Marriage proposal: Valentine’s Day or Anniversary


Recommended Posts

Ok so I need advice. I want to propose to my girlfriend but I want to do it on a specific date. I’m not sure if Valentine’s Day or our anniversary is better. Valentine’s Day is the 13th, but our anniversary is the 19th. What date is better?

I vote too for anything but Valentine's Day. Practically speaking, a day where it's not super close or on any other holiday and will be a good chance you will be able to go out and celebrate each year would be sweet.

 

Congratulations on finding someone you want to marry and best wishes on the proposal !

Valentine's Day is cliche. Make it its own day.

 

 

And make sure you have someone there to take pictures.

 

I would advise against this. It should be your special moment. That's too much pressure and she won't feel free to react naturally to kiss you or not, etc versus playing to the crowd. I would ask her to marry you after getting back from dinner on one of those nights or a special night all its own. By and large, most married friends valued the intimate, private proposal and the one who made the proposal so public didn't last

 

Or what if she says she is not ready? Or feels pressured to say yes because others are ready to snap their cameras?
