Dinner is Served…

Why not make the proposal extra special and personal by cooking your special someone their favourite meal! This can be super personal and shows that you have made the effort to make this moment perfect. Why not create a theme to match their favourite foods? If they love Italian, make your own pasta and cook up a delicious dinner with Italian themed decorations. Create the atmosphere of being in a restaurant and they won’t even notice they hadn’t left home.

Cheese and Wine Without the Sunshine…

Were you planning a picnic in the park? Who says you can’t still do it from home! Whether you have a backyard, balcony or even a spacious living room, you can create the perfect picnic from home. Set out a rug, some pillows and cosy up with some delicious cheese and wines and make that special moment happen! Get creative and turn your space into a picnic paradise that will surprise your partner.

Via Broma Bakery

Garden Party for Two…

If you have a gorgeous garden or outdoor space, why not utilise it. Think rose petals and candles as you get down on one knee, under a stunning old tree or overlooking the water from your balcony. Use the space that you have to create the illusion that you are outside and free. By transforming your space with signs, lights, flowers and candles you can really create that WOW impact.

Movie Moment…

Why not bring the movies to your home! Creating an at home cinema is the perfect way to pop the question to your loved one. Why not rent a screen or projector? Or even use your own TV to create a comfy movie moment. You could put on their favourite movie or even create a slideshow with your favourite photos and videos of memories you have shared.

Searching for Treasure…

A treasure hunt can be a thrilling and romantic way to propose at home. Start by leaving clues around the home by their morning coffee that will lead them through a series of personal clues through the house. You can also incorporate romantic gestures like flowers or chocolates to make the moment extra special.

Puppy Love…

Why not incorporate your pet into your proposal! Now is the perfect time to invest in a puppy or if you already have a beloved pet, why not include them in the big question. “Will you marry me” dog tags are a gorgeous way to surprise your partner. You can even train your pet to deliver the news with a note or sign! Incorporating your pet can make it super personal and something to share between the three of you!

Breakfast in Bed…

Serve up some eggs and bacon with a side of diamonds! What a perfect way to wake up, all snuggled up in love with your partner. The perfect morning surprise that is personal, low-key and one for the memory books. Create a picture perfect breakfast tray with a little something special on the side and relive that moment on each anniversary with a yearly breakfast in bed!

Via Pinterest

Pamper Proposal…

Shower your loved one with attention and create a spa-like getaway experience, which leads up to popping the big question. Run a warm relaxing bath surrounded by candles or even set up a massage table to create that getaway spa retreat vibe. Transport them to a place of peace, bliss and tranquility that will put them in the perfect loved up mood for the big question.

Via Casale Jewelers

Ordering in Something Special…

Are you not a great cook or just looking for that restaurant quality food? Why not try ordering in from one of your favourite fine dining restaurant! Merivale are currently offering a range of packages from some of their best restaurants including Totti’s, Bert’s and Mr Wong’s. Why not take up your dinner game with a fancy feast that will make anyone say YES!

Via Merivale at home

It’s All In The Detail…

Whether you are looking to keep it low key or a grand proposal from home, make sure you really put in the effort with the details. Whether is a picture wall or 100 balloons, make that moment extra special with a personal touch that is sure to surprise and be a memory that you will hold onto for a lifetime.
