Five proposal ideas for Valentine’s Day

Stuck for proposal ideas for Valentine’s Day? At Diamond Heaven, we have five ideas that will make for a great marriage proposal for your Valentine.

Love is in the air as it comes closer to the most romantic time of the year, Valentine’s Day. It’s the one day where couples and partners across the United Kingdom have no excuse not to express their love and affection for their significant other.

On February 14th, getting the marriage proposal right is crucial to making that the day you decide to marry someone special for the rest of your life.

At Diamond Heaven, we have five Valentine’s Day proposal ideas that will blow the usual box of chocolates and a bed of roses out of the water for your Valentine. 

Five ideas to nail the perfect Valentine’s Day proposal

 1.Recreating your first date

Remember when you first met your partner all those years ago? Going back in time to your first date can make that marriage proposal all the more meaningful.

Whether you first met your Valentine in a favourite restaurant or bar, on holiday or while going for a walk, getting the location and time of day right is essential. Add an engagement ring alongside popping the question and your partner will have a memorable Valentine’s Day.

2.Getting young family members and pets involved

One of the more adorable ideas is using little ones in your family or pets to be involved in your secretive proposal idea. 

For a little one, it could involve creating a t-shirt that has the proposal line printed “Daddy, will you marry me?” or “Mummy, will you marry me?”. If your Valentine loves animals, then why not gift them a dog or cat with the ring hung around their neck, making that romantic day that extra bit special.

3.Sending your valentine on a treasure hunt

If romantic proposal lines are not to your partner’s taste, then send them on a treasure hunt. You have to tell them that they’ll get to the surprise you’ve planned unless they’ve followed a set of clues that will lead them to a proposal and gift you’ve set for them.

Timing your entry when you’ve come in after your partner has completed the treasure hunt is crucial. When your Valentine opens the ring box, it can turn the romantic date into a heart-shaped marriage proposal that they’ll never forget.

4.Sing a proposal to your Valentine

You don’t have to be the best singer in the world, but if your Valentine loves music, then it's worth putting together a marriage proposal in a karaoke bar.

If you are someone that does not like singing in public, then you can sing to your Valentine at home. Whether that is your partner’s favourite song or an original composition and when the time is right, hold your Valentine’s hand and propose to them at the end.

5.Going on your favourite walk

Add a little bit of adventure to your Valentine’s marriage proposal by going with them for their favourite walk together.

With beautiful scenery surrounding your walk, it’s a great time to talk about your favourite memories together that you’ve had with friends and family. When the moment is right, set your camera up with the timer of yourself and capture the moment of your marriage proposal to your Valentine.
