If you plan on proposing this Christmas you now have 7 more days to get it all done.   Do you have everything in place?  See below for our Christmas Proposal Checklist!

  1. Do you have a plan? With only 7 days left, hopefully you have a solid plan.   Whether you decided to propose on Christmas at midnight Mass or write “Will You Marry Me” with Christmas lights, make sure you have it all planned out, including a plan B!  If you are proposing outdoors, do you have a plan in case it rains or snows?  Think of all the possible roadblocks and then create a backup.  PLAN, PLAN, PLAN!
  2. Do you have the ring? Please tell me you have the ring.  You only have 7 days left!  If you have not bought a ring yet you need to stop reading this immediately and go get one!  If you need a referral The Heart Bandits can help.
  3. Do you know how you are going to ask? Have you thought about what you will say to her before you pop the question?  Think of what you want to tell her and then rehearse it.  You will be so nervous when the moment comes you could forget everything.  But if you practice it enough it will come naturally.
  4. Will there be a post-celebration? One thing people don’t think of is what they will do the moment after you propose.  There should be some sort of celebration after she says yes.  Since you are proposing on Christmas and will probably be with family you could have them help you throw a surprise celebration.  If it is just the two of you, have some champagne and cupcakes waiting at a hotel or your place.  Just make sure there is something in place to continue the high.
  5. Hire a proposal planner if needed. It isn’t too late to hire The Heart Bandits to help you put the finishing touches on your proposal.  If you need some last minute advice, want to bounce your proposal idea off of us to see if we can enhance it, or if you need help pulling off the event , we are here to help.

Congratulations on finding the love of your life and enjoy your moment.  If you followed this checklist it will all go as planned.  Best of luck!
