While summer may be considered \u2018wedding season\u2019, engagement season is all year round. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, you may need to consider changing your proposal plans to somewhere a little closer to home. While some people will choose to postpone their plans until after quarantine, if your proposal is date dependent, or you simply don’t want to wait, you may need to get creative.<\/p>\n

Here are the top four things to keep in mind when proposing at home:<\/p>\n

Timing is Everything<\/h2>\n

While a spontaneous marriage proposal at home can be quite romantic, it\u2019s important to consider the timing before popping the question. If your partner is in a bad mood, or if they have been feeling down, you may think that a proposal would cheer them up, but a proposal may in fact make things worse. Similarly, If you think your partner would want to look their best when you drop to one knee, don\u2019t propose first thing in the morning when they are still in bed. Plan accordingly so that the timing feels perfect, not rushed and so that both you and your partner look and feel your best.<\/p>\n

Include Aspects of the Original Idea<\/h2>\n

Unfortunately, COVID-19 has thrown a wrench in a lot of plans. If this is you and you were originally planning on popping the question while you and your fianc\u00e9-to-be were celebrating your anniversary in Italy, consider incorporating this into your at home proposal. Include a nice Chianti, maybe order pizza from the fancy place and get ready for your perfect \u2018Italian\u2019 proposal.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, if you were planning on proposing at a location that means a lot to your relationship – consider a drive by or a photo backdrop.<\/p>\n

Set the Mood<\/h2>\n

Even if at home wasn\u2019t your first choice for a proposal, it\u2019s still important to set the mood. The right music can really set the tone for an amazing proposal. Whether it\u2019s twinkle lights, fresh flowers, or candles, a little ambiance and music can turn your living room or patio into a romantic oasis. Also be sure that your home is clean before popping the question to your partner.<\/p>\n
