, so you could take them for some drinks there to reminisce. Or maybe it was a first date in the park, and you could propose during a picnic? No matter where it was, we guarantee you’ll think of a romantic way to propose this February 14th.
Create a Countdown
For that special someone that loves receiving gifts, why not give them a present each day of February up until Valentine’s Day. The gifts could start off fairly small, like their favourite chocolate bar or some cute stationary, and eventually grow as the month goes on. You could include gifts like a bottle of their favourite perfume or some pieces of gorgeous diamond jewellery. For the 14th February, that’s when you’ll give them the ultimate gift: a diamond engagement ring.
Climb a Mountain
If you’re an adventurous duo, what better way to pop the question than at the top of a large peak or mountain. You can spend the day doing what you both love, hiking, picnicking and exploring a new region of the country. And just as you reach the very top and take in the breathtaking views, you can get down on one knee and ask the question. There’s no way they can say no!
Hot Air Balloon Ride
Another Valentine’s Day proposal idea for the adventurous type, why not head up into the sky and pop the question during a hot air balloon ride. Just image drifting over incredible landscapes at sunrise or sunset before getting down on one knee – it’s a proposal setting you’ll never forget. Just make sure they’re not afraid of heights first!
Prepare a Picnic
An indoor or outdoor picnic is a truly romantic way to celebrate Valentine’s Day and an ever more memorable way to propose. Put together some of their favourite foods and head out into nature for some romantic alone time. To make things even easier, we have put together our own Proposal Gift Hamper which includes everything you need for the perfect proposal including a diamond engagement ring of your choice!
Plan a Photoshoot
Last but not least in our rundown of proposal ideas for Valentine’s Day is a photoshoot proposal. If you want to capture the moment they say yes forever, then why not set up a couple’s photoshoot for Valentine’s Day. You can both get dressed up and get cosy in front of the camera, and then just before the shutter goes off, get down on one knee. You’ll capture their reaction right on film and have it to keep for eternity.
