A marriage proposal is always a unique and one-of-a-kind experience for any couple. In the past ( pre-pandemic), flash mob proposals, destination engagements, and Times Square Billboard engagement were definitely a big hit, now we see different trends. Couples are more interested in private venues, private rooftops with skyline views, family and dogs are included almost in every proposal, staycations are new vacations and creativity is rising.
So what are the new proposal trends for 2021?
1. Staycations
Staycation is the combination of two words, ‘ Stay’ and ‘ vacation’, and who would think that you can stay on vacation in your own city. This is a perfect way to re-discover your city and surprise your partner with a creative marriage proposal she won’t forget. New York is a million destinations in one. You can find everything here, so why not go on vacation?
Plan your romantic weekend together, get a room at that nice hotel you always heard of ( and you would be surprised how affordable the hotels now), reserve a private dining cabin, and take your partner on vacation.
