Although many people opt for a quiet and private proposal, sometimes a showy and exciting display of devotion is what’s really desired. When you decide to make a splash with your proposal, it can be hard to decide exactly what will add that extra zing. One resource which has been used to great effect in many proposal is street performers of all stripes.

Musicians

Music is an important part of many proposals, but a cd in a stereo or a pianist in a fancy bar is one thing; a couple of drummers or a man with a trumpet on a street corner is another. The great thing about street musicians is their ubiquity; she isn’t likely to take much notice of a musician until something tips her off, such as her favorite song or a specially rewritten song geared just toward her.

Dancers

Dancing proposals are a special kind of high-energy fun, and street performers can really add to the flair. If you plan it carefully, the sky is the limit; whether a couple of ballroom dancers doing a demo on a corner sweep you into their performance, or a flash mob jumps into a choreographed routine all around you, the result is sure to thrill her.

Magicians

Street magicians have all sorts of possibilities. They can provide a harmless distraction while you get ready, or can even be the catalyst for a great proposal; consider setting up a trick that ends with you ‘magically’ finding an engagement ring! Although magic does take more planning and coordination than other sorts of street performance, it really can add a fantastical touch to an already amazing proposal.

Artists

If your sweetheart is fond of art, then a street artist may be a great addition to your proposal. The possibilities are endless, whether you decide to work with a caricaturist or a mandala artist, or anything in between, art will bring creativity and inspiration into your proposal.
