You’ve clicked on this blog, so it can only mean one thing:

You’re planning to propose to your partner!

This is a huge step in your relationship and one that deserves careful planning. A proposal is more than just a question. It’s a symbol of your love. The longer you’ve been together, the more meaningful it should be.

That is why we’ve put together a checklist of what you should do:

The Ring

☐ Pick the style they love

☐ Double-check the size

☐ Hide it safely

The Family

☐ Decide if you want them involved in the moment

☐ Ask for their blessing beforehand if that’s important culturally or personally

☐ Include them subtly or make them part of the surprise for extra heartwarming vibes

The Outfit

☐ Dress to impress (but make sure you’re comfortable)

☐ Coordinate subtly if you want your photos to look extra cute

The Timing

☐ Pick the right moment: golden hour, dinner, or a casual day that’s meaningful

☐ Allow extra time for prep, travel and surprises

☐ Avoid rush hours or crowded places unless that’s part of the plan

The Location

☐ Choose somewhere meaningful (café, beach, rooftop, anywhere with memories!)

☐ Check accessibility, parking and traffic

☐ Add little touches like fairy lights or petals if possible

☐ If you have a decor planner, get updates often

The Flowers

☐ Order fresh flowers or their favourite blooms

☐ Include a small note for that personal touch

The Speech

☐ Prepare a speech that speaks from the heart

☐ Mention shared memories or inside jokes

☐ Practice once or twice, but don’t overthink it!

The Props and Extras

☐ Props can include a cake, music, or a small gift

☐ Assign a friend or hire a photographer to capture the moment

☐ Always have a backup in case of traffic, rain or forgotten items

The Backup

☐ Flowers still at the florist? Lalamove can deliver them fast

☐ Cake stuck at the bakery? Use Priority delivery to save the day

☐ Any last-minute props or gifts missing? Lalamove has you covered

In Case Of Emergency, Priority To The Rescue

Lalamove offers a Priority delivery option so your items can be delivered faster. Faster driver matching and prioritised delivery mean your special day can stay on track.

Planning a proposal can feel like a lot of work and nerve-wracking at times, but with the right preparation and a backup plan, everything will turn out great.

We hope she says yes. Congratulations in advance!
