PROPOSING TO THE WOMAN OF YOUR DREAMSMarriage ProposalsGeneral Introduction
Timing of a Marriage ProposalWhen is the correct time to propose to the woman of your dreams? This is a question commonly asked by men all around the world. The only true answer is: There is no perfect timing, but once you answer a few basic questions, you will know whether the time for doing so has already come. Some people feel the need to propose early on in a relationship whilst other are not sure whether this is the next logical step. Keep the following things in mind: Do not rush! Do not procrastinate! Financial Emotional Do you feel ready? Does she feel ready? Proposing on Valentine's DayThe 14th of February belongs to lovers all around the globe. So you thought that proposing on Valentine's Day is a good idea? Keep the following tips in mind and you can expect to experience a wonderful proposal. Proposing Marriage on ChristmasPositioning yourself for devotion - Proposing on bended kneeA recent study by scientists evaluated what women appreciate most during a marriage proposal. Not surprisingly, a vast majority mentioned seeing her partner doing the proposal kneeling. We will try to delve deeper into this tradition, see where it comes from actually and analyze modern day usage of it. #Where does the tradition stem from historically? Historians disagree as to where this custom originated. However, we have found various similar rituals and gestures that may serve as a potential explanation. In general, we see a thread of devotion running through all the customs. Someone kneels down in front of a higher power in a church, shows his appreciation for his majesty and so on and so forth. It typically shows appreciation, respect and devotion. The principle behind this gesture is as simple as it gets: in order to show the appreciation of a partner, bending a knee signals the commitment to a partnership and opnely asks the question of whether this request will be granted. The engagement ring is presented in a pragmatic manner once the man is on his knees as it is placed exactly between the two individuals and hereby represents a bond. The woman is in a powerful position where she has to either accept or decline this proposed bond. You may ask yourself whether this way of signaling being ready for a life-long commitment is still popular in modern times. Research indicates that approximately two thirds of all marriage proposals incorporate a bended knee in the procedure. Location of a Marriage ProposalTroubleshooting Checklist for a Marriage ProposalIf Outdoors: What if bad weather hits your desired location? What do you intend to do if she says No? Do you exactly know what you will say to her? The Last Moments Before A Marriage ProposalTrust us, everyone is feeling nervous. Here are a few tips on how to cope with this nervousness. Have you cleaned the ring prior to the proposal? It can happen but it should not. What is the impression you convey upon your wife to be if the ring is covered with marks of your sweaty fingers all over? This is something that matters much to women and some of them see it as an insult being presented with a dirty ring. Ask yourself: Where is the sense in shelling out thousands of dollars if the ring is not being presented in a clean manner to the woman of your dreams? How do I properly propose to a woman?It is normal for men to be nervous before a marriage proposal. It is also normal that men educate themselves on the proper etiquette of a proposal in order to avoid disappointing their significant other. Actually most women do not expect their husbands-to-be to know everything and are flattered by the desire to make the proposal as perfect as possible. We have compiled a short guide that shows you the most important aspects to look out for before, at and after your marriage proposal. You do not want to be reminded about the mistakes you did in future years, do you? First of all, you will have to decide upon a location. This provides the setting of the marriage proposal and allows you to continue with the planning in more detail. # Are you about to propose at home or whilst on vacation? Your goal has to be to find out what is romantic to her. Is it a visit to a fancy restaurant? Does she dream of the sea and dipping her beautiful toes into the warm sand? Is she constantly dreaming of spending a night with you whilst the stars sparkle above both of you? Is her favorite scene in romantic movies when the couple finally kisses at sunset? It is your duty to find out. Try to find out by watching her more closely, ask her friends for assistance or even involve her family in your quest for the answer to this question. Once you know, continue with the next logical steps. # velvet box # ring at eye level # make sure the box cannot be spotted (page 3) How long should a marriage proposal last? There is no perfect answer to this question. The general answer is that it should be long enough to convey all the emotions you intended to share but not so long so that she starts to yawn and bore herself to death. One of the ways to control the flow of the proposal ceremony is by timing the handover of the ring. There is a build up of anxiety within her that wants to see the ring - by delaying this moment, you can tease her and increase this craving desire. Be sure not to overdo this as the effect may backfire at you. Try to answer whether your girlfriend is one of those girls that truly believes in following the proper procedure of a marriage proposal. Depending on the answer, you can feel free to soften the procedure by adding some spontanity to the ceremony. Tip: make sure that you kneel down in a relatively comfortable spot. In case you plan to remain in that position for several minutes it may turn into a very painful experience. (page 4) Once you have received an answer, you are allowed to rise from your kneeling position. This step is typically followed by gently putting the ring onto her finger. And finally, as suspected, you can seal your vow with a romantic kiss. Some people prefer to stick to ancient traditions whilst others incorporate various unique aspects into their marriage proposals. As with everything in life, there are usually different ways to achieve one's ambitions. One thing that unites all couples is that this vow shall represent a commitment of loyalty and appreciation. And it should do so no matter whether the it is being exchangedwith bended knees or not. You are the one in charge and it is up to you to make the marriage proposal a successful one. We wish you the best and may you be successful in receiving a yes from your significant other. |
