Perfect Proposal in Westminster, MD

It’s engagement season and there is a lot of excitement and love in the air.  It is also the time of year when families spend a lot of time together. It is the perfect season to get engaged. So buy that ring and start planning the proposal. This is a simple guide on what to say when you propose so don’t worry, this blog will give you some advice.


Do I need a perfect speech to propose?


No. The most important thing is that your words are genuine. A proposal doesn’t need to sound scripted—it just needs to sound like you.


What’s the most important thing to say?


Tell them why you love them and why you want to spend your life together. Share what makes your relationship special and how they’ve changed your life for the better. Talk about how you met and why you want them in your life.

Should I talk about the future?


Yes. Who does not like talking about their exciting future. Mentioning your future together such as your dreams, goals, or simply growing old side by side adds meaning and reassurance to the moment.


Is it okay to keep it short?


Absolutely. A few heartfelt sentences can be just as powerful as a long speech. Emotion matters more than length and let the ring do the talking.


Should I practice what I’m going to say?


It helps to think it through, but don’t worry if emotions take over. Sometimes the most memorable proposals are imperfect and spontaneous.  Just be you and if you choose, add some humor!


What if I get nervous or forget my words?


That’s completely normal. Take a deep breath, speak from your heart, and remember that your partner loves you and not your public speaking skills.


How do I end the proposal?
