You finally found the girl of your dream with whom you would like to spend the rest of your life. The excitement builds up as the revelation day comes to a close. How will you reveal that four-word question? Just a tip: make sure to avoid these marriage proposal mistakes.

1. Forgetting the ring.

Don’t be one of those who made the biggest and most embarrassing engagement blunder. Make sure the whole world knows how you feel about your girl with a ring that she will cherish all her life.

2. Proposing on a holiday.

This is supposed to be a special day that the best girl you have ever met wants to enjoy and remember as a day when she felt she was the only special person in the world. She won’t like bragging her ring when others would be showing off theirs on the same day as well.

3. Forget her close ties.

Especially if your girlfriend values her family much, it would just make her more grateful to see them involved in the event.

4. Hide the ring where it should not be.

Though it’s true that the more exciting the proposal process is, the more engaged your girl would be, but it would be catastrophic if, for example, she gets to eat the ring you hid in the ice cream or cake she is eating.

5. Letting it all out with someone other than her.

Don’t let the secret slip, especially if it’s not the intended person who would be hearing it. Be selective and know who you could trust.
