How to perfect a surprise proposal.

Are you Planning to Propose and need a little guidance? This blog post will help get your gears turning. In honor of these two, Selina and Harrison, and seeing how smoothly this proposal went, I decided to create a little list of pointers to help a proposal to go off without a hitch!

Pick a location and scout it out in person. Check out how the lighting looks at the time of day you want to propose.
Do your research to make sure you do not need a permit if you plan to set up a special area with decor.
Research photographer’s and ask to see their portfolio in a similar setting, especially if it is an indoor location with minimal natural light.
Think about the season you are goin to propose in. Will it be cold or hot? How will she dress for the season? You want to make sure her outfit is something she would like to be photographed in.
Make sure you take into account the location and fashion dilemmas. For example, if it is at the beach, make sure her hair will be tied back or out of her face if the wind blows!
Pre Plan a date night with your fiance for that evening. This will help divert her attention and you are guaranteed to have her dress up!
Keep in mind a location for a rain plan.
Designate a family or friend to help deliver or set up your proposal site.
Depending on your budget, it may be beneficial to hire a wedding or event coordinator to help coordinate the logistics and any other vendors you may need to incorporate during this special question.
