Rising Stakes

If you’ve ever watched a marriage proposal, either in person or on TV, it’s likely you were drawn to the happy moment and moved by the level of emotion it brings. The depth of feeling is contagious. Some marriage proposal consultants recognize this fact, and are quick to help men who want to impress their intended to capitalize on the public’s love of a good story and give them what they want, in the form of bigger, and more unusual, proposals sure to make any attention-loving bride-to-be sure to blush from the attention.

Of course as more men go to greater lengths to ask their girlfriends to marry them, the stakes get higher and higher. It takes more and more to impress, and it becomes harder to come up with new approaches. So the experts have to continually reinvent the ideas and to stretch themselves to be fresh.

The key, though, truly isn’t all about how big the proposal is, but more about achieving the perfect fit. For instance, if you met on a train ride, perhaps your bride would appreciate being proposed to with a candlelight dinner on a private train car. Or if you both enjoy the opera, a personal serenade from your favorite opera star with notables from New York’s social scene watching might be a hit. It’s all about what touches your heart and seems like the perfect beginning to a life you will build together. Further, if you think she would like her family and friends present when you pop the question, keep this in mind when planning your strategy. Or, if she comes from a traditional family where etiquette is important, remember to ask for her family’s permission for her hand as the event nears.
