It’s that special time that only comes around once every four years – that’s right, it’s Leap Year!
If you have been considering proposing to your significant other, now is the perfect time to take the plunge and make their dreams come true with a unique Leap Year proposal!
Here are some wonderful ideas to get you thinking about planning that magical moment.
Say It with Candy
Does you partner have a sweet tooth? Why not use Love Hearts to pop the question?
Each sweet has a unique, romantic phrase inscribed onto them but sometimes it can be the luck of the draw as to whether you will end up with the marriage heart. Creator Swizzles now customises the wrapping on their Love Hearts so you can create your personalised message.
Not a fan of Love Hearts? Not a problem. Another sweet alternative can be hiding the engagement ring inside a packet of your loved one’s favourite confectionary. Nothing says surprise like searching for the last Malteser and finding an engagement ring instead.
Recreate Your First Date
Everyone remembers their first date. If you’re wracking your brain searching for the perfect Leap Year proposal, why not go back in time and remember what made you fall in love in the first place.
Recreating your first date can be an excellent way of setting the stage for the moment you get down on one knee and make that very romantic proposal.
Get the Family Involved
Do the two of you already have children?
Why not make your Leap Year proposal more personal by getting them involved?
It can be something as simple as having your baby wear a bib or onesie asking that all important question or have your older children get creative by designing posters or banners popping the question.
Unleash Their Inner Detective
Everyone loves a good scavenger hunt!
Why not set up a series of clues for your partner to follow leading to the ultimate surprise at the very end? You can use locations that are unique to the two of you or leave love notes disguised as clues around your house. Either way your proposal right at the end will make this scavenger hunt will truly be a prize worth finding.
Keep It Simple
If you really do just want to keep it simple, there’s a no more romantic gesture than selecting the perfect flowers to portray your message. It can be your partner’s favourite, the first flower you bought for them or even a bouquet with a special meaning. All these options are wonderful ways for you to express your love just before the big Leap Year proposal.
