Proposal Ideas With a Modern Twist

Today couple’s are modernizing just about everything they do, including asking for their partner’s hand in marriage. Proposals are so much more than getting down on one knee, but rather creating an over-the-top grand gesture. Regardless of how you propose, you will want it to be as special as can be by making it unforgettable. To help with this, below you will find some proposal ideas that will hopefully spark some inspiration. Just be sure to add a little of their personality to make it special and unique, and I’m sure the answer to your question will be yes!

Photo booth proposal

There are many perks to this type of proposal, aside from it being adorable as ever! Not only will you get the privacy of an intimate proposal, but you will get it all on camera! As they pull back the curtain, pull out the beautiful engagement ring you have selected and surprise them. There’s no way they will ever see this coming and you will be sure to capture their surprised expression as well! To make this even more special and depending where you are, have both of your families waiting outside of the booth to share the excitement with!

Destination proposal

Who doesn’t love a getaway? Plan a trip with your partner to visit your favorite destination or somewhere that has meaning to you both. There are many ways you can go about your proposal at a destination setting– so get creative! Are you in Europe? Then rent a vespa and tour the magical city you’re in. Before getting on the scooter, hand over the helmet with the ring inside. Then once they have said yes, ride around town celebrating. Maybe you’d like a more private setting? In that case, after a long day of excursions, invite your partner to have a drink at the hotel bar. When you are ready to retreat back to your room, have roses, candles and champagne all set up in your hotel room. This is the perfect setting for a romantic setting and one they will be sure to say yes to!

Foodie lover’s proposal

The possibilities are truly endless for this, just make sure to incorporate their favorite things and you should be good to go! Does your honey like to receive gifts? Then why not put together a gift basket of their favorite treats and hide the ring box within the basket. Or maybe your better half has a major sweet tooth? If that’s the case, visit your local bakery to come up with the sweetest proposal. Have a custom cake created with the proposal written in frosting displayed in the front window so when you walk by the storefront to stop and take a look you can watch their face light up with joy. A perk to this proposal is that you’ll have cake to bring home to celebrate with! Another option that you could have planned ahead is to go to your favorite restaurant and ask for the “specials” menu once you’ve been seated. Have your waiter come back with a special menu you’ve given in advance that states your marriage proposal message. This will be sure to be a day your partner will never forget!
