Tips to make your marriage proposal memorable

a) Have a plan. A good plan will reduce the stress.

b) Decide if you want to pick out the ring together or will it be a surprise. Know your partner. Some people are very particular about the type, size, style of ring.

c) How much you are going to spend? After you purchase the ring how much is it going to cost to insure. If you buy an expensive ring most home insurance policies cover up to a certain amount.

d) Pick a jeweller with a great reputation. The ring is an expensive investment.

e) What, when, where and how. Think about what the other person likes and plan with the partner in mind.

f) Who do you want to be there? Maybe you want your friends in.

g) Do you want pictures of this special occasion? It is great to rely on friends and family to take pictures. But a professional photographer will know exactly what pictures to take.

h) Location,location,location. Pick a spot to pop the question that will work. Not all places will be good for this.

i) Have fun. Make it a day to remember for both of you.
