The Art of the Proposal

Getting engaged is a big step in any relationship, as it signifies a new stage of your life together. While it is not necessary to have a massive hoo-ha regarding the proposal, a lot of people like to have a memorable proposal that is worth describing to other people for many years to come. But what do you need to consider before the special day comes around, and how will you know if your beloved will say yes?

The right match
Hopefully by this point you will have considered whether the two of you are the right match for each other, and whether you have the same (or at least similar) aspirations and goals in life. If you have discovered this much, you should know whether or not they wanted to get married and start a life together at some point; this is when you need to show them that now is the right time. Now you just need to decide how to do it.

How to propose
One of the ways to get a proposal right is to match the situation with their personality; if they are shy it is best not to embarrass them, and if they are outgoing they might appreciate an audience. Although, if you are a bit cheeky you might want to do the exact opposite, and find that they really didn't mind at all! Once you know about the proposal situation, just match your location with their interests.

Quick hints:
• Zoo or park - if they like animals and wildlife
• Sports game - if they enjoy fast-paced and adrenaline filled activities
• Secluded beach - if you want an intimate yet beautiful backdrop
• Restaurant - if you want to do it the way they do in the movies

The finer and final details
Getting an engagement ring and some jewellery insurance to go along with it is one of the vital parts of the engagement process. It's up to you whether or not you go down on one knee, or how formal you make the proposal. Now is the time to think of the words you are going to say; so if you are nervous and think you might stutter it is best to keep this simple.

There are no guarantees that your partner will say yes to your proposal, but if truly know them and plan it accordingly, you should not have any major problems! The most important part of getting engaged is to enjoy it, so plan a proposal that will bring a smile to both of your faces.
