How to Make that Perfect Proposal
Your long-term relationship has matured over the years and has reached the point of culmination. Now it’s time to bind you into the sacred bond of marriage. What is important is how special you make the day for them although you have to ask one of the most common questions of the world. Here are some tips for the day you plan to pop in the question.
- Know her well: Well, first things first. You ought to know your sweetheart well enough to guess what kind of proposal they would really like. If they are a shy person and you plan on an eccentric proposal, it might not elicit the desired response. So, read their minds and think of something that will surely please them..
- Do rehearse: Well it might sound easy but asking someone “will you marry me” requires a hell of a lot of guts. So, try and practice it beforehand, but don’t overdo it so that it sounds artificial.
- Natural/ Artistic: You can either be yourself while posing the question, which they will definitely like, you being the person they love. But it is always nice to go a bit out of the way and out of character to surprise and delight them. Use your own imagination and innovation to render the moment one of a lifetime.
- Dress up for the occasion: Remember, it is a very special day for both of you. Give it a lot of thought beforehand and do make them feel special by decking yourself up for them. They shouldn’t feel even for once that this is a half-hearted affair.
- Cliché is not boring: Though a bouquet, a ring, and going down on one knee may be tried and tested formulae, they have a high chance of evoking a positive reaction. So if you cannot come up with any innovative methods of proposing, stick to the traditions
- Speak your mind: Come on, people, it’s not an interview! Your question should be a preceded by a speech that would sweep them off their legs. You can read out a poem that they would be able to appreciate or write your own little proposal or speak spontaneously if you are endowed with the gift of the gab.
