It\u2019s completely understandable why you\u2019d want to! Is there a more romantic day of the year? Whilst everyone seems to be planning a wedding<\/a> you haven\u2019t even proposed yet!!! So even if the day is clich\u00e9, your proposal doesn\u2019t have to be. Here are 5 creative ways to propose on Valentine\u2019s Day!<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Say It with Paint<\/span><\/h2>\n

For the imaginative couple who loves to try new things together, hide your proposal in painting class. Most cities offer a wine\/paint class, where romance and art meet! They\u2019ll assume that you\u2019ve found something new and exciting to do together, never suspecting that you have a proposal waiting. And after the big event, you\u2019ll have a momento to remember the evening for the rest of your lives.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Proposal: Paint several easels ahead of time, spelling out \u201cWill You Marry Me?\u201d and make arrangements with the class instructor to have them help coordinate the big reveal.<\/p>\n

2.Create a Storybook<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no better way to lead up to the next chapter in your life than to start at the beginning. Create a book about the journey that has brought you to this moment by highlighting key moments in your relationship! Start with how you met, your first date, first holidays, memorable trips, or inside jokes along the way. Don\u2019t worry if you\u2019re not an amazing artist or writer\u2026just keep it simple and we promise it will be a hit. Even stick figures are romantic when it\u2019s all about your love story! Using your own photographs is another option, for more of a \u201cscrapbook\u201d feel. You can have your book bound at local printing shops.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Proposal: On the very last page, create a part of the story that says something like \u201cThis is when I asked you to be mine forever.\u201d Or simply draw or include a picture of a ring!<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Put It in the Movies<\/span><\/h2>\n

Are you and your love a couple of movie buffs? Rent out an ad space at your local theatre to play your \u201ctrailer\u201d asking them to marry you! Thanks to technology, you can produce a short video fairly easily using video editing software. Or hire a Videographer <\/a>to help you produce something that\u2019s a little more high-end. Turn your life into a true romantic comedy with clips of video of the two of you, or recreate classic scenes from old romantic movies. We guarantee they won\u2019t see this one coming!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Proposal: During the last scene of the trailer, proclaim your proposal onscreen and have the ring waiting for the moment of surprise.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Take It to the Streets<\/span><\/h2>\n

An idea for the artsy couple, or just those who appreciate spontaneity and the unexpected: Incorporate live art. The trend of \u201cliving creativity\u201d is definitely growing, and live artists are quite amazing to watch. Maybe you set up an evening stroll, and \u201chappen\u201d to come across a Performing Artist who is painting on a canvas, or creating a chalk mural on the sidewalk. Encourage your significant other to stop and take it in for a moment, for a truly unique memory.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Proposal: Coordinate with the artist ahead of time to have them include the two of you in their piece. As your darling realises that it\u2019s about the two of you, pull out the ring for your big moment.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Love to Laugh?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Looking for unconventional ways to propose? This is for the couple that loves to laugh. If you and your significant other are always teasing each other a prank could be a perfect fit! Maybe you book a Singing Telegram that \u201cproposes\u201d to the wrong person, or a hire a Mariachi Band to follow them around (while you act clueless of course). You know what makes them laugh better than anyone, so get creative!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Proposal: After you\u2019ve tortured them for a few minutes, whip out the ring and let them know that they\u2019re the only one for you.<\/span><\/p>\n
