A picnic they’ll never forget

Simple, but oh so effective for a spring proposal is none other than a picnic! Whilst the weather is on the up, spring often marks the time we can ditch our coats and celebrate what it’s like to be out in the great outdoors again. As the grass gets notably greener, the beauty of a picnic proposal is that it’s a great way to pop the big question if you’re a little more on the nervous side about the uncontrollable factors i.e., the weather! Getting together picnic supplies is something that can be done in a day, so you can keep an eye on the weather and plot your proposal around a sunny Saturday or Sunday that suits you and the weather app best. Grab a big blanket, stash you’re a hamper with all your partners favourite snacks and the rest is all up to you and how you think your partner would love to be proposed to.

Up, up, and away

A little more on the out-there scale, March is the typical time when flying season opens for hot air balloon rides, making this a great option when it comes to proposing. Depending on where you book your hot air balloon ride, most often offer special packages which includes bubbles so once you get the important part out the way, you can quite literally float around on cloud nine whilst you sip your bubbles and toast to your future together mid-air. Sounds romantic right?

A proposal for the more active couple

Are you more of an activity-based couple?! If you prefer your date days to involve a hike up a mountain or a bike ride around a gorgeous country park, why not incorporate this into your proposal!? As a lot of these activities are often on hold during the colder months, now’s the perfect time to suggest something that won’t make your partner too suspicious! If you both love to get your walking boots on, take advantage of a new season and find a special spot you know they’d love. Wondering how to make the magic happen? Suggest you take a photo on self-timer if there’s nobody around, and secretly get the video camera on! If you’re around a group, ask a stranger to take your picture! If you’d rather a snapshot to capture the moment then leave it at that, or whisper for them to record if you want to be able to replay the moment on film forever more.
