Preparing for the Perfect “I Do” Moment
Men, for all their bravado, almost always want to have the perfect moment when they pop the question. This includes the flowers, the balloons, the romantic gestures, the flowery words, and, of course, the ring. What will the moment be, anyway, if there is no ring? But before all these, how do you set it up?
Looking for the Ring
The ring is, of course, very important when you pop the question, so you have to choose wisely the store where you will purchase one from.
There are many jewelry stores both in malls as well as in the Internet, so it might be a bit hard to choose the store or e-store for that matter. The best way to get your money’s worth when it comes to choosing among the jewelry stores is to buy only from trusted establishments. What they offer might be a bit more expensive than others, but you will also be assured of the quality of the ring.
Setting the Ambience
Once you have the ring tucked safely inside its velvet box, the next thing that you have to do is to set the ambience of the location where you will ask her the question. As this calls for a very romantic setting, a very romantic setting is what should be in your mind. Do away with too public places as this can take her attention from you and maybe even cause some embarrassment, when she shriek in delight when you drop down on your knees to propose or when you drop your head in shame if you get rejected. Either way, it will not harm you if you set it up perfectly.
You can make use of candles that you can strategically place. Candles, as we all know, can instantly give any dull room a romantic setting, especially if you place her favorite flowers in beautiful vases as well. Make sure that you have prepared her favorite menu as this can tie the whole look together. You can also pop in the player romantic songs to really set the mood.
Never forget the perfume and cologne. You can spray her favorite scent of perfume and cologne or pour them unto a diffuser so as to spread the scent and let it diffuse into the room.
This setting though is perfect if you are going to propose to her inside her favorite restaurant or your or her apartment.
