Lowveld ‘I Do’: Unique wedding proposal ideas

You want to propose, but you want to be original and when you ask her you want her to cry a lot and say yes! We know great marriage proposals can be hard to think of, so here are a few tips to help you out to make your going down on one knee a magical one!

Scavenger hunt proposal

Think of a few places that make your relationship special and send your girlfriend (with a few friends or family members) to visit these places. Throw in a salon appointment (hair and nails), and perhaps even a stop at a boutique to pick out a new dress. Along the way, have notes or cards or even a voice recording of yourself describing what each place or stop signifies. At the end of the scavenger hunt, propose with a romantic view in the background and have all your friends and family involved in planning the day there to celebrate after. IMAGE BY SUSAN LINES

Proposing on a hike

What better place to propose than at the end of the trail? It’s symbolic of your journey and chances are, the view at the top will be breathtaking. A few spots we can recommend are God’s Window, the lookout point at Kaapsehoop or even the Kaapsehoop Waterfall

Proposal in a book

Books or photo albums are a great way to narrate your own relationship and have a keepsake to hold onto for the rest of your lives. Having your girlfriend read through something before you get down on one knee is also a great way to build up all the emotion.
