Write your proposal in the sand. During a romantic stroll on the beach, spell out your proposal in the sand with a heart around it.
Plan a treasure hunt leading up to the proposal. This can be as simple or as elaborate as you want, but the key is to make it personal. Include clues and stops that are special to you and your relationship. and end with the ring hidden in a special spot.
Make a personalised video proposal.
Go skydiving and propose mid-flight.
Hire a band to serenade your loved one with your proposal.
Have a romantic dinner for two – either dine out or cook dinner together and then pop the question over a romantic candlelit dinner. This is a great option if you want to keep things low-key and intimate.

Get a custom-made piece of jewellery with the proposal hidden inside.
