My advice would be to reflect on the type of person heshe is , and what you ' re into as a couple . My FH proposed to me in front of my whole family at a baseball game where he set it up so they let me get a home run , and he was waiting at home plate . It was totally unexpected and so fun . But , if I was a shy person who was easily embarrassed in front of a crowd , it would have been a nightmare . So I guess think about what kind of person you ' re proposing to . Do they thrive on solving a problem ? Go with a puzzle , scavenger hunt , or something creative like that . Are they more personal and romantic ? Maybe go to a spot that means a lot to the both of you . It ' s a great opportunity to really think about who you are as a couple , and what makes you special together . Build on that and I ' m sure you ' ll figure out something wonderful !
