There are a million ways to propose to the love of your life, but the grand proposal ideas are the ones which take your breath away. While everyone’s idea to pop the question may be grand, you need to know which ones are creative and fun, and will surprise your spouse-to-be completely!

Keep in mind that every couple and every relationship is different, so what works for one couple may not work for the next. So always try to personalise it in any way you can – if your boyfriend is a football fan, you can have a football-shaped ring box or if your girlfriend loves adventure activities, then a hot air balloon ride could be a fun idea. We know how nerve-wracking planning a wedding proposal can be so we’ve created a list of the nine grandest surprise proposal ideas that will make your 'marry me' moment memorable!

Throw An After Party

Book a mini banquet hall and have the hotel fix up a proposal set-up with your partner’s favourite things. Balloons, candles, favourite music and the works. Once the proposal is done, have all your friends and family pop out and have a fun party in the same banquet hall. Not only can you celebrate with the ones you love, it’s a crazy unexpected party that your partner will love!

Plan a Fake Wedding Shoot

If you can manage it, tell your partner that you’ve both been selected to be models for a faux wedding shoot at an amazing location. Get all dressed up, and then during the “photo shoot,” ask the big question.

 

If you think that you would not be able to do all the planning, worry not - you have proposal planners who will do everything for you. All you need to do is get the ring and pop the question!
