1) Select a Ring<\/p>\n

Selecting a ring is generally the most nerve wracking, and costly, part of the proposal. With a little research you can take the stress out of the whole process.

2) Ask for Her Family\u2019s Blessing<\/p>\n

Though it might seem like an outdated practice, most brides and their families still hold this tradition close. Reach out to her father, or a parent figure in her life, and make your intentions known. Once you\u2019ve received their blessing, it\u2019s time to start planning the big proposal.<\/p>\n

3) Plan a Proposal She Won\u2019t Forget<\/p>\n

As you plan your big proposal, take stock of what is important to you both. Is she someone who would like an over-the-top gesture or would she like something quiet and intimate? Consider taking her to the first place you met or reliving a memorable date. As long as you put thought into it, and keep her preferences in mind, you\u2019re sure to plan a proposal that will take her breath away.<\/p>\n
