As someone who helps guys with ideas for wedding proposals often, one common concern that people have is if they should propose in public. The main reason for their concern is what if there’s a crowd. Well as an expert proposal planner at The Heart Bandits, I can tell you that there are ways to make it work to your advantage. Here are some points I want to make for you if you’re wondering how to propose in a crowd.

The Spotlight

One of the biggest reasons to propose in public in front of a crowd is that your moment is in the spotlight. You get to feel like you are a star. Granted, some people may not like attention and that’s ok. But it does add an air of grandeur when your moment is such an attention grabber. It’s amazing if it happens somewhere where people can’t help but look.

Better and More Recognizable Locations

If you’re looking for a proposal location that has it all, it’s going to be hard to find a place that is completely empty. Public locations tend to have the best views and are more recognizable. The picture in this post was from an amazing marriage proposal on Santa Monica Pier. It would have been near impossible to secure a place this amazing that is not in public. Also, you will have the opportunity to visit this place whenever you want and reminisce on your special day.

Support From The Crowd

One thing as proposal planners that we’ve noticed is that the vibe right before a public proposal is amazing. When we’re setting things up, people around have the feeling that something very beautiful is about to happen. They are willing to help out at times and when the actual proposal does happen, they all can’t help but clap and cheer for the newly engaged crowd. It’s an amazing experience.

You Can Zone Into Your Partner

What I mean by this is that when you have a crowd around you, and you are proposing, you can literally zone everyone out and pay attention only to her. This creates a very special moment between you and your partner that is powerful. It seems to almost make time stand still because everyone is watching but you’re only focused on your partner.
