Planning to pop the question? From surprise getaways to low-key moments at home, here are romantic proposal ideas that are big on love and even bigger on style.
So you’ve met your person. You’ve shared laughter, inside jokes, maybe even a first date that included a movie you both agreed to never talk about again. Now you're ready to pop the question, and you want it to be unforgettable.
Good news: you don’t need a drone, fireworks, or a flash mob (unless that’s your thing, we’re not judging). With a little planning, a touch of creativity, and just the right ring, you can pull off a romantic and personal moment. OneDayOnly has you covered with romantic proposal ideas and the perfect jewellery to seal the deal.
Sometimes, the best proposal ideas are the most heartfelt. Think back to where it all began - your first date, the coffee shop you both loved, or the restaurant where you realised they were the one.
Recreate the setting, down to the playlist and what you both ordered. Add a scrapbook of your relationship, a note about your journey together, and end with the ring. Include little clues throughout the evening that lead to the final proposal spot.
Who said proposals have to be public? If your partner values comfort, privacy, and being dressed in pyjamas instead of tuxedos, then home is where the heart and the proposal is.
You can:
Add jewellery from OneDayOnly to the mix, and one of our ring boxes - hide them in plain sight, maybe a sparkling gold ring from our trending collection, and you've got a cosy, unforgettable moment.
This one's for the social butterflies. Call in friends and family to join the magic. Plan a picnic in the park or a game night that turns into a proposal surprise. Keep the crowd small unless your partner thrives in the spotlight.
Top it off with matching personalised T-shirts, a camera to capture the moment, and the most important: the engagement ring reveal.
If your love story includes hikes, beaches, or spontaneous road trips, then this one’s for you. Think: proposing at a scenic waterfall, under a starlit sky, or right after summiting your favourite trail. Proposals in nature come with built-in magic.
Not a hiker? No problem. Plan a proposal in a romantic cabin, or book a proposal photoshoot disguised as a “couple’s content day.” They’ll never suspect a thing. Wear comfortable shoes, and propose when the scenery (and your nerves) feel just right.
PS: Don’t forget the ring.
This is where your inner planner shines. Create a treasure hunt with meaningful stops, like your go-to cafe, the shop where you bought your first matching mugs, or a park bench that holds special memories.
Each location comes with a clue, and at the final destination - surprise! There you are, looking stylish, holding the jewellery box that changes everything. You can even include OneDayOnly's affordable gifts at each stop to make the experience more special.
Sometimes all you need is the right moment, the right words, and the perfect ring. Keep it timeless with a romantic dinner, candles, a bouquet of their favourite flowers, and our stunning proposal ring. Then, propose with confidence. After all, you’ve already won her heart.
It's not just about style, it’s about meaning. And you’ve got that covered.
Before you propose, you need to shop smart. Whether you're after engagement rings, wedding bands, or the full sparkle treatment, OneDayOnly’s jewellery collection delivers.
From minimalist styles to statement pieces, we’ve got jewellery trends that suit every occasion, taste, and budget. And yes, we make it easy to buy jewellery online, so you can save money without skimping on quality.
Planning a proposal is exciting, emotional, and let’s be real, a little nerve-wracking. But don’t stress too much about the “perfect” way to propose. What matters most is that it’s rooted in love, reflects your journey, and makes your partner feel seen.
So, whether you're planning a grand gesture or an intimate moment at home, do it your way. And don’t forget the ring. We’ve got plenty of those waiting for you on OneDayOnly.
Because when it comes to love, there’s no one-size-fits-all. But there is OneDayOnly.
