8 Best Romantic At Home Engagement Proposal Ideas
1. Fancy dinner date (at home)
Like what they usually say, the way to a lady’s heart is through her stomach. Get started with the best dinner date ever at home by preparing your meals by scratch. Sure this can be a lot of work and it’s okay to not have this too perfect. There are a lot of resources online for recipes.
Drop by or simply order everything you may need from your local store. You can also add a bottle of wine, a few volatile candles, and flowers. Set the atmosphere with lovely romantic music playing softly in the background. Try to be as normal as possible during the conversation over dinner then once the time is right, pop the question!
Don’t really have time to cook? Order from Kace Catering or Floral Bash!
2. Get help from your fluffy babies
