I really depends. Do you think she'd want to be alone, have a big to do, or with her close friends and family? At home or out for a dinner, hike, etc?
Some girls on this board have had proposals at concerts, others at 1am half asleep in a hotel room! Whats good for one isn't necessarily good for another.
I'd say your first step is to answer some basic questions like the ones I've just addressed above, then you can start adding in extra details.

Whatever you do, I'm sure it will be fabulous. We wish you the best of luck and will be waiting for an update!!

yes i agree with april. my fiancee knew that i wanted a private moment with just the two of us (i.e ONLY us, no restaurant gawkers, etc.), and then a celebration with close family. the only thing i asked from him was that he say everything that was in his heart to say. to let me know why i was the one for him and why we were suited for each other. i think that's the main thing we want to hear.

the extra details are just icing on the cake! if you want to see mine go to www.mywedding.com/chadandsandra

Good Luck!!

My fiance proposed to me while I was on the couch in my PJ's. For us it was perfect. So like april said- there is no perfect proposal. You know your girl better than we do-- what does she like to do? Is she a go out, get dressed up & socialize type of girl? Does she prefer a quiet night in? Does she like it when you cook for her? Does she like going on vacations? Is she the center of attention in a crowd, or does she stick to the edges and prefer to be more low-key & quiet? Keep all of these things in mind when you plan the proposal. You wouldn't want her feeling totally on-the-spot if you propose in front of a crowd if she's a private person- and if she's Queen of Attention she might feel let down if you do something really low-key and private.

Think of the best times you've had together and maybe incorporate an element of that into your proposal ;)

i cant say it better than april missq or mt2b - my bf proposed after waking me up at like 3am - so nothing fancy for me, but it fit the moment...

Yep...another to say that it really depends on your girl and you as a couple.

Things to think about (in addition to what the other girls have said):

-Is she a thrill seeker or does she prefer things more tame?

-What are her hobbies, interests? Something that sets her apart from others.

-Is there something/somewhere that holds special meaning to you/her or both as a couple?

Once you've thought of all these things, try compiling them into the proposal plan. It doesn't have to be over the top...making it personal is what makes it special.

Good luck!!!

iminlove - I agree with all the girls. It really depends on what your girl wants and likes. My fiance proposed to me in front of the castle at Disneyland last November after the fireworks/snow because he knew that it was a ME kindofthing. I'd read so many stories about proposals there and we spend all our free time there so it just made sense to do it there. Problem is that I had all these ideas for places there and I've read tons more about others doing it at WDW but I can't use them since I'm already engaged lol Good luck!

How about taking her somewhere, like where your first date was? Honestly, I thought I would want the big show of a proposal, but look at my bio on how my hubby proposed. I loved it!

i agree with everyone else. mine proposed in NYC, on a hotel balcony overlooking hudson river, at sunset... it was private but incredibly thoughtful and detailed. let us know what kind of proposal she'd like (private vs public) and we can probably be more help :-) congrats!

Hi Iminlove - I haven't totally checked out this site, but feel free:

http://groomify.com/

I found it while on my local town watercooler site.

Like all the above - you should be sure that if your girl is shy or doesn't want ppl gawking, make it a private moment, if she doesn't mind the hoopla - go all out! Mine proposed to me at the restaurant he is a chef at by putting my ring on an ice sculpture and put it in on a covered silver platter!! He told me that he saw another guy do the same thing this past week:)

Good luck and let us know how it goes!
