Are you planning a proposal to your partner? Or, are you patiently waiting for your other half to pop the big question?<\/p>\n<p>Getting engaged is a big deal! It can be such an overwhelming blur of happiness and love. If you are planning a proposal, check out some of our favourite suggestions to make it extra special.<\/p>\n<h2>Reminiscing<\/h2>\n<p>Many couples choose a location or theme relating back to where the couple first met, first kissed, or first exchanged the words \u2018I love you\u2019. These places will always hold a special place in your hearts, so why not make it even more special for you as a couple?<\/p>\n<h2>New Memories<\/h2>\n<p>In contrast to revisiting old memories, you can make a memory somewhere completely new just for the two of you. Going on an exotic holiday, or even just a particularly beautiful spot down the road will give a completely new meaning to the place. We have heard of a lot of couples who get proposed to in their new home together. This is such a beautiful way to make moving an extra special occasion.<\/p>\n<h2>At the end of the day&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>Overall, planning a proposal can be a very stressful time for the proposer! Lots of people find it difficult to plan the perfect proposal. Did you see the guy who <a href=\"http:\/\/aplus.com\/a\/man-tracks-heart-beat-during-proposal?so=G85Z4oYTWJCUBsT84PpHRR&amp;ref=ns\">recorded his heart rate while proposing<\/a> to his now\u00a0fianc\u00e9e.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>He really proved just how nerve wracking proposing can be. Thankfully, the nervous groom to be received a \u2018yes\u2019!\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>At the end of the day, some proposals might not go perfectly to plan, but that is not important. A lot of our brides have shared proposals where they were getting ready for bed, with no makeup and frumpy pyjamas. It doesn\u2019t matter, once you are happy!<\/p>\n<p><em>Let us know your engagement story in the comments below.
