    Planning the Perfect Christmas Proposal

    Planning a Christmas Proposal is popular, but we've got the best tips on how to make your proposal as unique as your relationship. In this blog, we'll be sharing our best tips from planning all the way to popping the questions!

    Did you know that December 24th and 25th are two of the most popular days to propose? I mean, it is "the most wonderful time of the year" for a reason. Christmastime is symbolic of love. You spend time and make memories with the ones you love most, what better time to propose to the one you love the most?

    What are the important details for your proposal?

    The first step in planning your Christmas proposal is to decide what the most important details in your proposal are. Is the date important? Do you really want to propose on a certain day, like December 25th? Or is there a special location, certain people you want to attend, or even a specific time you want to propose at? These are all examples of possibly important factors to include when planning your Christmas proposal.

    Once you have narrowed down the day and rough time, who's going to be there, and other important details to you, it's time to pick a location!

    Choosing a location

    Is your bride to be dreaming of a romantic proposal with beautiful photos to cherish the moment forever? If so, take that into account when choosing your proposal spot. Or maybe your (almost) fiancé enjoys intimate gatherings and would prefer if you proposed somewhere private. You might just want to propose while decorating the tree with a marriage proposal ornament!

    Another factor to consider with location is the sentimental value. Is there a way you could incorporate your favorite date night spot, the place where you asked her to date you, or other important locations in your relationship or lives? 

    Lastly, think about weather and practicality. Will the weather be comfortable at this location, and is there a scenic area you can propose at?

    Set Up & Decorations for Your Christmas Proposal

    Now that you know who is attending your Christmas proposal and where it will be located, you can work on decorations and set up.

    Think about how you could incorporate sentimental items from your relationship, like photos or items saved from past dates or experiences. Would she like to see you incorporate rose petals, candles, or other romantic decor? Twinkle lights are a great way to keep things well-lit for an evening proposal, and they add to the overall Christmas feel.

    Consider hiring a photographer or asking a close friend to take photos during and after your proposal. This way you can cherish that special moment forever!

    How to Pop the Question

    Now for the most important part, how will you pop the question!

    Be sure to include an element of surprise into your proposal. Whether the entire thing is a complete surprise and she has no idea, or she thinks you're taking her to get photos done but you're really proposing, surprise her! It makes the moment more memorable and exciting.
