Where to propose? The three most important aspects of the proposal is location, location, location! Well, not quite, but it obviously would help get a positive answer if the locale was at least romantic. This can be achieved by the environment, ...beautiful gardens, a setting near the ocean or a waterway, or by the relevance of the location, ...a proposal back where your eyes first met, ... at the dispensa-drink machine of your local fast food outlet!

Every town, city or community has parks, gardens or bushland reserves that would serve the purpose for a moderately private proposal that could be sprung upon the unsuspecting partner under the guise of a quiet picnic or lunch for two. Alternately, many successful proposals have emerged from somewhat more populated, but just as romantic venues, such as a top class restaurant. As long as the prospective groom doesn’t think he has to ply his "bride to be" with enough beverage to equal the drinks bill on the local footy team’s end of season flight to Bali or Fiji to get an affirmative answer, or that he has to consume so much "Dutch courage" that when he gets on bended knee he realises that he’ll probably have to stay there for the rest of the night. Of course, not everyone desires or believes in the need for intimacy when proposing to their loved one. Many people believe that the very act of the proposal should be performed as a "public" declaration of their love for the most important person in their life.

These are the people who are only happy when their other half is just one of 20,000 who reads the proposal on the scoreboard at the stadium during the half-time entertainment or happily observes their loved one’s incredulity as everyone at the beach watches the plane with the proposal on the banner do two fly pasts as he gets down on bended knee in his swimmers on her beach towel.
