How to Propose During a Romantic Movie

Sometimes, the best proposal happens with someone else setting the scene. If you are both movie buffs, for example, you may want to propose during a romantic movie. Follow these steps if proposing during a romantic movie seems like a great idea for you.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Set up your plan so you have everything you need in order to make your proposal go smoothly.

2. See the movie before you propose so you know the right moment--this is a good step whether you are planning to rent the film to watch at home or to take her to a movie theater.

3. Schedule a movie date with your girlfriend. If you're going out, make time for dinner either before or after the film; if you're staying in, consider preparing her favorite meal.

4. Practice what you are planning to say so you can be sure it comes out the right way when you ask.
   

5. Pick her up for the date, enjoy the film and, when the moment comes, make your proposal.

Tips & Warnings

• Want to surprise her with the ring and not need to say anything at all? Consider hiding the ring in a bucket of popcorn or a bag or box of her favorite candy.
• Plan ahead for any questions she might ask about the wedding. In other words, think ahead so she knows you are serious about the proposal and have thought it through.
• Keep in mind that sometimes others at the movie might get upset about people talking and distracting them from the film if you are planning to go out to a movie to propose.
