A proposal checklist takes the swirl of ideas in your head and turns it into a handful of decisions. Once they are made, you can stop worrying and start looking forward to the moment itself.
I'm Leon, an accredited celebrant and proposal photographer based in Llandudno. This is the checklist I talk couples through when they first get in touch.
The Things to Decide
• The ring: chosen, sized as best you can, and kept somewhere safe.
• The place: somewhere that suits you both, whether that is a quiet beach, a lakeside or a favourite walk.
• The timing: a day with no rush either side, and a time of day with light you love.
• Your words: what you want your partner to hear before you ask.
• Family: whether to ask anyone first, and who to tell straight afterwards.
• A weather plan: a second spot or a spare date in case the wind or rain has other ideas.
• What comes next: a meal, a walk or a quiet evening to let it all sink in.
Your Words, Written Down
Most people know what they feel but freeze when it comes to saying it. How to write a proposal love letter shows how your feelings become something your partner can hear and keep.
Keeping It Quiet
The fewer people who know, the easier the secret is to hold. How to keep a proposal a secret covers the cover stories and the small giveaways to avoid.
What a Guided Proposal Takes Off the List
With the Guided Proposal Ceremony, we shape the plan together, I write and read your Love Letter aloud before you propose, then photograph everything that follows, with Polaroid keepsakes to take home. Your photographs begin your Love Story Album, and you receive a year of the Love Story Registry and 10% off a future elopement with Elope with Leon. It is £695.00 on the services page.
Anywhere You Choose
North Wales is home, but you can choose anywhere: a favourite walk elsewhere in the UK.
A good checklist leaves room for the part no list can plan: the look on their face. Tell me where you are with your plans and we will tick off the rest together.
