How to propose? The Best Spring Proposal Ideas

Blooming flowers, sparkles of the returning sun, and the promise of romance in the air; it must be Spring.

The freshness of spring naturally lends itself to a stunning outdoor proposal, but an indoor proposal with a spectacular view is just as magical. The choice is yours.
If you are considering a Springtime proposal, we have put together a list of our favorite spots that are sure to bring a touch of magic to your big moment. Let this list inspire you to come up with a perfectly personal proposal for yourself and your beloved.

Gerald D. Hines Waterwall Park

Cascading water, hundreds of oak trees, local flora and stunning architecture soaring to 64ft – the Gerald D. Hines Waterwall Park is a picturesque spot that creates an unforgettable backdrop for your proposal. Spring is the perfect time to enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds this contemporary creation and with the park so abundant in beauty, little else is needed to bring your proposal to life.

The Japanese Garden at Herman Park

Reflective pools and Japanese styling come together to create this little pocket of paradise nestled in Herman Park. Tranquil and stunning, the garden is at its best in the Springtime when the swathes of delicate flowers begin to bloom.

Japanese culture is rife with romance and ceremony and adds a subtle but exciting theme to your special moment.

Jackson Hill Bridge at Buffalo Bayou Park

Bridges. Synonymous with romance the world over. Paris has Pont des Arts, or the love lock bridge, which has seen flocks of sweethearts seal their love with a padlock over the River Seine, but if Paris is a little far to travel, Houston has its own bridge with just as much magic. The Jackson Hill bridge at Buffalo Bayou park offers a stunning view of the Houston skyline, creating the perfect contemporary backdrop for you and your beloved. Enjoy a long walk together through Buffalo Bayou park. Enjoy the contemporary sculptures that adorn the beautiful grounds…and finish the day by asking the big question on this iconic bridge.
