A prologue to your marriage, the story of your proposal will be repeated for years. You want the narrative of how you popped the question to be creative and interesting, leaving your fiancée ecstatic, speechless and misty-eyed all at once.
After 23 years in the jewelry business, Isaac Gottesman, the owner of Dimend SCAASI has heard many tales of creative and endearing proposals. Besides helping you pick the perfect ring, Dimend SCAASI can help you craft the perfect engagement plot.
To copy or to inspire, here are some unique proposals that will be proudly repeated as part of the couples’ romantic lore.
A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words: This creative idea costs only $1.50. Find a photo booth, and in one of the frames, give her a big kiss and hold up the ring behind your head so it appears in the shot. Let her be the one to grab the pictures outside the booth. She’ll be surprised to see the ring in the photo, but even more shocked to see that you’ve gotten down on one knee to propose.
Leap of Faith: An adrenaline junkie popped the question to his equally adventurous fiancée while skydiving. After some careful planning to ensure the ring would be secure in the ring box before the jump, the couple joined hands mid-air to truly fall in love.
Work of Art: A couple had a favorite spot in the city out by the Shedd Aquarium, so he prearranged for a local artist to meet them there. When the couple “stumbled” upon the artist, she saw that he had sketched a picture of them with the beautiful backdrop and her boyfriend on one knee, only to turn around and see him recreating the portrait in real life.
