A memorable, special proposal is a must, and you are probably racking your brain trying to figure out the perfect proposal idea.  But should you include family and friends in your proposal?  That is a tough question but the wedding proposal planners  at The Heart Bandits have put together some tips to answer that very important question.

What Would Your Partner Prefer?

Before you decide to bring in family, you need to make sure your partner would be okay with it. Some people would love nothing more than to have their whole family there to witness the big moment.  However, some people would rather it just be the two of you and in that case, they would prefer an intimate proposal.  Know if they would prefer proposal ideas that include family and then plan accordingly.  There are no do-overs!

Pick the Right Family Member

If you decide that your partner does want family there to see the proposal, you have to carefully select who you will invite.  Think about if there are any conflicts between family members, recent divorces, etc.  You want this day to be a happy and joyous occasion sans any drama.  Click here to read 5 Ways to Get Family Involved In Your Proposal.
