‘Senti wala’ proposal ideas

1. Sentimental Spots.
Using “your” spot is a beautiful way to make another memory close to your heart and begin a new life with your partner. Whether your spot is a first date location or an isolated place only the two of you know about, you can always dress it up with your favourite romantic Bollywood music and some flowers!

2. Pictures Are Worth a Thousand Words.
What else says ‘hopeless romantic’ more than decorating a room with tons of photos of the two of you over the years. The memory will be sentimental and another moment worth capturing.

3. Surrounded by Family and Friends.
Turn a casual family gathering into a moment to remember and an impromptu engagement party: we’re thinking ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’ family celebration vibes.

4. Make a Montage.
Like the montage in ‘Khabi Kushi Khabi Gham’ always leaving us in tears, create something similar by asking your friends and family to make a video of why they love you two together. They could even add childhood pictures and funny moments. Play the video and let your partner soak up all the love before asking the ultimate question.

5. The ultimate filmy proposal.
Yes, we had to bring up the iconic scene in ‘Dostana’ where John Abraham plays Priyanka’s favourite movie and then slow dances to it. The idea is perfect for the ultimate Bollywood movie buff, and they’ll never see it coming!

Go big and Bollywood

1. Starry-night proposal.
Go all out by writing your love in the stars at the Peter Harrison Planetarium in Greenwich. The Planetarium proposal team ensures everything runs smoothly, from providing fake e-tickets to maintain the surprise to give exclusive access to the venue with an astronomer on hand.

2. Underwater proposal.
Ask the divers at an aquarium to put on a proposal show inside their biggest fish tank. Give them a (waterproof) sign that says, “Will you marry me?” to hold up against the glass and then position yourselves for what will, at first, seem like feeding time.

3. Skywriting: Is there anything more over the top?
Plan a proposal which will leave the whole world (or at least most of London) watching. Write your love in the clouds and pop the question!

4. Take your love to incredible heights and propose in a hot air balloon.
An iconic and age-old proposal idea, add some of your favourite music, and you’re good to go!

5. Let Sparks Fly.
A ‘Malang’ love: attend a summer fireworks display. Propose under the canopy of lights or with a simple handle-held sparkler!
