How do get your beau to say “Yes” on the most romantic day of the year, St. Valentine’s Day? I asked around and these are the best ones I could find.

Take her to a restaurant
First let the manager of the restaurant in on what you are planning. If you do, they are sure to make the evening go well. They may be able to provide you with some extra ideas or to make what you have planned go even better. Some will even provide you with a cake to go with your special day. In fact, you may be able to take that cake and have the words, “Marry Me” added to it.

Candy
You can use candies to propose in a number of ways. For example, replace one of the candies in a heart shaped box of them with an engagement ring wrapped in red tissue paper. Or, take all of the “Marry Me” candies out of the big bag of candy hearts and present a box full of them to her. Make sure to present her ring and get down on one knee after you give them
to her.

On The Air
If she has a special radio station that she always listens to, call in and ask the announcer if you can propose on the air. You may need to actually purchase some air time to do so; you’ll need to make sure you have plenty of time to do this.

A Surprise
Not the romantic type? If you aren’t, she is sure to catch on when you want to have an especially romantic dinner. Instead, make sure you find a unique way to present the question to her. If you can get the waiter alone, ask them to tie the ring to a ribbon in her menu. Or, slip it into her drink, but make sure she doesn’t swallow it. One way to avoid this is to get her to swirl it around with a swizzle stick. There are many ways in which you can make it a surprise. Once she sees the ring, make sure to pop
the question!

Another way to go about surprising her is through anything but a romantic dinner. For example, if she reads novels, grab one of the ones that she has read, glue the pages together except for the center and then cut a small hole into the book, just big enough for the ring. Leave it on the nightstand or on her pillow.

Theatre
Do you both love to visit the theatre? If so, this can be the perfect place to propose. See if the theatre will allow you to propose on stage. In fact, you may be able to get the actors and the manager in on it too. Ask them if there is a way that they can help you with the task at hand. Or, perhaps purchase some ad space in the programme for that evening. Include your first name, her first name and a “Marry Me” question. Make sure to point it out if she doesn’t see it.

Roses
Visit your florist and ask them to tie the ring inside the bouquet, or do it yourself. Then, when you present them, make sure to tell her to look for the ring inside.
