Every woman dreams of a fairytale wedding, but let’s be real, a magical wedding proposal is just as, if not more meaningful. After shedding a tear or two (okay fine, I might have bawled my eyes out), I’ve rounded up 7 wedding proposals so good you can’t say no.
These proposals will leave men aspiring to be like their successful male counterparts, and women yearning for their time to shine. Hold back the waterworks. For all you hopeless romantics, you’ve been duly warned.
1. For The Adrenaline Junkie Couple
Bring your relationship to even greater heights with a wedding proposal executed mid-air. This lucky lady was whisked off to Macau where her fiancé defied gravity and the odds to plan this groundbreaking feat at the world’s highest bungee jump.
If you reckon your partner’s a full-fledged thrill seeker, an adventurous wedding proposal could be the perfect stepping stone.
2. Killing 2 Birds With 1 Stone
Tip #1: A birthday celebration could be a great decoy that will keep your future missus from guessing her surprise. In this case, a beachside staycation + romantic photo montage + gathering of friends and family seem to be the perfect equation for a successful surprise proposal!
3. Whose Proposal Is It?
Tip #2: Better yet, falsely lead her on so she’ll believe that her best friend’s the one getting hitched. We all know planning a proposal is no easy task. Sometimes, we need all the help we can get; even if some form of deception has to be involved. The look on your partner’s face will be priceless.
4. The Unlikely Star Of The Movie
Not every guy has the opportunity to star in a movie and propose to his long-term girlfriend ALL at the same time. But if you do, definitely take a page out of Sezairi Sezali’s playbook. The winner of Singapore Idol 3 popped the question on the last day of filming for the SG50 movie, 1965.
5. #NetflixAndPropose
I’d like to call this an elevated and monogamous version of #NetflixAndChill. All you HIMYM fans who have watched all 9 seasons would appreciate all this effort! Taking inspiration and reenacting certain scenes from your partner’s favourite TV series can bring your wedding proposal to the next level.
6. Merlion Park Flashmob Proposal
Hours of dance practices and rehearsals definitely paid off. All that effort coupled with a killer opening line makes the proposal a success for this couple. You can’t possibly say “No” to an innovative flashmob dance proposal at one of Singapore’s most scenic locations.
7. #TBT Proposal
Take a walk (or in this case, bus ride) down memory lane as this wedding proposal combines elements of nostalgia and sheer thoughtfulness. Having his fiancée communicate on IRC was a cute touch. Having problems deciding on the ideal date to propose? Learn from these childhood sweethearts. The happy couple got engaged on the very same day they became official 12 years ago.
If you are thinking of planning THE best wedding proposal for your better half, hopefully, these 7 perfectly orchestrated ones will inspire some of you to up your proposal game. Make the unromantic “Want to BTO?” proposal a thing of the past! You are welcome, ladies.
